Hello my name is Kristy and I'm a bento addict...
I love bento boxes. I can't help it I'm a foodie.
I am a full time student who is about to graduate from a small Buddhist inspired university in Boulder, CO. I am hoping to get into grad school at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland for Ecological Economics. I am an avid vegetarian cook who strongly believes in self-sufficiency, the re-localization revolution, growing her own food, and experimenting with making food from scratch. I was lucky enough several summers ago to work on a 10 acre farm and grow all my own food. I lost quite a bit of weight through bentos and hard labor (not to mention the dense nutrition in local foods). Over the last couple of years I've gained some of it back and would like to use this site to track my journey of weight loss.
I absolutely adore the written word, going on hikes, snowshoeing, and taking care of my Portuguese water dog, Doodle Bug! Science fiction and fantasy are very dear to me. The pursuit of a contemplative education has been paramount in shaping my morals, values, habits, words, and actions over the years. I am also starting to practice Ikebana. I also adore lolita fashion and would like to expand my collection (it's really expensive -_- ).
I would eventually like to publish my own vegetarian bento book. It seems like this niche market has not yet been explored fully and I would love to bring my tasty (inspired) recipes to excited bento enthusiasts! This site will be under construction for sometime and I would love any feedback on making it better, more comprehensive, and more enjoyable for the viewer. Please contact me if you have any questions or recipes you would like me to try!
