Bento to Go
I love boxes. The best things come in small boxes: Chinese take out, cold burgers and fries in little white diner boxes, truffles from the local chocolate place in bright boxes done up with a bow – & Bento boxes. {I’m hungry; you’ll have to read something else for non-food obsessed writing right now.}
Bento boxes are the perfect lunch box. They keep your food from touching, they hold just-right utensils, and you can often heat up the elements separately. I can pack my shrimp in one and my rice/udon noodles in the other, or my curry in one, rice in the other, and black rice pudding in the next. {Don’t get me started on Thai food right now; I could live on curry all winter long. I am also capable of putting away enough black rice pudding to make the average diner nauseated} *Update: I have apparently eaten enough that it now makes me nauseated. I spoke too soon.

It’s the perfect way to tote your holiday leftovers to work, to the park, or over to a friend’s house. Food tastes better when you share it.
