ilovebento's
Besides lovingmyhouse ilovetocook. Not that i'm the second Martha Stewart mind you, i'm more the Bridget Jones type. I came across the Japanese style of lunchboxes called Bento and got totally emotional when reading the meaning of it. A Bento is the condensed physical representation of a mother's love.Wow! So wrapping up two cheese sandwiches and an apple in tin foil as i do isn't enough.So i bought these cute boxes and decided i should try harder!

I think I need a Japanese Mum, and some of those lovely coloured Bento's.
ReplyDeleteLinda you asked what a swap was.
Well basically you get a swap partner who you buy for and they buy for you, there is a theme, say flowers. You buy some items and make some too, when ready you then send it to your partner, then likewise you receive a parcel of goodies from your swap partner.
On Friday were doing a post about it, Which will explain it better, I hope you will join in ..x
@ted and bunny, we do have Marmite but i'm afraid it's typical British thing :0 x.
ReplyDelete@Emma, thanks for explaining the swap thing, i'll check your blog on friday.x
