Good ol' Standby Bento in a Hello Kitty Bento Box
This was from Thursday. I didn’t have time to post a picture. 😦 It’s pretty much a good ol’ standby bento in a Hello Kitty bento box. I timed myself on this bento, and it took me 8 minutes. I think I could have done it in 5, but it took me some time to figure out what to do with the apples. LOL. So, you got the apple flowers again. I need to get more inspiration from my recent additions to the bento book collection, but with the holidays here, I seem to be concentrating on gift, cards and Santa pictures.
Not to digress (and not related to bentos) but today we stood in line for an hour to take a picture with Santa. When Ms. Little Bubbles was a baby, we were casually shopping in a mall and saw that Santa was free, so we decided to have her take a picture with him. Then when she was two, I was at the same mall with my friend and we again saw that Santa (the same Santa) was not busy. So, we took her picture with Santa. Well… little did I know that I was going to get sucked into this Santa thing. I now refuse to take Santa pictures at any other place because I want the same Santa in all my pictures. And according to my kids, that’s the REAL Santa and all the other Santas we see at other malls and stores are fake. 🙂 LOL. I usually like to take my Santa pictures before Thanksgiving to avoid the crowds, but life got busy and we didn’t have time. Thus…. today we stood in line for 1 hour!! My goodness. Thankfully, the kids were all happy and smiles when it was their turn. I guess they knew they had to be “good” for Santa. In fact, now that I think about it, all the kids that were waiting in line were amazingly calm and good. It must be the holiday spirit!
