So for today, I'll leave you with a really cool video on "how to make a bento." There's even a really cute doggy in it. I've always had a fascination with bentos. Not just because of the delicious eats people pack into them, but also the different containers they come in. Whenever I travel to Little Tokyo in Los Angeles, I have the habit of checking out the different styles of bento boxes. Maybe I should start a little collection. :)

Bento
I know today's April Fool's Day, but I'm horrible at playing tricks or making jokes. I'm usually the recipient of the trick/joke. But today is a bit of an off day for me because yesterday was in no way a day for cooking. Over the weekend, a close relative's mom had passed away and the funeral was yesterday afternoon. So it was a bit of an emotional day for me. I gave my first eulogy ever. Extremely difficult to do especially when I'm talking through tears. But I'm glad I did.

So sorry to hear about your loss, Jenn. I'm sure your relatives really appreciated you doing the eulogy. Hope you're doing OK :)
And I've seen this show 'Cooking with Dog' before - hilarious! The sausage octopus is brilliant - I'm totally going to make that! And the chef is a true master with that tamago pan (puts me to shame). I love bento boxes because I'm all about variety, even more fun to collect the cute containers.
I'm sorry to hear that, Jenn. our thoughts go out to you and yours.
Sorry to hear about that, my thoughts are with you.

Oh Jenn, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. It must have been difficult to do the eulogy but at the same time a way to really bring closure and so your love for your relative.
Regarding the bento boxes and your idea of starting a collection look forward to seeing along with Production Eats - No. 18, Bento Boxes - No. 1 =)
I'm sorry for your loss.
