Finally our new BENTO boxes arrived from Japan!
This metal one is for Terry.
I never thought the one I had was girly, but when Terry told me that he wanted a “manly” BENTO box, I could see that the kitties on the lid were probably not very appropriate for a 40-something male (lol).
I really like this brand.
It’s a beautiful simple design.
The only negative thing is that it easily shows fingerprints.
But it’s a minor problem.
I just need to be careful right before we take pictures.
Love the retro looking logo on the back, too.
One of the main dishes of this BENTO box is this blistered Kabocha.
No need to peel the skin.
Delicious!
The other main dish was this soy curd vegetable wrap.
The lunch does look “manly” in the “manly” box!
I’ve started my Sashiko (Japanese traditional embroidery) project #3.
Can’t wait to finish and show it on the blog.
