Wiener cutting

[bento with fried rice, crab hotdogs, broccoli, fruit]

This is a simple one - Mom's fried rice (lima beans...eep!), steamed broccoli, and mini-franks that are supposed to look like crabs. Kiwi and apples for dessert.



I got this "wiener cutter" (ha ha) that supposedly transforms an ordinary mini-hotdog into a crab. The first time, I pressed the hotdog in completely, but then I lost some claws in the press. The second time, I pressed only part of the way. No missing limbs, but you don't really get the crab effect. I'm also not sure if I have the right size hotdogs. The mini ones seem to small, and the regular are definitely too big. Hmmm...
