Bento-ing

Bento-ing has been a craze in the blogging world for the last 1 or 2 years, particularly in many mommies' blogs. I have also caught the bento-ing bug but for me, it is mainly to pack simple and healthy breakfast for DH and myself to bring to work.

I have started packing breakfast to work about 2 weeks ago. Reasons?
  • Morning is a crazy rush for all of us as I need to feed Anney, change & boil the water, wash and clean the bottles & then drop both my angels at my mom's house before heading for work......and the morning traffic could be quite stressful at times! Where got time to sip a cuppa of coffee at home?
  • The recent medical screening that DH & I did indicated that both DH and my cholesterol levels are at the high risk group! This could be due to all the nasi lemak, roti canai, fried meehoon, fried rice etc and whatever unhealthy foods we have been eating for breakfast.
  • My company has imposed a new policy and punctualiy at work is a MUST now. Do or die.....we need to clock in by 8.45am! No more traffic jam excuse lol!
Packing my breakfast to work would also ensures that I have a good start for the day and I definitely need all these energies! After all, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, right?

Anyway, this is my first attempt of bento-ing



  • Vegetable buns with avocado, ham and lettuce
  • Kiwi fruit and strawberry
  • Cherry tomatoes
