Mickey Mouse Microwave Waffle Maker http://hanamachi-lights.org/2011/04/18/photos-new-gadget-mickey-mouse-microwave-waffle-maker/ http://hanamachi-lights.org/2011/04/18/photos-new-gadget-mickey-mouse-microwave-waffle-maker/#comments Tue, 19 Apr 2011 02:41:37 +0000 Faith http://hanamachi-lights.org/?p=451 Or filled pie/cake maker. To be honest, I don’t entirely know what this is but I’m a sucker for this kind of thing, and I’ve been eying it on eBay for two or three months – finally had the money so we just bought it, it’s too cute! It just arrived from Hong Kong today. It was labeled with the word Bento so it showed up in our searches, and now seeing how big it is I bet it would be perfect for a dessert tier of a standard sized bento.

This is a microwave contraption comes apart and the two Mickey Mouse head compartments are filled with your batter or cake mix, then little back end plates fit over the mix and it goes into the microwave. When it’s done you take it out and remove the back plates, which have made impressions in the cake for you to spoon filling into. Then you place one side of the cake on top of the other and use the enclosed plastic sealer to seal the the blasted thing – now you should have a finished, stuffed waffle!

I plan on testing it out with some honey wheat waffle batter and cream cheese filling! I have no idea how long you’re supposed to cook these things but I’ll tinker around and let you know what I find out. Squee!

Dag nabbit!

Well, this annoys me because I’d recently gotten some neat stuff from the Dollar General and took lovely pics of it, which I now can’t get off my damn phone. I’m gonna be going back to the even crappier phone, so please bare with me!

I did get a new bento wrap, gingham with Hello Kitty on it, and when I have a minute I’ll take a few pictures to share with you. :)

Giant bneto suspense! I’ve bought a new bento gadget that’s supposed to cut your lunch meat/cold cuts into bunny and bear shapes and I can’t wait for it to get here. Ooh, hurry up eBay, I can’t wait! Lol.

I’ve got my egg cooker thingie! It arrived today in the mail, and it’s bigger than I thought it would be, but I’m just in LOVE with it. It’s a little early birthday present to me. I love presents to myself, I always know just what I want, lol.

It’s got four mold/cooker shapes and it looks like it’ll be very easy to use, so hopefully I won’t screw it up ( lol ), on top of that the seller even wrote and printed out some English language instructions for me, wasn’t that awesome of them? I’m going to marry it. MARRY IT! I love it so much, I’m going to have eggs today even though I don’t particularly crave them, and you’re all invited to the wedding. As soon as I have some pics of the actual eggs, I’ll post all the pics I’ve taken so far with them – Giddy!
