Ok, my close friends know I now have a new obsession, bento boxes. For those who don’t know, a bento box is kinda like a Japanese lunch box. Here is a pic:

As you can imagine I will be posting more about my adventures in bento. So far all I have are 2 egg molds. It is a bit difficult for me to find affordable things here a most sellers are in Japan so the shipping is either very high or it takes sometimes up to 2 - 3 months to get something in. I love my egg molds, one is a teddy bear and one is a bunny. I used them for the first time today. I was not exactly successful, the eggs were too small and I tore one up a bit peeling it, but I can see that with just another try or 2 I’ll have it perfect.

For any other bento enthusiasts out there I came across something today. Collections Etc has silicone muffin cups that are heart shape on sale for $11.99. They ship for fairly cheap and are fast. Here is a pic:

These are great for use in your bento to keep moist or fragrant things seperated from your other food.

Anyway, this is all for now. I will be posting more later.
