Belated Happy New Year

HELLOOO 2011!! It's rather late though. I finally got to return from hibernation. My bentomaking has started. So this is my very first posting of the year. Well should I share my New Year bento resolutions? -- Although you may not be curious about it I want to write it here to admonish myself. Tadahh... To make more simply, to not take much time, to pack neatly, to make everyday as far as possible, to make for myself as well, to eat delectably, that's all. Aw one more thing, I hope to share as many recipes of mine as I can.


Strawberry Layer Cake

I started the New Year with this cake. Yes I know, it has nothing to do with bento hehe. I just like this photo actually. My bentoing of this year started with a freaking simple and boring bento. I guess I was not completely awake from hibernation at that point lol!

Maybe this time I won't write each menu of these. Feel free to ask me if you are curious about it.

    Glad you looked at these bentos! All of them aren't veggie but a lot of vegetarian people around the world enjoy their own style bento. You could make it with only vegetable foods and substitutes.
