Laptop Lunches- Bento boxes |
I love bento boxes. I'm not so good about MAKING them (damn $4 cafeteria lunches!), but I love the idea of them, the look of them, the nutrition of them, and the making of them.
You can buy traditional Asian bento boxes from places like H-Mart and other Asian markets, but I also like how we now have "American" counterparts. Pottery Barn kids has one, but I really like the company Laptop Lunches.
Why?
1. Unlike Pottery Barn's boxes, you can move around and take in an out the compartments. Even with traditional Asian boxes, I don't always find this (or I have to go to different sites and the like).
2. Their webpage and blog is AWESOME! Besides having lots of cute products, Laptop Lunches' webpage has a ton of menus... and they are all flexible to Americans! (yay!) As in, they have menus with leftovers and vegetarian and for holidays and seasonal- it's great!!
So, random article and plug, but when I see a product I like, I like to share it!!
Ciao, ciao!
Oh- here's that picture I was talking about... to give you an idea of what I do :P
