Today's Packed Food...Bento 6

This should be Bento 6. This is what daughter brought to school...after one week of break, this 'engine' is taking some time to crank up. Half the time in a daze at work these last two days....need coffee to perk me up so that I can stay focus....(shake, shake head!)

This is the first half of the packed food. Bread is toasted with garlic butter. This Winnie takes more work than the other one. The sausage 'terbalik' liao...flower should be on the other end. It's supposed to be a tulip but doesn't quite look like one. For dessert, apple cut in the shape of the flower and soaked a while in salt water to prevent oxidization. The green grapes are for the colour.

The other half made up of a star shape egg and some more bread...tiny pieces cut into flower and teddy bear shapes. I like the teddy bear shapes...very cute.....it has given its heart away. 8) The pineapple container is for the soya sauce...for the egg. All she'll need to do is just squeeze it gently and droplets will come out! Cute! The Penguin box contains some jam, just in case she wants to give an extra oomph to her bread!

It was a mad rush getting this ready. Left the house slightly later than usual... but worth it as she was looking forward to what she can bring to school. Yesterday I made pancakes shaped like houses and circles for her to bring. Her friends think they are bought....not likely for them to be made by the ma! LOL! Kids these days are programmed to think that nice things can only be found from the supermarket shelves!

This morning heard over the news that the Cabinet will only decide whether to reduce the petrol pump prices after the last Cabinet Meeting for the month. Whatever happened to the bi-monthly reviews? Another one of those lepas batuk di tangga statements? So what next? TNB raised the electricity tariff soon after the increase...now fuel prices on the downward slide...no reduction in tariffs???? Looks like 'lip service' is all that the politicians are good at.
