I never normally go for introductions but here it goes... Hi all, I'm (nearly) 23, I'm from England, and I've been making bentos for...one whole week now! It was a complete accident that I came across all this. Me and my boyfriend spent a week laid up with swine flu (it's not fun!), and his housemates had us quarantined to one room! So with no TV channels, no DVD player, no outside world, and only a Playstation and a semi-functional laptop for entertainment, I planned to use my time to research sakura for a 'project' I'm working on.

Hello everyone! I've just joined, but i have been on this site quite a few times now browsing through the recipes and always meant to join but must have been sidetracked by the thought of food everytime, until now! So just a quick hello, i am quite a beginner when it comes to bento and havent exactly got award winning presentation skills as of yet but have tried some really great recipes out so far. I'm at university studying dance so i need lots of energy, if anyone has any bento tips to help me out they are very much appreciated!

Haha, I enjoy making short jokes about myself xD Hello! I'm Marova, though you can call me Maro. I have been off-and-on bentoing for a few years and I have the gross pics to prove it! Seriously...you wouldn't believe some of the crap I made Dx

Hai all :] my names Breanna, but you can call me Bre ^-^ I have known of bentos for a while now, ive attempted to make a few but they didnt turn out the greatest ^-^** so i thought i would join this community =^-^= Id love to make some new friends on here :D n make some awesome bentos for my senior year, n get to eating better before i go off to college ^-^

So, hello every one. I am new.. Er, so hi? I've been looking for a good site for healthy Japanese recipes and this was the best one I've found. (Everything else more or less didn't provide enough information, and that aside, I haven't really found one that had you get active with it. In this case here, the forms.)

Hi, I'm a single mother of a 5 month old girl. I've known about bento for awhile but was never really interested in making them but the more I thought about it, the more fun it sounded like.

Hi Everyone Im Vikx! "stands up waves sits down* Just got in to Bento and really want to take it on! Hi to you all and hope this will be an great and informative place for me to find out more about Bento!

Hi, I love a lot of things about japan, and i have always wanted to learn how to make bentos for myself. I feel that it can help me get rid of the unwanted pounds, and it looks fun too. Well, hello to all again, and I love the site
