BentooOOoOoOOo!

Hello!

This is such a nice day~ I don't know why but I feel good! Last night I went to bed at 1:30 in the morning and I woke up at 8:30 feeling more in shape than ever LOL! On the last month I've been working near 40 hours each week, and I had only 1 off day per week XD! Plus I've started back to eat healthy for 9 days already so I guess these are the reasons I feel good.

I haven't shopped for weeks tho! That's kinda sad but at least I have money weee. Anyways, this isn't the reason of my post. I received my bento stuff something like 2 days after the last post I made LOL but of course I didn't update right away. I also wanna apologize for all the post about HEY THIS IS WHAT I BOUGHT! But I'm no more sewing / drawing / creating whatsoever.

I don't feel like it since I work all the time. I wanna start back to sew tho, now that I'm all settled down in my new house. I've had a couple ideas on what I could sew I only need free time haha. So yeah, be patient and someday I'll post other things than just showing off my latest purchases, lol.




I already showed you the heart shaped sandwich cutter and maybe the silicone pink jelly/cake molds. What I got from Ebay is the two star shaped jelly molds. I haven't tried them yet so I don't know if they are good quality (I don't see why they wouldn't be tho) You can't tell by the picture but the molds are very small so they do go into a bento box (fortunately LOL)

Then another boring picture;


All my paper molds (yeah two of them are halloween paper molds :D This is gonna be into my October lunches for sure haha) I also have a bunch of metallic molds (they have the same shape as the paper molds) which can be use for dozen of things; Bowls, Muffins, Cakes, Jelly, Mini Tarts... it can also be used as a cookie cutter mwah ah ah, I'm so smart.

Last things on the picture are the flowers shaped metallic cutter. They can be use to cut anything (ham, cheese, vegetables, fruits, cookies and such) I used one already and it's so cool! I cut cucumbers with it and they tasted better being flower shaped, I promise.

Onto the real shnitzel now;


Tadaah! So lets start by the two egg molds on the right. So basically they are egg molds (lol) in the shape of an heart and a star~ I haven't used them yet but I'm really exciting to do so. I hope it truly works and the eggs won't be all wonky LOL BTW it's for boiled eggs.

Then all the other things came together in a package. Again, it can be used for tons of things (ham, cheese, cookies etc) the shapes are a shrimp, a tomato (which is turned upside down on the picture) an egg,two different size circles, some peas, a shell and an octopus~ As you can see their are also different faces (which are all interchangeable) And the whole thing also came with a pair of tweezers plus a toothpick to work with.

Talking about toothpicks...


These are just awesome. It's the first thing that made me want to do bentos LOL Of course on the picture I only showed one (I have something like 10 of each kind) They can be use on anything, really. On eggs, meat balls, cheese square, fruits, cherry tomatoes, and more. I will buy even more decorative toothpicks because I saw a bunch really nice! I want the pandas & bunnies ones so bad XD! I also want the Hello Kitty sandwich cutter :3

The second things that made me wanna do bentos;


OMG these bottles are epic! So first of all, you can see the Mayo and Ketchup bottles (the egg & tomato thing)I guess these will be more like vinaigrettes, dips or mustard bottles for me. I don't see why I would need Ketchup and Mayo. Now that I'm thinking about it, the best dip EVER is Ketchup & Mayo mixed together! OMG yeah, so they will definitely be Ket and Mayo bottles LOL. Problem solved.

Then there are the little sauce bottles. They're shaped as a tulip, a random flower, an heart and a star. These would be use for soy sauce, olive oil or even vinaigrettes. They are also really small so they can be insert into the bento box (like between or onto the food)~

Btw the Ketchup & Mayo bottles are a little too big to fit into the bento box. They are around 10cm tall so I'll just put them loose into my bento bag~

This is the said bento bag/pouch;


This is it with the bento box inside;


There is not much to say about it...it's really cute and it really reminds me mangas LOL They all have these in mangas. The way the pouch closes allow to secure everything inside completely. There are also enough room for me to put the bento box (I hope) the instruments and I can add other things. I can't add a bottle of juice tho. Anyways I always get drinks from the soda machine at my job.

Talking about the fork&spoon (LOL);


Et voila~ I like the way they really fit with the bento box XD! I guess they are supposed to be kids instruments but who cares~ I also appreciate that there is a case coming along. Like so I won't have to let them loose into the pouch.

Now here we go with the spamming with useless pictures;


This is the said bento box.

I could have took only one picture really but I wanted to show every details...


This is only the first tier. It's smaller than the one above. And as you might see it has no separation. I've seen this one usually used for desserts and/or snacks (but you use it like you want lol)

Then the second tier (above the first one);


This one is way bigger .__. and it has a divider~ So it's mostly used to put the main meal in it. Oh btw the divider can be placed anywhere or not even be there lol.

The last tier (which I wouldn't call a tier o__O);


Here's where you place the chopsticks (yeah they came with the bento box :D) my instruments even have room enough to go in (I'd rather use the proper case) and this is also where you can add 50¢ for your soft drink because it doesn't fit into the bag, remember? Yeah.

The pink band is the elastic to secure all the tiers together. I saw one on ebay with strawberries on it so I'm probably gonna buy it soon.

Then this is the whole thing;


Tadah~Everything even fit into the elastic, it's great~

This is all I got! Like I said there are a couple of other things I want, I don't know when I'll purchase them I guess I'm gonna use what I have for now. Then I also bought 3 movies one decade ago;


Planet of the Apes (because I wanna see the new one too). LCTB and the Cradle of Life, apparently it's the sequel (I thought it was the first) so yeah I'm gonna wait until I get the 1st before watching this one.

And Moulin Rouge, which I wanted to see really badly because there is my new favorite actor (after Tomie of course) Ewan McGregor~ I've already watched it and I liked it! I like the name of Nicole's character, Satine. It's cute.

As for now I'm so hungry haha. I'm gonna go and leave you right there! Byebye friends~
