This was a week of ugly, ugly utilitarian bentos…so ugly that I didn’t even photograph them.
But, here are the treats I made up, bento-style, for my coworkers:

Bento #170: MINE!
Bento #171: mine, more leftovers, but I really like how this one turned out.
Bento #172, more chicken chow mein leftovers for me…
Bento #173: more leftovers for me for lunch and snack and probably breakfast…
That’s it this week…not terribly exciting or cute.

Kind of a medium week regarding bento making.
Bento #161
This was a little Halloween one I put together for Freya…gotta love the food markers. With the exception of one, the teddy bears are without legs…quite the gruesome Teddy Graham masacre…
Bento #162
This is all leftovers…don’t they look yummy?

Short bento week here. I just did not feel very motivated to make anything cutesy. Most bentos this week were utilitarian and easily qualified for The Ugle Bento award.
Here are three that weren’t quite so bad:
Bento #158
toddler dinner bento
Bento #159
Bento #160
Remember, although these may LOOK like a lot of food all crammed into those containers, [...]

Bento #144
Bento #145
Horribly out of focus meal, as my camera kept focusing on [...]

I didn’t make many pretty bentos, in fact, most that I made could easily fit into the tasty but ugly bento category, so I only have 4 that I’m willing to share. Also, I made rather cute breakfast bentos for both Freya and I this morning, but due to time constraints, they will simply start [...]

It turned out to be a rather bento-licious week.
Bento #127: The bento week started early with a dinosaur bento for Freya on Friday night. See the dinosaur, there in the back? Hey…it’s my first attempt at a dinosaur, cut me some slack.
Bento #128: Then for (Freya’s) Saturday lunch, it’s a frilly-cut pb&j sandwich, grapes, carrots, [...]

was horribly boring and uninspired. It consisted of leftovers, leftovers, and still more leftovers. Hopefully next week the funny little lunch muse will visit. Maybe the menu planning muse will visit as well.
