Description The bentos I packed for Kidlet's second grade field trip. I got to tag along this time! We got some envious looks from the bologna sandwich crowd. XD

We have matching bento boxes. Mine is black, the kid's is beige. Spam musubi bites, dumplings, and a separate box of strawberries to share. Kid loves those cheese bunny cutouts...


School is out for the year, so this is going to be the last bento for a while.

It is fun making those bentos, because my mom used to make them for me when I was small! It is nice to carry on the tradition.

where do you find those bento boxes?

animama In reply to Bethebelle13 [2011-11-03 05:52:10 +0000 UTC]

I got these at a now closed online store, but they are all over the internet nowadays. If you live in a big city, you can find them at various Asian markets too.

XD I am a Korean mama. It is something we do. Just because I live in the middle of the woods in the US is not enough reason not to do stuff like this.

Why do I feel so jealous all of a sudden.

I must say it's my first time to see a really beautifully arranged bento.

animama In reply to Kazuki99 [2009-12-06 05:48:49 +0000 UTC]

XD You should check out the online bento communities. My efforts are rather plain!


I need to make another picnic bento this week, for the class field trip. Should be fun...Kidlet wants tuna onigiri.

Kazuki99 In reply to animama [2009-12-06 06:28:02 +0000 UTC]

xD your bentos are really pretty even though they're plain compared to the people who are used to making it.
But still it is pretty and I'm sure you'll get better at it! ^^
I rarely or not even get to see a real organized bento especially one this close

Where i am.... bentos look more like a tray of separated food than an organized one >.<

animama In reply to Kazuki99 [2009-12-08 17:22:09 +0000 UTC]

The bentos I make get inhaled in 2 seconds by a small child with unwashed hands...so there really is not much point in making them super elaborate. XD

I enjoy looking at the really fancy bentos online, but do not have time or energy to make them myself. I am making another picnic one this week, so I will post pics!

Kidlet loves the bunny cheese. That cutter gets a lot of use.

I posted some new bento pics on my LJ, now that school has started up again.[link]

I have bear, dinosaur and various sea life cutters too, but Kidlet only wants the bunny. The cheese bunny shows up in almost every bento.

Kidlet is the only Asian kid in class. Other kids seem to think that is pretty cool, especially when he gets lunches like this instead of a squished sandwich in a plastic baggie.

Wow! Your kidlet is lucky. When I was a child all I ever got in my lunch box was a sandwich, grapes and milk.

BTW: The other kids were making all that noise because they wanted lunches like those.

I work, but I work at home and tend to get up early, so I have time to do this sort of thing!
