Recently my son likes to play with sesame street puzzle. (he just play with it, but he never complete puzzle). It seems like he likes elmo character, so I cooked elmo rice ball today.

Since elmo is very simple character, this is easiest kyaraben (character bento - style of elaborately arranged lunch box which features food decorated to look like people or animal, etc)
