I got bento boxes & other goodies from Japan!

My friend Tracey, who lives in Japan, sent me a box of goodies and wow, was I surprised when I opened it! First, how she got all that stuff into a small box is beyond me (Tracey, were you a mover/packer in a previous life?) and second, I'm thrilled she sent so much! She really outdid herself and what she sent will be so helpful to me in my efforts to take healthy, low carb meals to work.


Here's a two tier bento box and insulated bag


And here's the top of the bento box, opened to show the chopsticks nestled in their rightful place. Do I know how to use chopsticks? Nope, but I'm going to learn.


Here's a small one tier box. I think this is a sidecar. Tracey?


This is a red bento box, a belt to put around it, a cloth to wrap it in, a napkin (I think) and chopsticks. Red is one of my favorite colors and this is just great!


All wrapped up and ready to go


Here we have animal and fishie sauce bottles and kitchen sponges with faces!

My friend also sent candy, seasoning type items to be added to rice, and a few more goodies but the pictures of those things didn't turn out well. I'll try again tomorrow. In the meantime, I have some wonderful new things to play with.

Arigato gozaimasu, tomodachi!
