I haven’t got a clue as to when this obsession began with bentos, but I can say it feeds my love of shopping, cooking and spending money on thingies for my kitchen. If I had to pin point a place in time where the seed was planted, I would have to guess it was around the time I started searching for a decent rice cooker, which I’ll write about later.
Anyway, my love for all things Japanese was born again and through countless hours of surfing the net for information on a popular bento, Mr. Bento. I suddenly got bit with the bento bug and now I’m reading several daily blogs which feature cooking for bento boxes.
On “Play with Your Food”, I’m joining in on the online fun, to concoct a visual culinary delight of combining my budding journalistic skills with my love for cooking and international foods. Each month I am aiming to create different dishes from around the world for lunch, yet grad school studies may when out. But, I’ve gotta eat right?
So, welcome and enjoy.
