I should have uploaded this one last week but it got forgotten! Just found it hiding in my photo folder.

As Halloween is on its way, I thought I would get in the spirit with this bento box design.
A little Hello Kitty in fancy dress!
I made the cat hat out of nori and used cheese slices for the cat features. The ears are made from carrot and nori. Hello Kitty's features are made from nori and sliced cheese, and her bow is made from sausage.

Another Ghibli inspired bento box today. Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service.

To make this little kitty I shaped the rice and covered in nori, added cut sausage on the ears (I think chicken or ham would have worked better). Made the eyes from cheese slices and nori. The nose is a tiny bit of sausage, the bow tie is made from tomato.
Meow!

I made the cucumber and carrots into flowers. The octopuses are made from frankfurters and the panda is made from rice and nori.

So, here's my first attempt at making a bento box for my daughter's packed lunch.

I used frankfurter sausages to make the octopuses, teddy bear ears and arms.
The teddy bear is made from rice and features nori eyes, nose, mouth and bow tie.
I also included teriyaki veg and some raspberries.
