Usagi, the Japanese word for rabbit, is both a favorite animal of mine as well as the year I was born, according to the paper place mats found in Chinese restaurants. As such, I'm drawn to bento boxes featuring the cute little buggers, this red usagi decorated box being my absolute favorite and the one I use the most often. It's a single tier (I've found I prefer those) side snap case that's supposed to be waterproof, but I don't carry watery items, so I don't really know if that's the case. It comes with dividing containers and a cute little barrel rice press, but I don't use those often. I love that it's quite roomy but not so that I have to worry about overfilling.
Here it is holding two onigiri and a few pieces of green tea and Flower Kiss candies. One of the onigiri is filled with a tuna/mayo/wasabi combo. The other has a pitted umeboshi. The onigiri wraps are a favorite way of preparing a quick lunch, but I'll discuss those more in a later post.

| The tuna onigiri for me; the umeboshi version is for a vegetarian friend at work. Candies for the both of us. |
Here it is another day with a delicious salad.
