Play With Your Food!

So I just discovered the world of bento box lunches. I love it! The way Japanese moms pack their kiddos' lunches are adorable and it makes eating fun (a big help for those picky eaters!).  

I know, I know. I'm not a little kid but I'm a kid at heart ok? So I couldn't help myself from ordering a bunch of cute bento box supplies online. I may have even gone a little overboard. I tend to do that when I get excited about something new.

So here's my first attempt at packing a cute bento box for work today. Most of my items haven't arrived in the mail yet but I did receive my egg molds and of course, my panda bento box. 

By the way, my bento box is so cute but it's so tiny! I guess it's really meant for a 5 year old kid, huh?

I also picked up this awesome Yum-Yum Bento Box book and can't wait to read through it for all the ways to make cutesy food! The authors have a fun bento box blog too.

Check out Sherimiya's Happy Little Bento blog too! She has such great and easy ideas and I can't wait to try out more fun things!

Who ever said that you weren't suppose to play with your food?!
