I normally have the menu ready the night before and if I can prepare the food ready, for example to marinate chicken, then I'd do it the night before and fry it in the morning.<BR/><BR/>I also prepare the staples and freeze, example the tomato base for spaghetti or pizza. There are the dipping sauces for the Japanese soba noodles which I bottle and freeze in plastic bottles. I also pre-roll my spring rolls and fry them in the morning. <BR/><BR/>I normally get everything ready in half an hour in the morning. If I don't plan and draw out my menu for the morning then it'd be chaotic and frenzied - which also happens! I've learnt my lesson and I try to discipline myself.<BR/><BR/>I'm still passionate about packing bento for my girls and I hope this fire lasts'!<BR/><BR/>Please visit again.

Today I ...pearly: I think we all are 'supermoms'. Today I read a quote that was hanging in my friend's toilet: "All the love that you share will one day come back to you". I don't know why she put it in the toilet but I'm glad she did because I totally agree with that. <BR/><BR/>When my brothers and I were young, my mum would always cook up a storm during weekends. Birthdays were something we all looked forward to because she'd lay out a great buffet table of foods. I still have very fond and vivid memories of my childhood growing up with the fantastic food my mum cooked for us. <BR/><BR/>We didn't realize until we grew up that the love she had for us was translated through the food she cooked because she came from a very traditional Penang family and did not display much physical emotions.<BR/><BR/>I guess now I am trying to do the same, only more. I hope my children will remember their 'bento' days when they have their own children.Bento Pethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16712867596618586380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3939411475431504418.post-7154810650517220032007-09-03T23:45:00.000+08:002007-09-03T23:45:00.000+08:00mommibee: I am looking forward to using the templ...mommibee: I am looking forward to using the templates but I've been given 'strict' instructions not to serve rice or noodles this week.
