Bento post #91 – #95

I keep complaining that Yiu Yiu never eats the food I prepare for her at school, preferring instead to have the biscuits given by the kindy, and yet, week after week, I still wake up early to prepare food for her, much to hubby's amusement. So here's what she brought to school this week:

Monday – pan-fried chicken drummets with slices of jackfruit. She finished the jackfruit at school and only nibbled on one of the drummets.

Tuesday – a simple soya sauce noodles with french beans and carrot cut-outs, and the last piece of jackfruit. She told me that she finished the noodles, had the french beans with her lunch at babysitter's but didn't eat the carrots.

Wednesday – two pieces each of potato wedges and chicken nuggets, and some rose apples. In the blue strawberry container is some tomato ketchup. She loves ketchup so I was hoping that the ketchup would be the incentive for her to finish the wedges and nuggets. She did finish the wedges at school, but left the nuggets, complaining that they were hard. I don't quite understand, coz this fresh batch of nuggets were made with minced chicken meat, so they shouldn't turn out hard. Perhaps I had overcooked them?

Thursday – being a little lazy to prepare much, I just stuffed some chicken floss into a pita pocket, and threw in some rose apples. As expected, she dug out the chicken floss, and left the pita bread, complaining that it had turned hard.

Friday – instead of giving her just hard boiled eggs, I thought I'd make an omelette with french beans, carrot and cheesy sausage. She woke up while I was cooking and when she saw the omelette, she immediately said she didn't want them :-( I packed them off for her anyway, with some bear-shaped guava slices, in the hope that she'd at least take a bite or two. But when I checked with the babysitter, again, my efforts were in vain.
