My First Complete Bento Box

This weekend just past has been a rather packed weekend for me and I do enjoy them very much...it is like I am truly living life to the fullest, just like how it should be. I have so many things that I want to post but first things first, I must really thank Christene of allthingspurple for her lovely gift. After getting to know her through Bento Pet's blog, I got to meet her in person, even though it is only for a short while. My place was really a mess, so was too pai seh (embarassed) to invite her in. Next time Christene, when I have time to clean it up and make it more presentable.

She gave me my first real bento set. How wonderful and when she passed it to me, all she said was "I know that this will be very useful to you as you have started to bento now". I opened the gift and saw that it was a Thermos branded set... wow, complete with a bento strap (the one that I picked up from the 100Yen shop has no strap, so I have to use rubber bands to hold the lids down) and the best part was the thermos bag. Goody, now I can have warm food to eat.


It is indeed a most wonderful gift as I have now that I have started my bento journey. And you know what Christene, you have chosen one of my favorite colors too... blue :D.. Thanks again so much dearie.. hugs!!

The pleasure is all mine, dearie. I noticed that you were using plastic white containers that looks like they were seperate containers so I knew you would find this useful.

You were so much more prettier in person than in your picture, maybe time to change the avatar? ha ha.
