My First Homemade Bento

This morning I made my first "kyarabento" (character lunchbox) It was a lot of fun even if it took hours! I made Totoro not just because he is adorable but also because he is an easy shape and good (appetizing) colors to make out of food.

I've been on a big Japanese food kick lately, can you tell? These lunchboxes were very tasty!
