Our dear friend Michelle has given us Bento boxes (Japanese lunch boxes) and accessories on a couple of occasions. Her generosity has meant that Dellylu and I have the cutest lunch boxes ever. This one has a top layer where the chopsticks and spoon fit.
The next layer has little chipies, pistachios, M&M's and a cookie. Note the cute dividers.
The bottom layer holds 2 tiny sandwiches cut from Turkish bread, one from Viennese loaf, or regular square bread with the crusts cut off and chopped in smaller pieces.
It has a lid and a stretchy band with a flower to hold it together.
It all fits in this bag with a frozen juice popper, frozen yogurt and an apple. We joke that this is a way for adults to stay slim. Only eat what will fit in a bento and watch the weight fall off. Or practice making electronics by fitting the food into the little compartments. Dellylu and I think it's worth the effort. Everyone needs a little kawaii (cute) in their day! Thanks so much Michelle!
We ate bento lunches in hawaii. I'd like to have some bento boxes too--- so cute! Love the bag--- Did you make it? You should write a weightloss book--- Say No to Binge, Say Yes to Bento--- Be Bento Buff--- Bento your way to Health--- Could be the newest diet craze--- make you millions!!
