I love the Japanese tradition of carefully preparing bentos, it’s definitely an art! So here’s a great way to so something good and practice making your own bentos at the same time. A group of bento makers and bento fans from around the world are auctioning off bento gear and accessories to raise money — with all proceeds going to Japan relief efforts.

You can see all the cute bento boxes up for auction here. The little winking guy below would be a welcome companion for any meal.

We had a totally cute pink bento box but my oldest daughter didn’t like having such a different lunch box from her friends. We found these to be perfect for us —
