Chicken of the Seafood It's Friday, which is the Summer rerun season of the bento week. (Did that make any sense at all?)

Anyway, here we have a kaleidoscope of leftovers, blue and otherwise! octopus & vegetable yakiudon (made with homemade blue noodles), a little grilled chicken on steamed broccoli, and baked purple sweet potato with baby carrots for color contrast and munchiness. Then there's something new: blueberry mochi. It's actually baked coconut mochi with food coloring and blueberries. It turned out really well! Next time I make it, I might try steaming some to see if it comes out more like the soft, no-crust stuff you get in stores.

Wanna talk about it?
