My First "Bento" attempt

It was a school holiday this Monday when I almost forgot to prepare dinner for my girls. After clearing some work, I decided to cook up a simple meal for them.

This was the first time when I cooked rice and dishes ever since my helper left on 11th May.

My first steamed rice, my first smooth silky steamed egg... The former turned out too moist, hence, I was carried by a whimp to mould the rice into balls... After putting 2 balls of rice in each bowl, they looked like a snowman already... I pulled out a few pieces of seaweed and cut them into eyes and mouth...

"Mummy, you are awesome!", exclaimed Renee when she saw her dinner was so special that evening...

"Yeah! My favorite egg egg! Thank you, mummy!", shouted Phoebe as she jumped up and down beside the dinner table.

I also made a "yucky" fish soup with carrots and black beans, using my soy milk maker... It tasted okay to me. Well, Phoebe finished all of her serving happily. Renee, however, only tried a few sips and concluded that it was not her "bowl of soup", and she couldn't finished the cheese sausage and rice ~,~

I was motivated to try other bento settings when I have time... Only if I could make them with Japanese pearl rice, though this Thai fragrance rice was good enough ^^
