Lunch in a cute little green box
I found this cute little lunchybox at Target a few months ago (can't find it on their website, unfortunately here's a boring clear one at The Container Store).
Is she not one of the cutest things ever?! I brought my lunch in her today, since my little sandwich didn't really fit into Mr. Bento - who could really use a rest anyway.
Today's meal. First, two little sandwiches - spinach dip sandwiches on pumpernickel (yes, I made perhaps a little too much spinach dip this weekend. What of it? :). They go into the top part of the cute green box.
Kind of hard to tell in the picture, but the top sandwich is in the shape of a hippo and it's standing on a diamond. The pumpernickel was bought on Friday in the day-old bin, and it was starting to get a tad dry. So I cut it all into shapes with my vast array of cookie cutters and made pumpernickel toasts in the oven. Good for sandwiches and dipping.
The entire meal, the rest of which goes in the lower section of the cute little green box:
From left: hippo & diamond sandwiches, a divine steamed pumpkin bun from the Asian grocery, sugar snap peas, and carrots.

Technorati tags: lunchtime, bento

Love the lunchyboxy thing-a-ma-bob! I took in the makings for taco salad today....this would have been perfect...instead I hauled in 4 tupperwear things and a ziplock baggie!
what a cool lunch idea! I think I usually have 2 or 3 days of good lunch preparation and 2 or 3 with a quick few slices of cheese and crackers and whatever fruit I can find in the house.
