Bento, Baby!

I have recently become seriously obsessed with Bento, and after bugging the crap out of a lovely internet friend, demanding all of her knowledge on the subject, I set out to create my own for the very first time. I practiced on our dinner, and this is what I came up with...

Pink food-colored rice, carrot confetti, shapes cut out from cheese, broccoli grass, tomato and cheese flowers, and a plum flower in vanilla yogurt with gummis to decorate.

I am confident you will be seeing a lot more bento from this housewife, as my kids are just as fascinated as I am (although Luke was dipping his broccoli florets in vanilla yogurt *shudder*. Hey, whatever gets veg into the kid, I guess, right?). :) So much fun!
