I still can't get my photos to upload.... might need to look at a different site to load them to. But I have been using my bento boxes every week since I got them. I only work 2 days a week (at home with the kids the other 5) so the husband uses them the rest of the time! Todays was quickly thrown together last night... a…

I'm back but with no solid goal for the month other then to run! 9 weeks for being sick and my fitness has suffered. I've only managed 3 short runs since mid July :( but I finally feel better! 7/9 - 4km

Well I am finally well enough to go for a run!! 6 weeks since I've been able to. Slow 4km, have no solid goal for this month..... just to get back out there and run :)

I packed my first bento yesterday for work today! (have packed for my husband couple times this week) No photo as have an issue with my photobucket acc. Bottom layer of my super cute bear box was rice with spring onions, one side of the top layer was raw carrot, cucumber, cauliflower and broccoli, other side was roasted…

[] I'm in New Zealand and they are coming from China...... via slow canoe ;) Hopefully I won't have to wait that long!!

I have to wait 3-4 weeks for my boxes to arrive :( But I will still be here.....watching.... :wink: Love love love all the gorgeous boxes!!

Hello...... I'm ShortMrsN.......long time lurker, first time poster....... bento virgin....... Last night I bought my first bento box....2 in fact, 1 each for the husband and I. The one in the photo above (so cute!) I know they are on the small side but we both need to cut back on our portion sizes! I look forward to…

Add in a chest infection :( Had the exact same thing last year......I might end up taking the month off to make sure it is gone......I didn't realise it was a chest infection last year and ran a couple times and made myself worse!! Have a great running month everyone!!

Going to stick to my 50km goal, but first 2 weeks of July is school holidays so not sure how I'll go (husband is away a lot in July too, so no evening runs.....) :/

09/06 - 8.5km Finally got out for a run...... and my knee is starting to hurt :(

I love miso soup! My new favourite way to have it is with plenty of sliced spring onion, rice shaped in an onigiri mould (I bulk cook rice, mould it, then freeze) and fried shallots sprinkled on top!

In with a grin. :smiley: Going to set my goal at 50km this month.

I wasn't dressed properly and everything…

Salad of baby spinach, tomatoes, cucumber, feta, avocado, red or green onion, sunflower seeds, Miso soup with green onion, fried shallots, baby spinach and rice that has been squished in an Onigiri mould (pour soup over the top..... yum) Sushi Raw veges with a dipping sauce (today with homemade mayo and sweet chilli sauce…

This has not been a good month so far!! Sick kids last week and yesterday we had flooding!! Half the city was shut down, multiple streets closed (including the main one to our house!!) luckily I was able to go the back way to get the boys from school. The husband was trapped in his car for an hour on the motorway, didn't…

03/05 - 5.04km 13/05 - 6.12km

I'm absolutely reek after a run.......I don't even wear deodorant most mornings I run because it seems pointless to put it on only to sweat it off! If they smell nice then they have very liberally sprayed themselves before heading out the door!

This week has been a complete write-off :( I have had one or two of the kids home sick everyday this week so no chance to run (night time isn't an option now that daylight saving has ended) Will start fresh next Tuesday (can't see me running Sunday morning given how I feel now)

03/05 - 5.04km
