Are you ready for Christmas? We're 75% there. I'm pleased to report that our three kittens (five months old) have been ignoring the Christmas tree completely. We were convinced that it was going to be climbed/knocked over/otherwise devastated within minutes of putting it up. But with that worry out of the way I can concentrate on Finals (ugh) and Holiday bentos, yay!
In the bento: Peanut butter and jelly sandwich balls, frozen raspberries, a checkered apple, carrot stars, steamed edamame, half of a steamed Japanese sweet potato, cucumber holly leaves and pomegranate seeds.
The sammies were created using Lia Chen's technique which she posted a tutorial about and for which I am very thankful! Each present has three eggsheet strips: two wrapped around and one for the bows. I pinned them onto the sammies with small pieces of uncooked somen noodle, one piece in the back for the wraps and one for the bows in the front. The cucumber holly leaves were cut with my exacto knife.
I hope that you guys are having a great December! Good luck to everyone struggling with Finals like me :D
