I've not done any bentos for the past week cos I was too busy and too tired. Since I had a little time today, I made 2 little caveboys that was inpired by the Bento Book which Lia gave to me.
Last week we had the gas-man to check on my cooking hob and he confirmed it was leaking so they disconnected it and I am without any cooking gadget till we buy another replacement. So, I'm left with making 1 pot meals using either the steamer, rice-cooker, slow cooker or oven. It's not too bad now that I'm getting used to it. :)
Our 1 pot-meal for dinner today is Beef Stew with rice instead of potatoes. It's a little cool tonight as it was raining in the afternoon till early evening so it is so wonderful to tuck into steaming hot rice and Beef Stew, yums!
I used tomato ketchup to tint 1 of the caveboys red/orangey and tumeric dissolved in water for the other yellow caveboy. However, the ketchup didn't make the boy look orangey enough. Maybe colouring would be better. Well, next time. :)

These are fantastic tono-mama, and I love the bone picks. Very appropriate. Isn't it fun to have a bento book with lots of great ideas for inspiriation? Glad to see you back again. :)
Sonoma Bento - Tks! Yes, I love these bone picks! It took me so long to find them. The bento book is so informative! But they are so intricate.. I cant see myself replicating them. :) I don have such deft hands anymore. :(
