Bento #200

I can't believe that I've now photographed and documented 200 of Maisie's bentos. I know that I've missed many along the way but getting 200 up here, to me, is very cool.

Ham & cheese flowers with quail egg centers and gim faces on a bed of gim. Cashews, jelly, grapes & dry roasted edamame.

After all the extra sugar in yesterday's bento I was extra careful in what I packed today. Maisie really enjoyed this bento and ate everything but a few kernels of edamame and a couple of the cashews as she said she was full up.

Shelly said...: Congratulations on your 200th bento! I love reading this blog, though I don't leave comments as often as I should.

I just wanted you to know that you have given me some great ideas for things I can pack in my little guy's lunch. I love making bentos for him and for myself. Keep up the good work!

Why bento?

Maisie used to be an extremely picky eater and three to five days a week I had to pack a lunch for her to take to camp or school. Because she was so picky, I starting packing bentos in an attempt to make her lunches more interesting, appetizing and hopefully more appealing while providing food that was healthy for her along with being something she wanted to and would eat. She's now a much better and far less picky eater but she loves her bentos and they make her feel special and loved so I continue to make them for her.
