Belated TRH 3rd Anniversary Giveaway!

I had a month long TRH Anniversary giveaway in September, and I had one more giveaway planned, then my health issue got in the way. So, this is kind of random, but here is the last item for my 3rd Anniversary giveaway...


Japanese bento box and a carrying pouch. I wanted to do something that would reflect my blog and things that I’ve posted about. Then I remember many of you wanted to know where you can purchase a bento box like mine... But a bento box is a little boring. So, I decided to make a carrying pouch to go with it. Do you like the fabric? Seriously, it took me such a long time to decide on which fabric combination to go with.


I have the exact same bento box and I love it. I love how the divider can come off and that I can use it in different ways.



I posted about my Japanese style bento here and here, but you can certainly put in anything you want. How about some crackers, grapes, and some cute sandwiches? The possibilities are endless and I think you will have fun!

Here is how to enter:

1. Usual comment is fine, but can you tell me what you would put in to the bento box? I think that will be fun for everyone to read and get some ideas. :) (1st entry)

2. Become a follower of Tea Rose Home. (2nd entry)

3. Facebook, Tweet, or blog about the giveaway. (3rd entry)

That's it! I will run the giveaway until midnight of the 9th and post the winner on the 10th. Good luck!

    I have been wondering what bento was! Thank you for your posts about it. I would carry my between meal protein snacks in the box to keep my blood sugar up when out and about.

    I love that bento box and have been wanting one for a long while! I've been inspired by some fabulous bento lunches lately for kids, so I would use this for my daughter and become a bento lunch supermom!

    Thanks for the giveaway - glad you're on the mend!

    I just moved to Japan to teach English, so I don't want the bento for me but my sister back home. She loves making bento! I hope she might make my newly discovered snack. Seasoned nori wrapped around a small slice of soft cheese! This cute little obasan who runs a karaoke bar nearby serves them. Soooo tasty!

    OK, first I must say this is a fabulous giveaway!
    Secondly, I am in love with the fabric and that sweet pouch makes the giveaway even more desirable. The bento box is going to be used for cheese and potato sandwiches, followed by some sour cherry (homemade) cookies and a sliced apple.
    Thank you!

I would love to have a bento box and it's not super interesting but this would come in very handy to put my sons food in for when we are going out or even here at home! Of course I could always pack snacks too....raisins, grapes, cheeses, etc.

  23. JanelleNovember 7, 2011 at 6:35 AM

    I love the colors you picked out for the carrying bag :)

    If I won the bento I would pack my husband's lunch in it. The first lunch would probably consist of cheese, crackers, salami, and grapes. I would have fun using a little heart cookie cutter to make a few cheese hearts to put on top of the salami. I wouldn't cut all of the cheese into hearts in case hacing cheese hearts is a little embarassing at work haha. He could quickly eat the evidence of my love :D

    Love this! It's so tricky to come up with ways to "section off" parts of a meal with traditional American lunch boxes and tupperware, so I love the idea of a bento box! Lately we've been on an Italian food kick wi my husband taking leftovers for lunch...this would be so much better than all the little ziplock bags I have to use for the main course, salad, etc. Great giveaway, and happy birthday TRH!

    eee! I love bentos. My boyfriend is japanese and his mom sent me two itty bitty kids ones for me. They are totally adorable. However, they don't really fit anything in them that is lunch like (they are long and skinny in addition to being small). I've packed snack-y lunches in them like baby carrots, but they aren't well suited for adults. I'd probably put rice and egg and/or whatever leftover veggies I have, because I'm boring. But at least I could be cute but boring.

    I love the fabric you picked! I would use the bento box for lunch. I graze at work most of the day and would probably use the box for veggie sticks, hummus, fruit, almond butter and crackers/pretzels. Thanks for a fun giveaway!

    I currently attempt to make myself a bento style lunch but have 4 separate boxes that rumble around the bottom of my work bag(which surprisingly is made of the same fabric as this bag). I love to regime these.xxx

    I would start by filling the largest of the top sections with slices of smoked tuna, then into the two smaller sections would be placed some grated mild fat reduced cheese and a little portion of tartar sauce. Then into the lower sections would go just perfectly, two slices of fresh bread. My dear husband's lunch is made. The Bento box would be placed carefully into the beautiful drawstring bag along with a juicy navel orange and a sweet and crisp Fuji apple. Now I will draw up the strings and hand it to my darling along with a hug and a kiss and wave at the door as he drives off for another day at the office. Thank-you Sachiko!!!and Happy 3rd year anniversary and many, many more!
