Last week both my boys’ schools were closed for a week to celebrate Hari Raya and the National Day, which means I had a week of bento break too.
Both the kids spent a great time with their grandparents, aunty and uncle whom came to visit us. They had brought along with them lots of presents for the boys. Too many of the goodies that I am still trying to give them one by one until now!
After a week’s holiday break both the boys were so reluctant to return to school. So I decided to make them speedy kyaraben bento each on the day when school re-opened, just to cheer them up.
I made them Stitch sandwich bento with the Stitch cookies cutter/mold that I bought some time ago. Handy cookies cutters/molds are among the gadgets besides food pick that I find really useful when it comes to speedy bento.
JY had a full portion of the bento which consists of two Stitch sandwiches, two strawberries and some pitted prunes. I made a lighter version for JQ with only two Stitch sandwiches and a strawberry.
Hope the boys will get over their blues soon and enjoy their schooling life!
