Packed Lunch

I'm in love with the Japanese culture.
And one of my favourite parts to coo over are bento boxes!
A bento is essentially a packed lunch in a little box, sometimes with compartments to seperate your different foods (You could jusst use an ordinary tupperware container, but that's not half as cute)
The styles of bento are so varied!
There are cute ones...

And there are really simple ones

But what I love most about bento is the boxes, so cute and compact and ready to be filled with deliciosness.



They don't even have to have a design on for me to think they're cute, I love the little neutral coloured one too! As soon as I get round to ordering my box I'll be starting my own bento experiments (and hopefully filling them with nutritiousness and not fatty foods!)
I also really want this cute little bottle so I can put water in it and not buy bottled water anymore! Such a wasteful expense when you think about it, and I never get round to recycling those plastic bottles... So wasteful. This bottle would solve that problem AND make me smile every time I drink out of it!

Good Enough To Eat

I've had a hankering to buy myself a japanese bento lunchbox for quite a while now, figuring it might actually make healthy eating fun, and give me a reason to want to take lunch with me rather than eating out all the time when I go back to university in September.
While searching I came across the website: http://www.from-japan-with-love.com/
and was pleasantly surprised by the range of cute lunchboxes they carry, I'm in the middle of compiling a shortlist right now so I don't bombard you with too many!
But what I hadn't realised was that they also carry some really cute rings, they're $12.50 each and if the shipping isn't too steep I might have to buy some of them!

I love jewelery that looks like food, and the chocolate cake with the floating sauce is my personal favourite :)...
This website might be doing some wallet some serious damage come payday...
