    I had hoped to buy a set and ship to daughter stationed in Alaska. Groupon won't ship there; I don't think Mom will mail them after I see them!! May need to order another set at that price!

    I like to take a slice of ham, spread it with cream cheese, lay a slice of roasted red pepper in it & roll up. Chill for a bit then slice sushi style. There are lots of ways to vary that. (olive tapenade, avocado, lettuce or turkey, Alloutte cheese, diced tomato...etc.

    my friend at work would always eat cottage cheese and black olives, i bet that could be cute!

    and i'm waiting for it to come in so that i can start bento-ing as a hobby, hopefully.

    I love this thread! Thank you everyone for all of the wonderful suggestions!
