Thanks Stephanie! I like its cheerful, translucent circles of spring-y color ^^!
Jenn, I really like it's simplicity. How do you always have such beautiful blossoms to add to your bentos? I am waiting for my plumeria to bloom! :D
Hi there Lyndsey! ~thank you :D
I do love flowers, huh! Found the garlic blossoms at my local Asian supermarket and plucked the vinca and forsythia from the yard--they are such bright late winter/early spring stalwarts.
Hope all is well with you, will enjoy the plumeria pics to come!
Such a beautiful arrangement! This bento gets me so excited for spring!
Pretty and sweet. I'm smiling..
So lovely and delicious looking!

Simply stunning! Looks cheerful and delicious! I've been so wanting to get a couple of those lunch containers.
Hello Azita, so kind of you! Would love to see bentos you'd create! May your weekend be full of the colors and scents of spring renewal...
Your cheery water colors and vibrant blossoms are brightening up my very cold and grey day, bits of snow on the mountains on this coast. Beautiful warm combination of the ginger and savory sesame contrast the sweetness of the prawns! NOM! Another winning bento Jenn!
That looks delicious! I'm curious about these garlic blossoms...are you growing your own garlic or can you find this in a grocery? and what do garlic blossoms taste like?
Hi Robin! Wow, what a lovely description this is! Your eloquence and writing talents are really special :D
Hope that late-winter snow is melting away and that bright flowers will overtake it soon...
Hi Carol! Thanks so much :D I found the garlic blossoms at a large Korean/Asian supermarket nearby; they have a wonderful zingy but subtle shallot-garlic taste. I wonder if Chinatown might be a source in the NY area?
