For this year, the full bloom of the Sakura was 10 days earlier than normal .
So during 10 days holidays in Singapore I thought that I would miss lovely Sakura . Fortunately most Sakura was waiting for me but I had no chance of admiring Sakura with my Bento lunch boxes. Luckily for me , I was able to prepare vegetarian (Macrobiotics) Bento for my Singapore friends at our house to show them our Japanese culture.It was a lots of fun!
I prepared Orchids ,Singapore national flowers instead of Sakura .

All of them looked very happy with healthy home made Bento. One of my frineds who corrects my English script for my blog gave me a compliment which follows below.
I enjoyed the bento lunch.It was truly a good experience.Firstly,I liked the cute bento boxes.The wrapping gave me the feeling of opening a present.The bento box looks small but my stomach was full as there were ample vegetables.A healthy home made bento!
