First of all here is a reminder for all who wish to join the 1st Anniversary Giveaway fun and the CSN Store Giveaway fun, please do so before the closing dates! Today is the last day for the 1st Anniversary Giveaway and 8 more days for the CSN Store Giveaway, so grab the chance before it is too late!
Last night my boy told me that he had spaghetti in school a while ago and he wanted spaghetti for his snack bento too the following day.
I showed him both the spaghetti and the Scooby Doo shaped pasta and needless to say, he landed on the pasta. Again he told me he wanted lots of sausages to go with the pasta.
I realized that every time he asked for spaghetti or pasta, he’ll ask for sausages too! I wonder why, or it is just a coincident.
Anyway, as requested, I made him a pasta snack bento today. Instead of tomato sauce, I sprinkled some furikake on the pasta. This would be so much less messy when he eats them in school. Usually if he have spaghetti/pasta with tomato sauce, very likely he would come home with tomato stain on his school uniform.
Besides the pasta and sausages, I put a boiled carrot decorated as an orange with facial detail and leaves food pick, and some real oranges too in the bento. Looking at the photo now, I should have made a Jack O’Lantern from the carrot instead and it can become another Halloween theme bento! Oh well, I have to make this some other time then.
Hope he enjoys his snack today and Happy Friday to all! Wish everyone a great weekend ahead!

波尼 – Lets hope the 3 “reasons” you stated out the other day will come true, then I’ll go there 3 more times!
Pasta with furikake! I would never thought of this combi. Will try this next week. My kids eat pasta but not the tomato sauce.
Karen – Hope your kids will like it that way. My boy does, but for me I still prefer tomato sauce.
I am with Bobo. I thought you will do Jack for the carrot. But the orange boy is so cute! And you still have plenty of time to carve carrot Jack. Have a nice weekend Ai Ping
Lia Chen – Yeah, somehow it just slipped from my mind. I shall make one later
Wish you a great weekend too!
I love orange very much and the one in your box looks so tempting
tatabonita – Oh yes, orange is one of my boy and my favourite fruits too especially in this hot weather!
Cute bento, it’s perfect! I was wondering how furikake would taste on pasta! Oh yeah, jack o lantern would be good!
Lyndsey – Thank you! I would say I still prefer pasta with tomato sauce, but my boy likes it with furikake
I shall make a carrot Jack O’Lantern soon.
Hi I would like to attend your class on bento set for my son….he is going to be 2 soon and he is a picky eater:(
Yee Ling – Welcome to KidsDreamWork and thanks for your interest in my classes. I’m currently arranging some and will definitely inform you once I confirm. May I know which location you will opt for? Is Kepong feasible to you? Wanted to gather thoughts on the location especially whether it is convenient to all interested friends.
Wonder I can get those cute Scooby Doo shape pasta from Cold Storage here. My boys would definitely love this as Scooby Doo is their favorite.
anncoo – Hope you can find one! So far that is the only character pasta available in Cold Storage too.
