Welcome!

I created this blog with the desire to make lunch simple, fun and healthy. I had turned to bento to make this possible.
I live with my husband and our adorable pets and we live a fairly busy life so, being able to have a fast fun lunch makes it easier to save money and eat healthy. Bento is for everyone, not just children, and I strive to inspire people to make lunch an exciting aspect of their day, instead of the same old monotonous task and boring foods which inevitably lead to spending too much money on cafeteria food or fast food, or skipping meals all together.
This blog really has grown to be so much more than I had originally invisioned! It really incorporates my love for local and fresh food and making meals fun and tasty, not just lunch! There is great potential for all meals and bento still really inspires me, but I also really enjoy being inspired by the local farmer's market, and different books and I think the blog has really taken off to so much more than just a bento blog. I hope you feel inspired and enjoy it as much as I do!

Dinner by Hubby


     For our date night, my husband made me dinner. Now, this is really a pretty rare thing and if he does make me dinner, its usually Kraft Dinner, hot dogs, Hamburger Helper, and you get the picture! So I was very impressed! He picked up these ENORMOUS tuna steaks and even made up his own marinade for them (I believe it was some oil, some salt and pepper and some ponzu) and the barbecued them. He also cooked up these noodles he found at our local asian grocery (which I absolutely love to frequent), and he even made them in a way different than the package explained. So way to be creative! I was very impressed and it tasted great. :) Keep up the good work, hubby!



That's all for now, until next time, Happy Munching!
