My obsession with creating the perfect Bento lunch. Friday, July 31, 2009. Bento of Leftover Chinese. You know it will please,. Like a fresh summer breeze;. It's a bento of smiling. Jan got: crispy fried wonton, garlic shrimp and scallops, white rice, wonton in spicy peanut sauce, grapes, wasabi peas in Hello Kitty container, cute mushroom cookies, and a Ferrero Rocher dark chocolate truffle. I only wish the rice was a little less sad.but that is a minor quibble. Long live Chinese takeout! I just love a ...

BentoBabe: November 2009
http://mrbentosbabe.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
My obsession with creating the perfect Bento lunch. Tuesday, November 24, 2009. Nausicaa of the Valley of the Winds". It doesn't usually take me 20 years to see a movie but with this one, it did. Nausicaa is a great role model for girls, except for the fact that she appears to have given up wearing underwear. She talks to trees and animals, she is utterly fearless, she collects botanical samples, she hates violence, she flies a glider with the skill of Luke Skywalker, and she saves the world. There's a s...

My obsession with creating the perfect Bento lunch. Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Since last spring I have been working out at the gym religiously (with one interruption for a hurt knee that came from stupidly jumping down from a pickup truck bed in a hurry). My workout has come to be enjoyable! Top bento is Jan's: hard-boiled egg, candies, and Greek salad; with turkey pastrami roll-up sandwich and carrots and wheat chips. To your good health! Saturday, September 19, 2009. That is my goal and so far I a...

My obsession with creating the perfect Bento lunch. Friday, October 30, 2009. Curry - It is So Good! Today my bento had pinto bean and tart apple curry, sticky rice with almonds, and cilantro and Savoy cabbage coleslaw with several fat delectable umeboshi on top. It was completely yum and so satisfying that even though I ate it at 11:30 am, I was still not hungry by 6 when I got home from work. Here's my own personally-invented recipe for the bean and apple curry above:. Pinto Bean and Tart Apple Curry.

Well I guess that is actually pretty crazy. But:. Today I was going out for a 2 hour ride so I packed him a bento snack box. I also packed myself a bento so that I could skip breakfast and have a bento brunch out on the trail:. Yummy organic pink grapefruit, fried basmati rice, and peanut butter pretzels. This was tricky as I ha...

My obsession with creating the perfect Bento lunch. Friday, February 27, 2009. Wootiwoot woot New Bentos! The Black Sheep fascinates me. A group of white sheep are near the top of the design, and one black sheep right and lower down. A caption reads,. It's a nice day! Where are you going. Is this the black sheep talking to the group or vice versa? All around the edge of the top a line of text runs: "How about we go shopping today? We'll buy delicious fruits. How about you?
