Hello From a Ballet Bento-er!
posted by joiebento on Fri, 2009-01-09 04:14
Just wanted to say hi! I've been doing bentos for about eight months now, and it sure has been a great way to spice up my lunch life! I'm an illustrator who does ballet dancing as a passionate hobby, and I think coupling the two together is a great health regimen. I love learning how to cook new things, so bento has been a great channel for that. My favorite new thing I've learned to prepare are Inarizushis... and they are delicious. Nomnom.
Anyway, hello! Glad to meet the other people taking the Bento Challenge with me!

Hi Joie, and welcome! Ballet - that's one thing I've always dreamed about doing but never gotten to it...(though I used to do ballroom/latin dancing...need to find the time to get back to that!)
The Big Onigiri.

Hi! I think it's great that you're into ballet! I'm going to a modern dance, but we have classical ballet classes once a day, and I agree that combining that with bento is really great! :D
Hello and thanks. It's never too late for ballet, they have classes just for adult beginners! That is how I got my start, and I have never looked back. You should give it a try sometime! ^^
Yay! I'm glad there are other dancers in the community. Dance is just such a great way to get into shape, in my opinion. I actually took a Modern class in college and enjoyed it. Nice to meet you!
Hehe, that was supposed to be a modern dance *school* :P
I used to dance as well (did the usually middle school dance school thing and then on to ballroom/latin dancing in highschool up until the last year or so) and I wish I had a partner to dance with again (as my fiance thinks ballroom is gay! :O). I've always wanted to be a pretty ballerina. XD Hope it is fun.
Yum yum bento yum yum!
I only ever took ballet in conjunction with opera and theatre training. I threw my last pair of pointe shoes away with a nostalgic tear and a satisfied smile. ^_^
I'm satisfied being an enthusiastic and appreciative audience member.
