Hello Kitty pasta Bento
September 16, 2010
My girls haven´t been so hungry lately and the reason might be they are still recovering from being sick this week. Pikkusiili ( that means “little hedgehog”, our 3 yo ) didn’t sleep well last night and today I am very tired too.
I wanted to make something easy and light with vegetables. Luonnonvoima (that means “nature force”, our oldest daughter ) asked me to have strawberries and I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to carry out her wishes.
Contents of the boxes: bow-tie pasta with vegetables (zucchini, carrot, tomatoes, onion and sun-dried tomatoes) , basil and parmesan cheese, carrot sticks, grapes and strawberries. HK head made with bocconcini mozzarella , nori and a cheddar flower.
Hello Kitty is always a good option to uplift little girls isn’t she?

Yes, totally agree about mini HK cheering us up! Isn’t it great to make her face out of whatever? Can even make a ball of cheese cute, hehe! Lucky girls, I hope everyone feels better and gets lots of sleep soon (mommy included).

The weirdest thing is that I didn’t plan to make any obento yesterday :). I was cutting the mozzarella for our portions and I started “seeing” hello kitties XD. In the end it was quite fun and quick ;)
Thanks Sheri for your lovely comment and huge support!

That is so smart using boconcini like that! Yes, HK is a great mood uplifter! I’m so glad to hear your girls are getting their appetites back. They’re on the mend. Yay! Hope this means you get some good sleep too. ; )
