Bentolicious #236
Heart Couples

Little A was feeling really sad and lonely on Monday because his sister was in a school camp. Being the youngest one in the family makes him so attached to Big A. They are very close to each other although sometimes they are also like other kids ... They still fight (not physically though) and often argue about something and nothing. Hubby is still in his business trip to Argentina, so only me and Little A at home on Monday. He had an exception to sleep in my bedroom. Big A returned from the school camp yesterday evening. I know Little A couldn't wait to see his sister because he kept asking when she would come back.

Big A, on the contrary, was pretty excited about her school camp. She already made a check list for things that she should bring from many days ahead. I kept telling her so many things for her to remember that I wasn't sure she would remember all. Just me, as usual, being worried about her sleeping outside from home for the first time. The school camp was kind of ritual for Grade 6 students as they will have the Government exams in few more months. So this camp was about motivating and boosting their confidence. Hopefully, they all can give their best to do the exam. I hope Big A will really get the benefits and purposes of this camp.

The past 2 days, the lunch bento for Little A was about soup and fried rice. I didn't add cute characters inside the box so I didn't have any cute bento to post. Today, I only made 1 bento for Little A because Big A has 1 day holiday. She has to practiced a group music performance with her friends for tomorrow's music test. I dropped her this morning to her friend's house and she will finish before lunch time. I used heart shaped rice mold, small cutters to make heart couples. Need some inspirations for tomorrow's bento :)

Inside the box : rice, stir fry veggies, and braised soy chicken with baby potatoes.
