^_^ While out today my mom and I found this super random, but pretty cool japanese dollar store type thing, and while there i got these nifty bento boxes for $1.50 each ^_^ and since I'm starting work up again tomorrow i made myself a nifty little lunch... and ooh look pictures included ^_^ (be jealous Crystal Moon, be jealous...)

Anywho for $6 i got two bentos, matching chopsticks and these nifty little felt strap things to keep the bentos from opening inside my bag ^_^ which, if i remember correctly, that's cheaper than Crystal Moon got her one bento for XD muahahahah i win....

So tomorrow's lunch consists of fresh picked green beans from my garden with a little bit of salt on top, some tomato (from my garden) with fresh mozzarella and basil (from the garden), and then some little omusubi as a random yet tasty treat.

Now I get to figure out what I want to make all the other days *sigh* there's this nifty little community on livejournal though that's all about bentos and such so maybe I'll go look over there.. it's http://community.livejournal.com/eat_my_bento/ if anyone's interested ^_^

Sadly i just realized this probably should have gone in the food subforum.... i fail

Wow that is kind of a great deal. I am almost jealous. That does sound kind of cheap for those bento. The food also looked really good, I am jealous in that way.

There are few bento that hold enough food to satisfy my hunger!!!!!!!!!!!!!
However talking about all of this causes me to desire Onigiri

There's also apparently a bunch at Pearl River Mart in Chinatown, I'd be interested in going and looking when I get back to NY if you guys want to take a trip there?

And go make some if you want some *nod*

Its pretty large! BUT NOT A BENTO! mwa its design has nothing to do with japan! those foolish mortals and their silly games. But yes it could hold enough.

Also i would, but it is getting late and i already had dinner.\

Also onigiri happen like once every three days anyways.

Well it's kind of similar to the stacking bentos that they have for large family picnic things in Japan.... ish...

SEE now that is for heros! Also i found a cheaper store for them through the ads on LE that scanned this thread and offered us bento boxes. lol.

Man I wish I seen that add and got a bento box for cheap. Then again I do not think I would really use a bento box too much. I stay in too much. Still yours seem pretty cool and would be fun to have.
