School Lunch @ 27 August 2009

Today's lunch is simple - just some grilled chicken breat and sambal fish. Since I did not include any vegetables, I have given her 2 portions of fruits :)

I also prepared Egg Tart for her snack. Hopefully, she will finish all. Hubby told me that Misha will definately finish what I have prepared for her since she loves my food very much .. well .. hopefully she able to finish all.

Today will be a more relax day - no extra activities BUT still will have lots of homeworks from school and she has to do ABRSM Past year questions in personal capacity since her exam will be held during the 1st week of October. Imagine, sitting for Grade 2 but only started learning since late June... hopefully she can pass :)

That's all for now .. till then, take care :)

School Lunch @ 25 August 2009

Basically, I have prepared nearly the same things for Misha today. Her lunch consisted of Prawn Sambal, Fried minced pork with potatoes, Sweet corn and some vegetables. I also gave her longan as fruits of the day :)

Close up of the lunch .. :)
That's her lunch today -she requested for sausages and bread tomorrow since she will have her vocal class during lunch and only have 10 mins for lunch :) Need to think what to prepare besides the sausage/bread :)

Got to go .. bye and have a nice tuesday!

School Lunch @ 24 August 2009

School started two days ago ... but I did not prepare any lunch for her because for the first few days, she actually need to "take care" of her new friend-ie a new student.

Misha has to bring the girl around and accompany her until she is comfortable with the school environment :)

But yesteday, she told me that if possible, she would like me to prepare some lunch for her so that she can eat rather than eating sandwich from the school :)

Anyway, I have prepared something simple for her so that she can finish them quickly :)

Let's have a look :)

one of the two new lunch bag :) She loves KUROMI now ... dunno why :)

For snack time and lunch time ..

Rice with some sambal ikan bilis/fried minced meat with potatoes and some veges; a small portion of oranges; sweet corn (in the blue wrapper); some junks! and Mr Juicy orange juice :)

That's her lunch for the day - yeah .. I supposed to decorate the rice .. with whatever cute things but .. NOOOO time!! I actually woke up at 730am .. which is considered late. Anyway, will try to do better next time :0

Till then.. bye!

YES! Monday, again! Monday meant shorter lunch time since Misha has to attend meeting from 1150 till 1220 and she only has 30 minutes for her lunch.

Since she only has 30 mins, I decided to prepare something that she can eat easily :) Let's see what I have prepared :)

little rice wrapped with SPAM/sweet corn and a deep fried prawns :)

and of course .. FRUITS!

Simple, right? But she loves them :) Hahahha .. easy for me and easy for her .. :)

Misha requested for spaghetti for lunch today. I have prepared the sauce a night before. So, what I need to do in the morning is to boil the spaghetti and decorate it.

Since I have only like 20 minutes to prepare the spaghetti and pack them - I have decided to decorate it with something simple. Cubs came into my mind!

Let's see my cute yet simple cubs!

more things can be done onto the cubs - like color it .. decorate with accessories eg ribbons/tiara etc etc . but .. me lazy hahaha :)
three little cubs sat on a pool of spaghetti :)

Misha's lunch for the day!

That's all for today! Bye!

Bento #62 @ 29 April 2009

29 April 2009

Woke up quite early today. Usually, will wake up at about 6am every morning. Translate chinese for Misha so that when she is awake, she can read and answer questions online. She has to do this EVERY morning. Since our chinese language are absolutely zero, we need to work harder. Anyway, it is still under our control so, we are happy about it!

Back to bento ... today's bento supposed to be a surprise for Misha. I have seen many bento-ers actually prepared "car" bento for their kids and being "kiasu" I also wanted to try.

Misha requested for salmon for lunch today. Besides salmon, I have prepared a new "dish" for her. Sweet potatoes!!

Bento #60 @ 24 April 2009

24 April 2009

Today's bento is leftover from yesterday. ... Not actually leftovers lar but it was a special request by Misha. She wanted to have the same dishes for her lunch. So, I deliberately took out a small portion of each dish for her. If you are interested in the recipe, do visit here for recipes.

Unsuccessful panda sandwich .. hahahahaha

Supposed to give Misha the above panda sandwich as her school lunch. But decided not to because I personally felt that they do not really look like panda at all .. hahaha .. looked like some funny creatures.

When Misha had that for breakfast instead, she reminded me many times to post it because she firmly said that they DO look cute :)

Anyway, as requested, I will post this :)

Bento #59 @ 23 April 2009

Misha had requested for salmon for her school lunch. Bought a slice of salmon from the supermarket - marinated it overnight then, pan grill it on the morning :)

Let's have a look at her simple lunch

pan-grilled salmon/french beans/brocolli/grilled potatoes/sweet corn and grapes :)

After school : - Misha finished everything in the lunch box! She loved the salmon very much and she said that the salmon tasted very nice. Told her, of course the salmon was nice, it was marinated with so many different ingredients and it was left overnight in the fridge.

She asked me to prepare salmon again for her next week - guess I need to go to supermarket again on Wednesday to get a slice of salmon for her :) Ok lar, that's all for now .. bye and take care!

Bento #58 @ 20 April 2009

Today is the first day of school after the Easter holidays! I have prepared lunch for Misha. Let's have a look what's for her lunch :)

Tomato rice/grilled beef/tandori prawns/brocolli/cherry tomatoes decorated with two small eggs as cute looking chicks!

After school :- Misha mentioned that the grilled beef is nice BUT the tandori prawns are a bit wet. Maybe I should get rid of the "rempah" before grilling them. She loves the tomatoes rice very much and guess what I had the rice for lunch. Only the rice and it was tasty!!

Bento #57 @ 11 March 2009

11 March 2009

Misha will have TOM with her mates during lunch time today and she requested for sandwiches so that it is easier for her to eat.

I really do not know what type of sandwiches she wanted, so I just prepared ham sandwich for her. Simple and nice, I hope :)

Cut the bread into car shapes - decorated with leftover hams and cheese :)

Hope she loves it!

misha's lunch consisted of one egg tart/one "sandwich" with SPAM and another "sandwich" with sambal ikan bilis"/some tit bits and of course another container of fruits :)

That's what she had for lunch today and guess what, she told me that the "sandwiches" looked like gong gong (grandfather) and poh poh (grandmother) hahaha ... silly little girl !

26 February 2009

Today I have prepared some rice for Misha's lunch in school. I also prepared some rolled eggs. The rolled eggs were secured by cute duckling picks that I bought long time ago :). Besides the eggs, she will also have some sambal and fried minced beef as dishes :)

The rice is decorated with very small flowers that can in three colors :) ie made from cucumber, cucumber skin and carrots .. they are really lovely. I personally think that the smaller the flower, the cuter they are :)



Ok .. that's for her lunch today. .. hope she likes it :)
