Props to bento peeps

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

I had to post this for you guys to see - http://geekadelphia.com/2008/09/05/star-wars-bento-lunches-taste-like-science-fiction/

This is a link to a couple of Star Wars themed bentos. They are super awesome!

This is the kind of thing I aspire to, but never seem to have the time to plan and make.

If any readers have their own creations like this, post them here, or drop me a line and I’ll link to them for you!

Blatant plug for my new writing career

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

I got my start writing here, but the pay is well… non-existant.

So, I have started writing over at the Helium website.

If you want to know more about Helium, let me know. Check me out at Helium.com

Rememberance Day

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

Don’t forget the moment of silence today at 11:11am in memory of the fallen soliders, especially from World War II.

They died to preserve our way of life, so make the most of it folks!

And thats enough seriousness for today.

Have fun satisfying your choco-holic tonight! and tomorrow, and the next day and…

I’ll try to have something orange for Monday’s lunch.

Did everyone have a happy turkey day?

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

For our international readers, Monday was the Thanksgiving holiday in Canada where its traditional to serve turkey for dinner. Its pretty much a harvest festival, but a number of explorers landed in Canada in the fall after long trips across the ocean from Europe. So there are a few things to celebrate.

I’m thankful I have a fridge with leftovers that I can enjoy this week!

Especially since I will be going out to vote for a new leader for our country after work tonight!

Back in action

Back from the hot and rainy south!

We’ll see if it has inspired me.

Keep watching!

Site on hold for a week

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

I will be unavailable for about a week, so don’t expect any posts during that time.

See you in October!

Welcome back to school folks!

Monday, September 8th, 2008

Just a little note from the site admin to say welcome back to school!

Since the idea behind bento is school box lunches, this seems like a valid thing to acknowledge.

I seem to have a lot of Still Alive posts..

Well, 2 small children, a new house, and super busy at work is a formula for no spare time. This inspired me to try out the pre-cooked and pre-sliced chicken from Costco.

Just got it today. Its just chilled, so we can divide it up into meal sized containers and freeze it at home which is good. It should speed up meal prep a lot. It might even give me time to get back to bento!

Keep an eye open for this new ingredient in upcoming bento.

Unexpected downtime

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

This past weekend you may have missed us. This site, and many others hosted at the same location, went down due to an emergency with the hosting servers.

Things should be back to normal now.
