I seldom do my cooking during the weekend
:P....In order to have enough time to snap photos for pictorials on the bento
making, I get myself to make a bento on last Saturday.
Monkey is fried
tofu （豆干）, cheese and nori for its face details. Sweet peas for the
ladder, nori sheet and inari / aburage for the brick wall.
Food
