Catching Up

It has been a while since I posted. The holidays got the best of me and there was a lot of transition in my life. For the New Year I have a new career goal (Massage Therapy, School starts the 13th) and a new job. My schedule is going to be a nightmare so Bento-ing is going to require a lot of planning ahead and weekend work. Thankfully JustBento.com's Maki and AIBento.net / BentoCentral.com's Pikko have provided me lots of useful make ahead tips. I have to admit I feel extremely lucky being able to google the word Bento and find such amazing knowledge bases out there! I could never have gotten to where I am without the net!

So let me bore you for a moment with my New Year's Resolutions and I shall give you the Bento's I have not yet posted.

I resolve for 2010:
1) To reduce the amount of garbage and food waste I produce by Bentoing more, and buying less packaged food items when possible.
2) To recycle more
3) To use public transportation as often as possible and rely on cars less
4) To try to get below 210 lbs before my birthday in July (with school, work, and Bento this should be easier)
5) To travel out of Florida for some sort of actual vacation
6) To try to save some money!!!
7) To get my Herb garden up and running AND to take care of all the plants
8) To try and take a Japanese language course by the end of the year
9) To explore more cuisines
10) To be thankful every day for what I have instead of upset over what I don't.

And now that you're bored - The Bento
