I prepare o-bento with left overs: soba, veggies, eggs, or I make it fresh from the scretch: onigiri, meat paddies and so on. I don't think that bento is expensive, but yes, preparing is time consuming (eating out in a canteen is much more expensive). I learned quite a lot from this blog: http://justbento.com/<br />In germany it's (or maybe was - times are changing) a tradition to prepare Pausenbrot (bread for breaks) for the kids. Pausenbrot is some kind of sandwich (but better not made of soft white bread - this is unhealthy) accompanied by fruits, veggie sticks and so on. I tried very hard to feed some healthy stuff to my child and therefore made the sandwich toppings more interesting. I even carved little round red radishes into mice :-) Guess he dumped the pausenbrot now and than and spent his money on candy bars instead.<br />A transformer like bento box would had helped much to risen his interest in pausenbrot. I use lock&lock boxes only - no rabbit patterns, no patterns at all.<br />(hopefully your mushroom season is over soon; we did spend the 31 Oct. at the sunny seaside, making a long stroll at the beaches)<br />KikiKikinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101980281470446262.post-31073266353598014072010-11-02T08:07:29.987+09:002010-11-02T08:07:29.987+09:00Rose: Thanks for your compliment.

As you may know, when you go to a 100-yen shop, you can get all those cute little bento items that will make your bento look good, but I don't want to use such things.Hiroyukihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075672590298671343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101980281470446262.post-9479590795080523792010-11-02T06:42:59.350+09:002010-11-02T06:42:59.350+09:00It is still a very nice bento.
