Bento # 61 - all about cars

Found a picture of a bento, languishing away in another camera. You reckon it's the early signs of Alzheimer? From the picture, it was easy to tell that the bento was made about three weeks ago, during puasa period and mid-autumn festival. Contents: Car shaped sandwiches, three layers with nutella and cheese; two car shaped quail eggs; car shaped cup with dates, raisins and apricot. And the jelly mooncake which was given by someone.

The car shaped cutter is actually for vegetables, but I found it to be the perfect size for the 2 and 4 year old. The 2 year old can eat a whole bunch of these bread cutouts, which she would otherwise reject. She likes her bread plain, with the cheese at the side.

By the way, the raisins and apricots are organic. The non-organic dried fruits are usually preserved with sulfur to maintain the colour. Unfortunately sulfur triggers boylet's eczema and gives me puffed up lips, which is sexy but super itchy... hehe.... For more info on dried apricots, check this link.
