I have recently (as in yesterday) discovered the wonderful world of Bento. For those who don’t know, Bento boxes are the packed lunches of Japan, stuffed with sushi, meats, veggies and all sorts of wonderful delights. Whilst mine aren’t quite as stylish (well, I’m CERTAINLY not getting up early to make them and I’m tired in the evenings), they do have the variety of a Bento box and are much healthier than the food I buy for lunch normally, which costs a fortune and consists of lots of salt and fat.
Today (for tomorrow), I have two hot cross buns, some green beans and sugar snap peas, two fromage frais, three squares of chocolate, a Babybel and some cubes of cheddar and some rice with ginger and garlic. It’s going to be yummy! I am really looking forward to making these lunches every day.
Aw, it’s all so cute and fun and healthy looking! I’m jealous. I might just have to investigate this Bento business…
