I try to make bento for my hubby for lunch. He usually packs his own home lunch, but sometimes he gets sick of having sandwiches every day so I try whenever I have time to put together a bento for him. Sometimes it’s just packing up leftovers, but he always appreciates it.
Today’s bento: teri beef, bacon-wrapped shimeji mushrooms, broccoli and tomato, umeboshi and black sesame on rice.

What a thoughtful wife you are, Ai! Everything looks so delicious. The shimeji mushrooms wrapped with bacon REALLY makes my mouth water. I love any kind of mushroom….haven’t really tasted the shimeji mushroom though I’m sure it’s delicious. Also, I’m one of those people who believe that “everything tastes better with bacon.”
“Everything tastes better with bacon”. How true the words. One more thing that everything tastes better with: butter.
