Top tier: creamed corn croquettes alternating with veggie; deep fried green beans (my brother's leftovers, I think he went to Friday's or Applebee's)
Bottom tier: bok choi, bean sprouts, edamame, and gyoza.
Not shown: the sauces for the gyoza and croquettes. In the little box? Oshibori.
During the same trip that I'd picked up the croquettes, I happened to notice a package of two cute little boxes with similar designs (the other one is yellow and has a cat on it, I think). I wasn't sure what I'd use it for, tartar sauce or I don't know what, but when my mom handed me a package yesterday of really, really thin baby washcloths (she bought 6 for $1 at a nearby $1 store), I knew exactly what to put in the case: oshibori.
Since reading about oshibori on Lunch in a Box here, I've been considering how great it would be to use those, since I really hate sticky fingers and a lot of times, regular paper napkins just don't cut it. So today will be my first time using one, I'm really excited!
HAPPY BENTO'ing on this soggy Tuesday!
PS I know my lunch, though stuffed with veggies, isn't the healthiest... too much fried stuff. Ah... well....
Let us know how the makeshift oshibori worked out for you! I love them -- and nice use of the little side dish container, Yvo!
