I am still in a happy mood today since my little boy told me he love me…hehehe. Therefore, I had a very good sleep yesterday night and woke up early this morning to make a charaben bento for eldest son.
I made three giant button sandwiches with white color breads and chocolate raisin bread. First I cut the bread into round shape with a cup. Then, on each round bread, I use the bottom of the cup to make the inner circle on the bread to make them look like a button. Cut the ham and cheese with the cup too, and then place it in between two pieces of round breads as a round sandwich. Finally, used a piece of drinking straw to cut 4 holes in the center of the sandwiches. Let’s have a closer look on the giant buttons sandwiches.
A chocolate button sandwich and two white button sandwiches. Simple to make and delicious to eat…hehehe.
There are some boiled sausages, grapes and a flower quail egg with I cut into half.
Tomorrow will be the last day of school for this term, then follow by two week of mid-term holidays. I am not sure whether I will be making any bento tomorrow but am sure that there won’t be any bento posts during the holiday…heheh. Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to wish all bento mama and children have a joyful holiday ahead. To all my bento pals too, have a great weekend ahead.
