Hi friends! Today's springy bento featured wholegrain toast topped with goat cheese and smoked salmon (with a small flourish of fennel frond), resting on a bed of tender mache, with accents of edible violets and golden baby tomato. A mustardy Dijon dressing was poured over after I snapped this pic. Below, my magewappa box with floral elastic band and tender pink tulips:
Had a lovely outing to Tachibana yesterday with Jamison and a dear friend (hello, L.!)...it is our favorite spot for Japanese food, where sushi is always ravishingly fresh and meticulously made. A selection including sea urchin, fish egg with quail egg, plum/ume roll, shrimp tempura roll, and my utter addiction, the spicy scallop roll (front):
Gorgeous spring day--luminous and cool-bright! Cherry blossoms against bright blue sky:
I adore the amazing electric yellow-green of new leaves emerging...
Our dogwood at peak bloom, covered in voluptuous yet delicate white flowers:
Have a wonderful week ahead!

Hi sweet Lynds! I had not used this magewappa for a while, taking it out of the cupboard was like seeing an old friend again...found the elastic strap in a bargain priced Japanese shop in San Fran--will send you one when I'm out there!
