I meant what I said, you minimize the risk of contamination if you defrost in the fridge. :D I guess the phrasing was vague. Defrosting at room temperature can cause the microorganisms.

An added bonus is that you minimize the risk of getting your chicken contaminated by microorganisms because you defrosted in the fridge." Are you sure that you don't mean "defrosted at room temperature"? :P “Moving the chicken fillets from the freezer to the fridge the night before ensures that you have nice, well-defrosted chicken in the morning.

Have faith, most of the time naka-autopilot ako sa morning bento prep e. :P @Mrs. G Yay! I'm glad it worked out for you. I think it's cool that we're enjoying the same food! :D @Ms.____2 Be! I hope you manage to, it's surprisingly easy. @Kristen and Suzanne COUNT ME IN! I'm a member of the digging for bento boxes in the morning club. I have big organizer boxes but honestly, my washed and dried boxes seldom make their way back into that big organizer. *facepalm* We should form a support group---I'm sure being organized will save us lots of time. @Jaguarrior Not to mention freezing leftovers and eating them a couple of days later instead of the next day is more pleasant. It almost feels like you're eating something new! @Tony Lou Hehe, understandable. If you have to stop to think about what to do next (Like me when I'm trying out something new) it really will take longer. But I guess it's a case of practice makes perfect, or in this case, practice makes it faster? @belle Hi belle! Glad you like them. I mostly source my bento boxes locally (I'm Manila-based) from Japanese 100 yen stores and the like. Sometimes even department stores have them. What I've discovered is that it really helps if you keep your eyes peeled---you never realize that certain stores stock them until you're actively searching. @Krissy Hehe, hugas na yung box. :P I can relate about being a slowpoke in the mornings. I'm barely human until I've had my coffee---at WORK! But I guess it's just a conscious effort to move faster? I'm motivated by the fact that I don't have money left to buy lunch nor money for transport so I need to move fast to make sure I have my lunch AND I don't miss my ride :P @toni

I cannot decide which bento container to use. I also have a lot of problems when I try to pack soups and/or dips... *sigh* must have own house soon! Yes, I have this problem too.
