Here I go a'Bento-ing...

Mike finds it very sad that I've spent so much time on the bento thing. But it's a fun way to make my "food lowering intake plan" (diet is a hatefull four letter curse word that I refuse to use in conjunction to myself) all the more interesting. Who wouldn't want to eat something that looks as beautiful as it tastes? I think that's why they do things like that at the fancy restauraunts (aside from trying to hide exactly how little you actually get in a meal). I'm planning healthier meals now while still eating enough to fill me up. Last week alone I lost a half a pound and another inch off my waist. I know part of that is me gardening. But the food can't hurt. And I still get to eat my Samoas! Greatest cookie known to mankind and the reason I joined the Girl Scouts in the first place.

I think I shall definitely have to have a shamrock themed bento tomorrow. I have much to work towards in the creativity department when compared to others who're in the same bento groups as I am on Flickr. I'm a bit better than average but I wish to be amongst the best.

On the aside, this is a great way to try new foods, Asian or otherwise, that I normally wouldn't mess with. The smaller portions make trial a bit less daunting.
