bento!

[krickets]

I haven't made one of these in a while. Not that I was really any good at them anyway. Still, it's fun!

YUMMY! Send some here. I'm having popcorn for tea. The kids and Mr ND are having pasta and chicken (which I had for lunch).

Oh my gosh, it looks so yummy and so cute! What's a star egg?

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Popcorn just won't cut it, I will send you some real food ASAP.

Thanks Kayl!

It's a hard-boiled egg in the shape of a star. I have these molds so as soon as you peel the egg (before it cools) you pop it into the mold and into the fridge (or some cold water or both) for a while and then when you take it out it's in the shape of a star!

I actually have a car, a fish, a bunny, a bear, a star and a heart. I made a car for Rocio today. I should take a picture of that before I give it to her. ;)

That is SO incredibly cool!!!!! Seriously, the things people come up with... hee <3

PS, I'm really liking your new layout colours. They're very rich :)

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Yeah? It's not too much?

I totally stole the yellow from the Foreman's couch.

No no, I really like them! They remind me of autumn :)

I love bento, I have a great bento box I really need to use a whole lot more often.

Yummy! ♥

[bebitched.livejournal.com]

Yum! That looks delicious. What's in the triangle-shaped watermelon thingy?

I've been running on an empty tank lunch food-wise since last week (today was our last day to eat lunch at school woot!) so today I had some stale crackers with strawberry cream cheese and a few handfuls of trailmix :( Can you come fix my lunches from now on?

[crickets.livejournal.com]

You should! I haven't gotten into making real fancy stuff. Just regular lunch stuff. I haven't used mine in so long though. And I have a small collection of them too so that's really sad.

You should post pictures if you do any!

*beams*

;)

[crickets.livejournal.com]

It was!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, that doesn't sound very yummy. I can barely remember to pack my own lunch, but I will try! ;)

I don't understand what is going on in this picture. It's food, right? Some of it is mushy, and some is not mushy, but it is all inhabiting the same container. I am confused.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Well, to be fair, the mushy food is in the bottom section?

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

Then I do not understand the container. The sections are separated?

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Yeah here's a picture of the same box I have but in red. It's tiered. Bento boxes. Uh huh. *nods* ;)

Hope that clears it up.

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

It surely does! And now I want one.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hee! It's totally fun.

There are a couple of comms at LJ dedicated to this art.

Notably bentolunch and eat_my_bento.

But the really drool-worthy pics are at flickr (http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=bento&w=all)!

And there's a few blogs, one being lunchinabox.net (http://lunchinabox.net/)

Have fun! :)

o_O It's a sub-culture/art form/industry/internet sensation!!! I never knew.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hahah, it's kind of geeky when you put it that way. (Well... when you put it any way.)

[woolly-socks.livejournal.com]

GEEKS ROOL. :-)
