Description:

After months of packing bentos for the family, I recently began drawing out the boxes to menu plan a bit more efficiently. Then I got the idea to make little paper versions of the food to plan the boxes out. This led me to the thought that bento would make a cute and fun ATC.

So, whether you prefer traditional or themed, I'd love to see what you would put in your bento box.

(If you need some help on what a bento is, there are some fabulous groups here as well as on Flickr that love to go into detail.)

Swap Details:

There will be 1 ATCs going to 1 partners (1 ATCs total). Standard ATC rules on size and thickness. The challenge: Whether it's Hello Kitty, Day at the Zoo, Ocean Friends, etc... it's up to you.
It is sender's choice on the ATCs theme, however, if you like, you may peek at your recipient's preferences for ideas.

Swap is international since bento is popular and varied around the world.

Please do not include real food items (such as nori or furikake) in or on your card as these may cause some issues with customs and long-term storage of cards.

Newbies are welcome with a full profile.

Flakers will be rated a 1.

I reserve the right to ban as I see fit.

Let's have some fun and make some bento love!

I love Biggie's site over at lunchinabox.net and cookingcute. Most the folks in the flickr bento pools have their own blogs.
