What's On Our Table - CookingLight.com
http://ourtable.cookinglight.comfound a portable bento kit that is almost as fun to pack as it is to unpack and enjoy. As I did a little research, I discovered a fascinating bento subculture, with wonderful blogs such as Lunch in a Box, which highlights useful tips, easy recipes, and links to other bento resources.
