Thanks guys :3
To be honest, it IS really quite bland in the aesthetics area...even more difficult when he's a picky eater and there's a limitation to what I have to pack.
I'll try to take more pictures!

Left side: Piece of fancy eclair cushioned with some more shortbread cookies and some pieces of Italian bread
Right side: Meatballs & cheese ravioli with tomato sauce

From last night's dinner :3

Those are so cute! I'm not sure I'd be able to eat them.

They're like little delicious works of art. :marusmile:

GA! Sorry guys...I have this habit of not taking pics of bento after making them so I'm trying to stay with it ;;==

Anyways...

From left to right: 3 onigiri separated with pieces of bacon, dumpling sauce in piggie, 4 dumplings, baran separating 3 orange slices, 6 octopus-shaped weiners (sorry you can’t see the tentacles…) and a cream puff.

Not bad for not knowing what to make for dinner or to pack for the next day’s lunch, eh? Maybe tomorrow we’ll have teriyaki chicken? Who knows?

This is my first Japanese-finger-food looking bento. Most of my other attempts seemed to look like "packed lunches" and there is a subtle difference. Jeez this is time-consuming!

it does look yummy.
but isn't like 3 onigiri ALOT?

well. it is for me.
your husband doesn't look that picky to me. XD

@ yinnie: Oh! Thank you! I was really really pleased with how this one turned out. The onigiri are like...tiny (like 2.5 inches). And in accordance with bento ratio (half starch, quarter main dish & 2 eighths sides/veggies), it was about right.
The man won't eat cooked fish but he'll eat sushi ;;== Weirdo
