Bento #43 Adult bento




Ramadan is here, I might be too late to say this, but I would like to say Happy fasting month for all my friends who celebrate.

I havent blogged for long long time, the reason is because my kid is stil having summer holiday..no school, no bento needed.

However, since now is ramadan and the canteen in my hubby's office is not allowed to sell any food, I then have to prepare him some food to bring.
I've never prepared an adult bento, I hope what I've prepared is not too bad ^_^. Nothing really fancy here..nothing cuteness also..I dun think my hubby would be so thrilled to see all those bunny rabbit..or cutie cutie things...ha ha..

So, here what I've prepared for him..
1. Chili prawn
2. Homemade egg taufu, topped with fried shallot, bird chilli and spring onion.
3. Fried anchovies.
4. For his dessert, I prepared grapes, and dates.


He came back home surprised to see what I've prepared for him...^_^. ..excited when he's excited too...

Well, honestly I was doubt to post those bentos..but hey I thought, who knows that it could inspire others too..
My gal will have summer holiday now for almost 3months.. she will start the KG1 in 25Sept.. meanwhile, I have to think hard what to post here to during the holidays...haha..otherwise, my blog will be very dusty if leave it too long empty...hmm...
Am very happy however with the long holidays, because the wheather is getting hotter..and very humid too. ...in average now is 43c during daytime, at nite around 35c..but it's very humid, that sometimes I feel so suffocate to breathe..
So, I should say..Happy Summer holiday to all of you!
