Happy Monday!! Hope everyone had a great weekend and is ready to start the new week. Happy bugs bento for this morning. It was very quick and simple to make from onigiri wrapped in nori and put some face details. Food picks for bug's antenna ... whoalah! only needed 5 minutes to create the happy bug. I cooked sauteed chicken & bacon with celery, mun tofu, tamagoyaki, and steamed carrot flowers. Put the foods together in one box. Then use silicone cups for the happy bugs, just to keep the onigiri dry. I will only make 3 bentos this week as my kids want to have their lunches from school catering on Tuesday & Thursday. And they want another Pokemon bento on Wednesday. So I have to start looking on what I should make for them. I might need to read their Pokemon Dictionary or search from Pokedex.
Please check out Bento4Japan HQ for the latest news and Bento4Japan auction on eBay is still going on.

love this unique take on bugs with the black-and-white contrast and bright antennae! can't believe you make such cuteness in only 5 minutes, you are a bento master! :-)
happy monday to you too lia!
Cute bugs! Happy Monday to all of you. I have to use the guidebook to see what the Pokemon characters look like too. Good thing we have the handy reference :D
Happy monday Lia dear! So cute bugs! Fun and nice quick concept ^__^

I have seen the tip, thanks Lia! I will surely try it out and hopefully this weekend :). The two bugs are just adorable, I love how you use food picks as the antenna!
@megan : Thanks a lot Megan! Not a bento master but these bugs really don't need so much cut out details. Just use cutter and puncher to decorate the face, that's all. Easy to prepare for busy Monday morning ;)

I love your bento boxes, so lovely to just look at, I wouldn't want to eat them! I tried to make a bento box today (my first one ever!) and hopefully one day I'll be as skilled as some of the other bento box makers I've seen out there, such as you. Great blog!
So simple but so cute!
