Bee recently started attending preschool every day and I've entered into the world of packing lunches. The alternative is to pay $4.50 for a school-prepared lunch that Bee may or may not eat and would probably cost me less than half that to prepare myself.
Being the internet junkie that I am, as I contemplated what foods would be appropriate for a toddler's lunch, I came across the idea of bento lunches and this website. Apparently, like being frugal currently is, bento lunches are quite trendy.
After a sad bento-less first week at preschool while I was still researching this lunch idea and acquiring the needed equipment and supplies, we're off to a great start. Bee loves her bento boxes and I like to think that she's the envy of her classroom.
