What Now

Sigh.

Yesterday I found some easy recipes for Japanese food that I could make ahead of time and pack for lunches. Nothing fancy, though. I've been reading about bento boxed lunches and like the fact that they are basically small portions of foods with a lot of different variety. A lot of Bento lunches are very elaborate and cute, with food made into animals, shaped rice, and things cut into shapes. I don't want to get that fancy with my lunches, but I was mainly looking for something more interesting than what I normally bring. One of my daily reads is a blog called "My Lunch Can Beat Up Your Lunch" where the writer bascially takes a picture of her bento lunch every day and posts recipes and things. I was intrigued! I found a couple of recipes on her site I thought would be good. I made a list of a few things I'd need to buy in addition to my regular grocery items, and bought them when I stopped at Target after work. My problem is, now I can't remember which recipes I looked up and I have no idea what to do with the stuff I bought yesterday. I could go through all of the recipes on her site, I suppose, but not only would that take forever, I really only bought staples like rice and wonton wrappers - which are in more than one recipe to begin with. Oh well, I am just going to have to get creative. I'm good at creative.
