Back to basics
Gosh, it has been a while, hasn’t it? Things have changed so much for me too.
Since the start of the new year 2010, I have been packing lunch boxes for my son. His school serves lunch too, but I figured if I pack his lunch for him, I would also be able to tell what he eats and what he doesn’t. It will mean more work for me in the mornings, but it will be well worth it.
For now though, I can only manage simple bentos for my picky eater. He likes his alphabets and numbers, so I try to inject an element of those things once in a while.
This is a really simple bento of spaghetti marinara with chicken meat spelled out in his name, cut up sausages and sliced apples. I mix the spaghetti with a little bit of grapeseed oil to avoid it from sticking. Olive oil works too, I believe.
good to know u r back. good idea with the alphabets.
