Bento #9

Let's talk summer Bento

*Serious Face*


Just a simple little Moroccan feast today
Stuffed peppers, spicy couscous
and green salad with pea shoots.
Casual.


Did I stuff my own peppers?
Errr...no.
Why would I want to do that?


Goats cheese.
Cranberry toasts.
*yawn, yawn*
"Same old, same old" I hear you cry.
!!surprise!!
home grown thyme!
Bet you weren't expecting that!


Ripe nectarine with raspberries.
And purple viola.
What???
Doesn't everyone
have flowers
in their lunchbox?
I'm shocked.


Food safety is important during the summer.
I have a fridge in my office
but if you don't you should read this post.

Me - I'm holding off on the fresh seabass ceviche
until it cools down again.

*****

I'm eating this with MissM...
she is advising me what to wear tomorrow
to a poetry book launch in Acton.

I don't even know where Acton is.

    1. Thank you! I am afraid that at 1pm I was starving and it became performance art.

    Love the Bento, so creative.

    I got married in Acton, once and the second time in Uxbridge...

    2. It turns out that Acton is between Kew and Willesden. And I already know where Uxbridge is. I can almost do the whole A to Z.
