BENTO BENTO BENTO <3
So, since I'm kinda done with the cleaning business and looking for a new job, I'll have a more consistent lunch break, meaning I won't have to resort to fast food often. And so, in the interest of having a delicious daily lunch every day with lots of variety and relatively low ingredient cost, I've opted to try out bento. And... wow. There are so many things I didn't know about bento. There are so many accessories and whatnot... like all the molds and cutting tools and themed chopsticks and dividers and little containers that go INSIDE the bento box. It's like a whole world of wonderment! It has captured my heart!
These are some of the things on my "possibly plan to buy" list so far:
one - pink bear box with matching pink chopsticks
two - cherry blossom print box with a strap (and it's microwavable)
three - cherry-print box with a matching fork
four - tools that let you cut your sausage into little octopuses
five - a rice mold shaped like... HELLO KITTY
six - cutters to shape your ham and cheese like little animals
seven - cotton banana box... it's so cute
eight - cutters to shape your nori like faces
nine animal-shaped bread cutters
ten - sauce bottles with lids shaped like bears and apples
eleven - Hello Kitty 2 tier box (and this because it's also Hello Kitty)
twelve - little mini forks shaped like animals!
thirteen - cases for ketchup and mayo shaped like animals
fourteen - cutters to make your sandwiches decorated with hearts
It's all so extravagant and adorable and amazing! It really brings out my inner childishness XD as soon as I saw the little animal-shaped forks I started screaming. I could gush over these silly little things all day. I can't really afford all of this now so I'm waiting to buy anything until I have a job and receive my first paycheck. I already have a bento box but it's only about seven by five inches so I would starve XD
Also, I'm in the market for a heartshaped rice mold if anyone knows where I can get one. I plan to go all out when I can afford it. Time for fun!
I have an interview at Papa Murphy's today <3 hopefully it'll go well because it's within walking distance of my house. I'm so darn nervous. I always get awkward after a while and I feel like I'm creepy because I'm a little too thorough about eye contact.
And finally... I've been collecting a bunch more Iwako erasers lately. They're only a dollar at Michaels. I bought all of the hamsters and the bird (which I bought last year in pink) in blue. I also bought a lot of cheap Iwako knockoffs shaped like various food. I have a huge collection of puzzle erasers now. I'll post a picture when I can find my camera ^^;
EDIT: stop the presses, because I figured out what I'm going to buy for bento aside from the cute little accessories and cutters (I need those too). It's this:
UWAAAAAAH!
