Swedish weather and general stress levels have had a serious impact on my bento mojo recently. When even my coworkers started to complain that they hadn’t seen any pretty, happy lunchboxes in a while I knew it was time to make some again.
Brown rice with the last of this season’s cherry tomatoes (we cut them down now and will be replanting as soon as we get reliable periods of sunlight again), cucumber, carrots, avocado, tamagoyaki and soy sauce. My box also has some quick-pickled zucchini which the BF didn’t like as much.
A small box I made sometime before Christmas already, but forgot to post.
Mushroom risotto with cherry tomatoes and herbs as decoration, white bell pepoers, more tomatoes and some chili cheese wedges in the small box.
Oh, oh – you are alive?!
;-)
To give you hope, we had daylight at 6:45 am till 5:15 pm today (one day of sunny weather) near Munich. The sun is really coming now to Sweden! Give her some lousy days for 1000 km to come over. Yeah, for me The Sun is a real ‘she’ .
I will seed the Tiny Jim tomatos these days – third year as per your recommendation ;-)
And, really important – do not allow the job to hijack your complete live! There is a life after pack-in time – and if you do not do _so_ – over a long time, you might find yourself near a friend of mine, you might end like him watching the pansies (Stiefmütterchen) from below… It’s a quiet place.
Do better and stop in from time to time. I know the kind of business speaking of …
Thank you!
And yes, I am aware of it. Taking more time off this spring. Hopefully things will calm down!
It’s been really lovely and warm these last days so I will be going home early and enjoy some sunlight before it sets :)
Yes a new bento! It looks good! Can you finish it all in one go? I think it would be too much for me to eat in one break!
It’s one box for me and one for the BF. I don’t eat breakfast so I’m usually very hungry come lunchtime :)
Haha, I know it’s for two people! But the bento still looks very big. Maybe it’s just the picture?
Can’t imagine not eating breakfast, think I’d actually faint or something. I’m more of a breakfast/dinner person. Don’t really have a lot of time to eat lunch.
