Adventures in Bento

Bento - side view

I used some Christmas money (thanks, Mom and Dad!) to buy myself a Bento-style lunchbox.

This is supposed to make me more excited to eat leftovers for lunch.


Hats off


Three layers of eating

It's working!


Jet Blue cookies

The lunchbox is a little bigger than I need, so there's plenty of room for snacks.


Sog-proof

Tortilla soup and tortilla chips never have to touch until they're ready.

Beyond work, I'm thinking the beach and the park would also be good destinations for me and my portable foodstuffs. There's a smaller bento box available, too, if you're looking for a kid- or snack-sized version.


p.s. I just learned (the research way, not the hard way) - don't microwave these.
