Cecilia is our final winner! Her use for the bento set:
"This one is even nicer than the last lunch box.
Once again, I would use this for myself.
This would be great to hold my dinner. I would pack a chicken wrap, fresh fruit, and baby carrot sticks.
I pack meals since I work the evening shift. Not all hospitals leave their cafeterias open past 6 or 7 PM. When busy, I can't always make it there on time, so packing assures me a meal."
All the giveaways for the bentos will be in the mail this week. My apologies to the earlier winners--I haven't forgotten about you!

I am LOVING the comments I'm getting for this week's Bento Box Giveaway! Keep them coming and don't forget, if you don't win this week, you have another 2 chances over the next coming weeks!
Just a few photos of Bubs lunches over the last few weeks.
Contents of Asvel 430ML box: Turtle shaped ham sandwich (used a PlayDoh cutter that the kids never used), carrot sticks, mango chunks, ginger cookies.
Prep Time: 5 minutes. The cutter isn't meant to be used on food so it was a little bit of a challenge to work with.
Verdict: Lunch box came home empty!
Contents of Zojirushi Mini Bento: Mac & Cheese, carrots, ketchup, Veggie Booty
Prep Time: 5 minutes. Warmed the Mac & Cheese up in the microwave in the thermal container where it stayed warm until lunch time. There are 20 kids in Bubs' class so I can't imagine the line for the microwave!
Verdict: Bubs ate most of his lunch. Not an empty bento day but close.
Contents of Lock & Lock Bento: Cheese quesadilla cut into wedges, crackers, cheese rounds, carrot sticks.
Prep Time: 5 minutes. This lunch was packed for our trip up to Wisconsin to go apple picking.
Verdict: The boys devoured it!
Contents of Zojirushi Mini Bento: leftover baked chicken with honey dijon mustard and parmesian cheese, watermelon & Goldfish
Prep Time: 5 minutes. Sliced up and packed the watermelon the night before.
Verdict: Bubs ate about 1/2 his chicken. He had been fine with it at dinner but I guess he just didn't have the taste for it the next day.
I know I've gotten a bit behind in my posting again so to make-up for my absenteeism, I'm giving away a few goodies! From October 24-November 14 I'll be giving away (3) different bento box sets. You'll have to check back each week on Saturday morning to see the new giveaway.
Mister says,"Don't be shy about commenting! You know you want one of these sets!"
