Full description with sandwich freezing tutorial and a list of freezer-friendly/unfriendly fillings in my blog entry. It took about 5 minutes to pack up this toddler lunch this morning.

Doll quilt completed for DQS4. A very fun quilt to make; I'll be making more of these with other fabrics from my stash! Measures about 17.5" square after washing.

Ladybug bento box is his request.My boy likes insects so much, especially loves ladybug.Today he went to field trip to the zoo. Have a nice day, my boy!!

This is the "roll out of bed and make something fast" bento.

Very happy with how this project turned out. The Denyse Schmidt fabrics are really beautiful to look at and to touch. Even my quilting turned out well - the best I've ever done.

Can you find 3rd pig in this bento box??

Day 14- .. day one of lunch.. And I went Bento Box shopping

So Sorry:

I'm sorry, two words

I always think after you're gone

When I realize I was acting all wrong

So selfish, two words that could describe

Old actions of mine when patience is in short supply

We don't need to say goodbye

We don't need to fight and cry

Oh we, we could hold each other tight

Tonight

We're so helpless

We're slaves to our own forces

We're afraid of our emotions

No one, knows where the shore is

We're divided by the ocean

And the only thing I know is

The answer it isn't for us

No the answer isn't for us

I'm sorry, two words

I always think after, oh after you're gone

When I realize I was acting all wrong

We don't need to say goodbye

We don't need to fight and cry

No we, we could, we could hold each other tight

Tonight...

Tonight...

Tonight...

Tonight...

I've been collecting Etsuko Furuya prints for quite some time now and finally decided to combine them all in these fun and colorful quarter log cabin blocks. I originally was going to make a largish lap quilt, but now I'm considering using it as wall art... Blogged here.

This was a super-fast bento (took less than 10 minutes to pack). I nuked frozen homemade meatballs, steamed the broccoli and kabocha squash in a microwave mini steamer, and plopped in a foil cup of leftover spaghetti I portioned out for freezing. Full details on freezing spaghetti here.

This meal took about 5 minutes to throw together, using the last of the older items from my freezer bento stash. It's important to use up frozen items before they lose flavor and vitamins.
