Wendolonia - Bento Box Lunches

Wendy Copley is one of the many creative Moms I enjoy conversations with on Twitter. Her website Wendolonia first came to my attention when she shared about her son's lunches. Here's a picture of one of them.

You see Wendy packs these amazing Bento Box lunches. I wasn't really aware of Bento before I saw it on her site. I've been looking for Bento supplies as I think this creative and attractive way of packing food would make it more fun to eat... and Ethan has trouble eating his school lunches in the small amount of time allowed. He also has trouble opening commercial packaging so this would be a great way to go. The site has also helped me get some new ideas for fresh and healthy things to put in a lunch box. Here is a link to Bento Box Posts on Wendy's site. Oh wow I missed her Lunch Box Ideas post the first time around, this is a great list of things to consider. Today Wendy added a great FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) page about Bentos http://wendolonia.com/blog/bento-box-faq/

Update: December 12, 2009 Wendy was mentioned in the Jan 2010 issue of Parents on page 23 her blog was sited as an example of setting a daily challenge for yourself.
