This morning, I woke up with a terrible sore throat and very phlegmy. Not good.. 
My maid didn’t fix breakfast for the kids… Not good. So I quickly put together these sandwich. Nothing special, really.. I really need to get more moulds. I think Aiden and Cait is getting a little bored with these.. 
For some reason.. It has been a very tiring day for me. I feel like I have not stopped since I woke up this morning and now I’m feeling like I’m gonna be sick. Thats why today’s bento also very ‘kalam kabut’. Thought I’ll make something different for them today, so I cooked some cabonara with tri-color pasta. I didn’t actually planned the ‘octopus’ it just kinda pop into my head as I have seen it in some bentos (I just don’t remember who’s) As you all know that I have not received my punchers yet, so I got creative and used my paper puncher (from my scrapbooking stash) for the mouth, and black sesame seeds for the eyes. Unfortunately… when I asked Aiden what it looks like, he said ‘Like a ghost.” Sigh! Hokay…. ya, ya.. I know. Need more practice Mommy! What do you all think? I know it’s not perfect, but honestly… look like a hantu meh? 
Lol!! More reason to ‘invest’ in some more bento tools… 
Ultra Cool Daddy left for Perth (again) tonight. He very ‘manja’ now… Also wants his bento for work.. As he hardly eats meat now, so his bentos are quite easy to put together. He likes his salads and raw stuff. *insert roll eyes here* SoI really don’t mind fixing him something to go. Not like Air Asia feed their crew well.. Yes, they do get a crew meal but apparently it’s really pathetic, furthermore, it’s not up to Ultra Cool Daddy’s standards… No salads and fresh fruit. o this is what he brought to work today. The photo is really bad, and honestly didn’t do justice to my bento.. *blush* I was rushing to send him and get the kids some dinner. So I just simply took a snap of it but here it is…
It’s tuna onigiri, prawn and avocado salad, edamame and dragon fruit. I hope he likes it.
This is what I made for Cait this afternoon for lunch. I sneaked some veg in the sandwich, hoping that she wouldn’t notice it but my mission failed. She tasted it and spat everything out! Panicked that she would give up on everything I quickly removed the rest…
Apart from that, she loved it! 
I must find some other ways for her to eat those veggies… Afterall, that was kinda why I thought of making bentos for them.
I’ve ordered some punchers to make those eyes and noses from Arlene. You can check out her blog for more details. And I’ve also bought some other stuff too.. I’m dying to get my hands on them soon!!!
