It Begins

Friends, it will soon begin. On January 1st, 2011 I will start a year of documenting every bento box I pack for lunch. I may not eat a bento lunch every day, but any time I do I'll post a picture and what recipe(s) I used.

This blog will be a way to keep me accountable on this quest. Not only do I get to eat adorable lunches out of an adorable box; I eat a lot less. When I first started using this box I thought it wouldn't hold enough food. It seemed to hold too little. How wrong I was. Most of the time I can't even eat everything I pack. It's just too much! And so, this will be one small step towards eating healthier and eating less.

And of course, I should introduce the star of the show. My lovely bento box!


My husband bought this for me last Christmas at our local Asian super market. Uwajimaya. He also went crazy online and bought me a ton of cute little goodies to be used with it. But I'll save those for another time.

Later I'll show you more of the inside. But for now it's time to finish packing todays lunch and getting ready for work.

Can't wait to show you more!
