Bento #20

Did my usual 3km walk averaging 13mins each km this morning... so no improvement at the moment. And had a peek at the numbers on the scale this morning before the walk.... Hey! despite my bingeing on sunday and the choc&cheese and Bento Pet's chocolate chip cookies (there are six pieces left by the way!) there is evident of another pound lost!!! Fantastic!

Breakfast was small bowl of oats with half a banana sliced into it, a slice of papaya and an orange.

Today's bento is yesterday's dry meat curry with potatoe, steamed brocolli and beneath the brocolli is left over fried turnip with minced meat in dark soya sauce. One shaped rice ball garnished with cili flakes, yesterday's two was abit too much. And oh the sprig of young celery leaves used as garnish for the curry is in honour of my supporters ~ sisters, Wendy and Sharon and mentor ~ Bento Pet! LOL! Hope you like it!

BTW, as I was having my lunch, a young supplier walked in and saw me and my bento lunch. He informs that in cantonese - its called 'loving heart rice box!' ~ ain't that sweet?
