K-Bento: S is for Sandwich Spirals & A Tutorial

Missy A has a Peanut Butter addiction. She can literally snack on it by just spooning it out straight from the jar. Since she can't do that in school, she eats PB sandwiches in so many ways that I could find. One of them is the sandwich spirals that has gone viral on the bento world.  This is the first time I'm sending sandwich spirals to school, but she's been eating it at home as I improve my skills on rolling them tightly and neatly in place.

I have finally created my blog button with the help of a tutorial from The Little Hen House.  Thank you, Mama Hen!!

There are 2 of them which you can choose from.  Grab and share and help my blog grow!  I will absolutely return the favor, just leave a comment to any of my posts. 
Little did I know that it only takes a while to create it as long as you have the right image in your files already. You can use almost anything.  Anything that best represents you or your blog.

Onigiri (Japanese Rice Balls) - Tutorials

As I was searching online for bento ideas, I have come across of Onigiri.  They are Japanese Rice Balls with Nori sheets.  My children loves Nori with rice.  They love sushi rolls.  But I'd like to create new items and shapes to their lunches to make it more interesting and appealing to their appetites.  I think Onigiri might be a good twist/alternative to the usual sushi rice they are bringing in school.
