Merciful God, You are great in compassion and Your tenderness for us is without measure. We ask You to give us today our daily bread, and also provide for the needs of all of Your hungry children around the world. Through Christ Your Son and Our Lord. Amen.

Bento Art

.


I have been neglecting my son's Bento Box lately and so when I made his lunch Monday night, I pulled the Bento out of storage. I know celery sticks with peanut butter and orange quarters are not art, but they are so much prettier in a Bento Box. Tucked inside his lunch box along side I packed a Dietz & Watson Santa Fe turkey and Muenster cheese Sandwich, and a homemade Three Musketeers brownie.

cmarie,
A Bento Box is a Japanese lunch box or sorts used to serve a variety of foods. They fill them with all sorts of beautiful dishes and they really are very pretty. I keep tell my high schooler than I'm going to get him some sushi to fill it up. He's looking forward to it since he is an adventuresome eater!
