of all the times for my camera to die.

I spent part of the night looking at food pr0n-- specifically, bento.

So this morning I bought a little reusable container that's about 7" by 5" by 1.5".

I bought a new rice cooker, cause I had given my last one away thinking I had a spare, and didn't.

I bought some ground beef and some veggies.

And I made a little box lunch that has eight tiny meatballs, three larger rice balls, some steamed veggies, a Roma tomato, and two strawberries, all separated by lettuce leaf dividers. A separate tiny box holds my fig-cookie dessert.

The kid also has a box, which is rice, veggies, and meatballs, with sides of sliced tomato and cut up strawberries.

I am totally thrilled. This beats Hot Pockets and sandwiches all to hell.
