Bento Lunches?
I'm going to be student teaching in about 8 months, and then teaching full-time in a little over a year (if I'm lucky and get a job, that is--and with the way the education budget is in my state it might be difficult to get hired). I've been considering what I'll have for lunch as a teacher, and I think packing a bento lunch every day would be the healthiest thing. I've ordered a bento cookbook and I've been browsing bento boxes on JBox. I'm not much of a cook, so I'm hoping to improve my cooking skills in the next year.
Does anyone have any suggestions for bento meals, websites to shop for boxes, or good cookbooks? How about cookbooks that feature cheap, easy, healthy meals for students/people without a lot of cash?
And on a final note: My new boyfriend loves to cook (and is a tea afficionado), so I'm sure he will show me some great recipes. I may need to make a new post soon to rave about how awesome he is....
