bento 139 – pokemon eevee and hello kitty

s made a special charaben bento request. he wanted an aura pokemon called lucario!

hmnn… this will probably need hours considering the colour and details involved! yes, if it is on a weekend, as a special project that we can do together. definitely not something i would want to attempt in the wee morning. =P

he chose a few more and we finally agreed to this, evolution pokemon - eevee, as it looked pretty simple. as it turned out, today’s bento is an example of poor planning. sigh…

the colour! this bento would look much better with a lighter background like rice or bread. too late to do anything as i cooked the noodle first. eevee is a pokemon. that’s all i know, the kids shared what it does but i cannot recall.  i only know pokemon can evolve from one stage to another, and possess special powers. i cooked 2 eggs separately, added one with dark and sweet sauce.

seing the kor kor (brother) chose a pokemon, k wanted one too (above spike ball pokemon named togepi), but later changed her mind in the morning.

i suggested a flower and girlie character (a hello kitty?) cheese sandwich, and she said ok!

so finally, bear cutter series no 10 – a hello kitty in a teddy suit.  it can be difficult to find a hello kitty cutter besides being expensive. i improvised with the bear cutter, we still can make a hello kitty without a hello kitty cutter. =)  used an oval cutter to make a ‘hole’ for kitty’s face. k had mini cheese and omelette sandwiches.

update: submitted this to shannon’s what’s for lunch. shannon is donating a food item for every lunch link up.

besides hello kitty, there are many other characters that can don the teddy suit. hmnn… that could be another series. =)

here is a round-up of the bear cutter series.

hope you had had enjoyed the series as much as i enjoyed making them for my kids. i love the bear cutter ! =)
