Spring is being confusing this year. The weather won't make up it's mind. It is way too cold to be almost May! Georgia is supposed to be warm and comfy this time of year and instead I'm freezing. I want to start planting. When do I get to play with flowers?
In the bento: Two onigiri with scrambled tofu, purple potato flowers, cherry tomato, pistachios, carrot flower, steamed broccoli and chunks of mango.
The potato flowers are decorated with sesame seeds and have cucumber peel leaves. I used a knife to slice the cucumber peel from the cucumber and then used scissors to cut the leaves. The letters were cut from egg sheet leftover after making the Cupcake Kitty. Have I mentioned lately that I adore my letter cutters? The thought of trying to cut them out by hand sends shivers down my spine.
Making scrambled tofu onigiri is very easy, however since the tofu is colored using tumeric the yellow gets all over the rice when mixing them together. The end result is not as striking compared to using scrambled egg.

I love your sweet purple sakura gracing the onigiri. My garden is bursting with early spring blooms and I hope you don't have to wait much longer!
