Isn't 20 bucks a bit too much? Just a thought... ;)

What's Bento please? I live in the UK and haven't heard of this

A bento box is a japanese lunchbox.

Here is a blog with wounderfull pictures and recipes: http://www.cookingcute.com/

here the link to the flickrgroup: http://flickr.com/groups/bentoboxes/pool/

I hope this enough information :)

missychrissy 05/29/2007 #

thank you, don't think we get things like that over here so I'll have to pass on this one

Okay, I'm a total bento geek. I love the idea of this swap! :)

Thanks for hosting this swap and for those links! This is the first I've heard of Bento. (Well, I've seen the word but didn't really know what it was till now.) I am really enjoying all the new things I am learning from you creative people on Swap-bot! ♥

I found out there is a store near me that sells things like this and I just went to check it out. I'm in!

I bought some stuff to get me started on these fun lunches and can't wait to get started.

Something I wanted but couldn't find are egg molds. If my partner could send me one or two of these, that'd be great!

Thanks!!!

Oh! I also would love to have some cute toothpicks and sauce containers. I couldn't find ones like I see in the Bentos on the websites you mentioned.

I am going to start my bento collection/lifestyle this weekend with a trip to Chinatown for my first box and accessories (practicing some recipes this week, actually)!

I am particularly intrigued with the mini cups, food dividers, sauce containers, and food pics!

I am SO excited to have some help in starting it all!

I love to look at the lunches on Flickr (there are also some neat ones if you search "laptop lunchbox", sort of the American version of the Bento. :)

user8927 06/18/2007 #

For my partner:

I have a navy blue bento so something bright that would match or stand out would be great. I love pink, white, black.

starrycat 06/27/2007 #

Awesome!!! i was WAITING for a swap like this! Good thing I did a bento search or I would have missed it!!!! The top thing on my wish list is I would LOVE TO HAVE AN OCTOPUS WEINER CUTTER!!!!! Lol, you have no idea, lol. Other than that, I don't care, except I don't need any dividers, but mini cupcake liners would be great (I saw some used in a bento cookbook, so I got an idea from that for something lol) Oh, and I would love to have my things in black or pink, but it's no biggie. The only other thing I would like is a bag to put my bento in, but I'm flexible!! All of the fun is in getting things that others pick out for you anyway!

Chickpea 06/29/2007 #

Yay! I'm crazy for bento! I only wish I had lunch outside of my house more often to make use of it. Oh, well, my husband gets some really cute lunches!

I'd particularly like sauce containers, an octopus weiner cutter (for my soy dogs), fruit cutters, and anything kawaii!

Since I don't eat eggs, please no egg molds.

user8927 07/ 3/2007 #

Seems alot of people are after wiener cutters...you can get them from www.jlist.com in various shape i.e octopus, penguin etc :)

LisaLaughs 07/16/2007 #

Abiona, your package is on its way from California! :)

user8927 07/17/2007 #

Shaya, Your package from New Zealand will be sent today :)

tamipal6 08/ 8/2007 #

I still have not received anything for this swap. My partner has marked that she "sent" but nothing has arrived. I have sent a pm, but no reply yet.

tamipal6 08/10/2007 #

I got a small but sweet package today from Jacqueline! It was postmarked Aug 8 and I appreciate that she sent something. My favorite is a nice assortment of pics.

DreamHope 09/29/2007 #

I don't know if anyone is still looking at this board, but I'm looking for smartcakes' partners (the ones she was supposed to send to) for this swap. Please check out this thread http://www.swap-bot.com/forums/topic/2934/2#comment-63972 and let me know who you are so we can arrange an angel.

Thank you!
