<br />
One of the easiest ways to start packing bentos is to buy a divided box. There are many different ones to choose from. Some of my favorites are <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&field-brandtextbin=PlanetBox&linkCode=ur2&node=284507&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=MYFEFPDXNTWIR67K" target="_blank">PlanetBox</a>, <a href="http://www.lunchbots.com/cmd.php?Clk=5045679" target="_blank">lunchbots</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EXNBLCQ/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00EXNBLCQ&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=O7EJW6OI7HGEGAFG" target="_blank">laptop lunches</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&field-brandtextbin=Yubo&linkCode=ur2&node=284507&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=HF7EYZPCOI3ZSZOR" target="_blank">Yubo</a> and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004UIRUJ2/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B004UIRUJ2&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=T6VUS4NT5XTBSZNL" target="_blank">EasyLunchboxes</a> which I used in my lunch below.<br />
<br />
Then get a cute cutter. Cookie cutters work great or something like the multifunctional <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KHRG2O4/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00KHRG2O4&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=C6OEZTY5L5UQLLAO" target="_blank">CuteZCute</a> cutter. The cutter can be used on sandwiches, tortillas, fruit etc<br />
<br />
Picks are a great way to add some fun quickly my favorite are theses <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HWZ2E4G/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00HWZ2E4G&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=KCYTDG6XPUSFPSWR%22%3EABC%20alphabet%20food%20picks%20for%20Bento%20Box%20Lunch%20Box%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=blameitonth0b-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00HWZ2E4G" target="_blank">alphabet picks</a>. Put them all together and you have a quick and fun lunch for back to school.<br />

<div dir="ltr">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Pick a picnic spot you can walk, bike or boat to or arrive by public transit. If that's not possible, carpool with friends.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Great produce makes the chef's job super easy. Think simple.

<div dir="ltr">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Farmer's markets have the freshest and tastiest fruits and vegetables available from the area. Organic products are hormone and pesticide-free, making them safe to eat.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Say goodbye to throw-aways and plastics. Ask picnickers to BYO dishes, water bottles, utensils, etc. This can be done tastefully if you explain you're hosting a zero-waste party and need some help to accomplish this.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">If that’s not your style, pack a sturdy cardboard box with reusable items to share with your invitees, such as non breakable <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=621897&u=854516&m=40933&urllink=&afftrack=">stainless steel picnic plates</a>, reusable bamboo utensils, reusable straws, <a href="http://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=621895&u=854516&m=40933&urllink=&afftrack=">washable cotton napkins</a> and sturdy mason jars for use as cups.</span></div>

My lunch features nut butter and sprinkle flower sandwiches, in a flowerpot with peanut butter and Oreo crumbles and leaf picks. Carrot and cucumber flowers and strawberries and blueberries. This was a very simple lunch to make.

I have been wanting a Traditional <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00856PVBE/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00856PVBE&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=4ZZT572OHUPTNXBO" target="_blank">Magewappa</a> or bentwood box and finally got one. This is a cheaper version as most of these cost $100 this one was $25 shipped. So I ordered one for my birthday and patiently waited for it to arrive from Japan.<br />
<br />
So a more traditional bento for a more traditional box.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Rice with furikoshi sprinkles. Lettuce, tomatoes, boiled egg and firecracker sushi with fried prawn.<br />
<br />
I love the styling of this box . It's pretty enough to sit on a shelf for display. It doesn't come with a band for securing it but they are easily bought and I have a selection from other boxes.<br />

So here is this years Bento Bloggers and friends Star Wars Lunch blog hop.<br />
<br />
This year we travel to The ice planet Hoth to meet a rather sad looking Wampa, because Luke has cut his arm off with his lightsaber!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Sad Wampa is an open faced sandwich with whipped Philadephia cream cheese. I just cut a vaguely wampa-ish shape out of bread and spread the cream cheese on in a messy way. The features are cut out from tortilla with <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0012DMI1S/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0012DMI1S&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=G5WVQM3TNEJTPXJO" target="_blank">americolor</a> markers to add details and a little strawberry jam dabbed where the poor Wampas arm used to be.<br />
<br />
Also served is strawberries and blackberries and yoghurt with pineapple chunks for the Wampas ice cave.<br />
<br />
All served in an <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004UIRUJ2/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B004UIRUJ2&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20&linkId=ES47WCHAZ5W7SYGX" target="_blank">EasyLunchboxes</a> box.<br />

<br />
Who loves him some pie more than Dean Winchester from Supernatural so I made a protection symbol pie.<br />
<br />
Here is is before I cooked it.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
It's an Apple pie, I was worried it would get stuck in this bowl so I foolishly decided to move it. It didn't survive the transfer well, oops!<br />
<br />
I also made a burger because you all know how much Dean likes his burgers. This is a beef and mushroom burger with Trader Joes 21 seasoning salute and cheese. Absolutely no leviathan food additives.<br />

Her mask is made from half a large tomato with cheese and Nori decorations.

<br />
I made some snack plates to eat while watching today
Ood versions of pigs in blankets made from lil smokies cut the ends into eight and pop in hot water they curl into little octopi or in this case Ood faces I then stuck then into crescent rounds and baked. Once cooked I added a couple of chocolate chip eyes. Super quick to make and fun too.<br />
<br />
Adipose marshmallow are stuck together from large and small marshmallows attached with spaghetti and face drawn on with americolor food writers.<br />
<br />
Jammie Dodgers because well I like them and if you are a fan you will know why.<br />
<br />
"Fish fingers" and "custard" well mozarella sticks and cheese sauce!<br />
<br />
Finally a little red pepper fez and bow tie. <br />

It has two layers and a lid which doubles as a bowl so if you want to send a thermos of soup you can pour into a bowl. There is also enough room for a sachet of instant soup or a packet of gummies to tuck inside. It comes with a elasticated band to hold it all together. It is a smaller sized lunch box if you are used to american lunch boxes (but an average size bento box) but I easily fit enough in it to feed my kids and it's great because of the bowl to send with soup or pasta for those extra hungry days.</div>

I bring to you, Zero the Ghost dog from The Nightmare before Christmas.<br />
<br />
Zero is Jack Skellingtons Ghost Dog and has a glowing pumpkin nose.<br />

<br /></div>
Zero is made from a slice of Jicama with a tomato nose (realized afterwards I should have used an orange tomato).<br />
<br />
He is on a sandwich of marbliscious rye swirl bread from the HEB bakery.<br />
<br />
I just cut him out with a craft knife using a sketch on parchment.<br />
<br />
<br />
The top left has Greek yogurt with honey and colored orange. On top sits a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FO9ZQNS/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00FO9ZQNS&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20">Ghoulie Gummy</a> jack o lantern from Trader Joes.<br />
<br />
Below this is a babybel cheese with a gummy eye (I got this from Target <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DI3KQ8C/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00DI3KQ8C&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20">Monsters University Gummy Eyeballs</a>)<br />
<br />
Raspberries and cherry tomatoes fill two compartments<br />
<br />
Then the inspiration for the lunch a marshmallow Jack Skellington face.<br />
<br />
This was from a lollipop at Walgreens it had two heads and then gummy swirls so I just took it apart).<br />
<br />
All in a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004KNJWP2/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B004KNJWP2&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20">PlanetBox</a> Rover.<br />

Instead I got inspiration to make this Charlotte's Web lunch.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
The little spiders on the webs reminded me of Charlotte's children floating away on their webs.<br />
<br />
Charlotte is made from cheese and Nori on a web made from tortilla with <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0020ZURDI/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0020ZURDI&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20"> AmeriColor</a> marker to draw the web and "some pig"<br />
<br />
Wilbur the pig is made from Ham. Well he is a pig! Underneath Wilbur and the web is a sandwich<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
In the other hat of the box is raspberries and blackberries, Trader Joes yoghurt stars, sweet bell peppers and a couple of Ghoulie Gummies from Trader Joes.<br />
<br />
All packed in a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084GWAGE/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0084GWAGE&linkCode=as2&tag=blameitonth0b-20">Monbento</a> box.<br />

<br />
It took me a little while to find it. I found the Chocolate milk although only in the smaller sized packets in Randall's, I searched several supermarkets and couldn't find the orange colored milk. <br />
<br />
They do have a place on their <a href="http://trumoo.com/" target="_blank">website</a> to find stockists though.<br />
<br />
They also have some great fun recipes for Halloween themed drinks and a contest to win a trip to see behind the scenes at a Goosebumps filming. If you enter you also get a coupon off the latest Goosebumps DVD.<br />
<br />
TruMoo adds pure cocoa and just enough sugar to fresh, pure milk from your local dairy to create a chocolaty taste, all with no high fructose corn syrup. It comes in at 140 calories per serving although this differes based on your location as its made from local dairies.<br />

Out of my three kids only one really liked this Milk. I think they found the 1% a little watered down, but my kids have been drinking whole milk recently. Price wise it was a little pricey where I found it at $3.79 a half gallon. I think my kids will probably stick to the chocolate milk brand they have been drinking but I still want to try the special edition orange vanilla milk.<br />
<br />
I recived a coupon from <a href="http://www.bzzagent.com/" target="_blank">Bzzagent</a> to try this product. I was not compensated in any other way and all opinions are my own.<br />
