Bento Banter - Breakfast Bento # 4


















I have been stuffing myself with some artery clogging deliciousness lately while I was in KL  and now it is time to tone down a bit and eat something light and easy :)  Something light like sandwiches would be great and having bought myself a sandwich sealer , my new toy, I would of course want to play with it more often :p Seriously , this sandwich sealer is a great thing to have when making sandwiches. It helps keep the fillings from dropping off. Great gadget to have for sandwiches lover :)

Chill Out With Piggy Jo @ Pasta Zanmai, Mid Valley, KL


















I was away the last few days, visiting  Piggy Jo ,and besides chilling out with her, I was there to help her shift from her present pigsty to another new sty nearer to her campus.  A family home is better than staying with the rest of the students - reason was during the summer break , she was  pretty much on her own and the place is so quiet and not SAFE at all for her.  Basically the former place housed mostly  international students and summer break is 4 mths - imagine how worried I was during summer time.  I am so glad that she managed to find a nice home , staying with family is so much better. She has a room with bathroom attached and with air con provided  for RM550 a month.  Thus, I was away for a few days...to help her move her stuff to the new home :)  

And besides that, we had a wonderful time chilling out at Mid-Valley... what do you expect of these Piggies?shop shop shop ,slurp slurp slurp and oink oink oink away........had wanted to go to the Curve, but she said she does not know the way home...funny thing is she knows the way there but fogot how to take the road back :(  she said she will have to get a GPS soon....maybe I should give one to her this coming Xmas !  :p   We ate at Pasta Zanmai and the meal was GREAT...simply delicious !!!  Come take a look at what the Piggies ordered for lunch at Pasta Zanmai.   The two Piggies had their stomach filled to the brim.................... LOL!

Bento Banter - Bento # 3


















This is something light and easy for me. A lunch meal that is not too filling and yet satisfying.  I like bento meal because I can just use whatever is left in the fridge and turn them into something delicious, fast and no fuss and take to office.  Nothing beats homecooked food.  Whipping out something nice is not hard for me for I have almost everything in the fridge except fresh fruits :p I have two refrigerators at home. One old fridge which I inherited from my dear beloved mom, for my cooking ingredients and my dog food :p and the other one is for the family 's ration LOL!

Pickled Salmon In Homemade Wholemeal Bun


I made a hearty breakfast using Dorie's Salmon In A Jar. I used up the last batch of my 2nd jar :) but will be making another jar soon :p  It is so convenient to have a bottle in the fridge. It is easy to make pickled salmon. You can refer  here for the recipe if you are interested to make some for yourself.  You can add them to your pasta, pizza and rice or sandwiches/bun .  I am excited to share with you this simple pickled salmon filling for your buns. This is good for busy working momsies and single person :)  Healthy and less washing to do ! :p
