Donnie Darko Bento
Donnie Darko Bento
You have only 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes and 12 seconds to eat this bento!
I think this week’s theme could be aliens / sci-fi / paranormal. We had a piece of salmon steak left over from our evening meal so I made it into this Donnie Darko “Frank the bunny”. It kind of fits in with Spring theme too, because it’s a bunny LOL. Ok so it’s not the kawaii cute that we know and love, but I remember when that film came out, everyone was talking about what an awesome and cool film it was, and some people were even getting the tattoo of 28:06:42:12 on their inner fore-arm! Crazy!
It’s- just plain white rice, a salmon steak (coated in curry powder, white flour and salt and fried up) with nori facial features and brocolli and omelette spirals.
From Wikipedia “Donnie Darko is a 2001 American science fiction film written and directed by Richard Kelly.” Full Wikipedia Donnie Darko article here.
The image I used to make the bento is from this simplified tattoo version
EDIT: This has been entered into Hapa bento’s B.O.M.B for April

Featured Product: Niko Niko Nori Face Punch (recently re-stocked!)
This amazing new nori punch cuts standard sheet seaweed into unbearably cute faces that you can use to make incredible bento and onigiri art, making you the cutest bento maker in town! Koala bear faces, panda, or generic happy faces can be cut from the 3 seaweed cutters and you can even mix and match to make new expressions.
I am not a sci-fi fan neither is my boy. My boy is afraid of monsters so I try not to made anything with monsters in his bento…. except those folks from Monster Inc!
Another great aliens bento from you. Did you freehand for cutting the nori numbers?
Hi Lia, thanks!
Yes I cut them free hand while I was waiting for the rice to cool down! I know they are a bit scrappy, but I don’t mind 
(Though if i had a numbers nori punch, that would have come in handy LOL ) 
OOOO, very good with the creepy rabbit!! That whole plot gave me the shivers.
Hmm… so funny… I remembered I commented on this post yesterday but my comment did not appear???
weird – this one or the Alien hatchling one? it would be awful if comments were going missing. I appreciate every single one, and am so grateful for people’s feedback
Hiya Angeleyes! I found the missing comment! It was in my spam folder! I have got it out and approved it! Sorry about that – It’s weird that the first message went in spam automatically and your other one came through ok… Will have to keep my eye on it.

hahahaa…. yeah… I saw that it appeared!
The Askimet can be a little forgetful sometimes… it happened all the time in another blog of mine always sending one of my friend’s comments into the spam box no matter how many times I approved her comments. And the weird part is, the real spammers got through! >.<
I will be sure to keep checking the Spam Box then, just in case!
