Do you pack a bento lunch to make your healthy lunch a little more fun and enjoyable? I haven't done them much and it's been a while, but I packed one for today to celebration the end of my first week. If you pack one too I'd love to see it!

    I love your Bento. Yesterday I bought a load of stuff from the internet to make beautiful bentos. My only problem is that I have already eaten it by 11am...

    I recently become interested in making bento lunches. I would love to see other people's pictures and ideas. :)

    I love bento, it makes everything taste so much better! I sent my teenager off to his first day of sixth-form with teddy bear sandwiches and bunny shaped eggs today, haha.

    Maybe someone will know a good website, the one I used went out of business years ago. I actually found this one at a dollar store, and I've had good luck on ebay.

    Awesome Leila!! Sounds very flavorful. Those lock&lock boxes are another good idea for folks looking for local bento solutions.
