Hello again, blog-o-sphere!

Is anyone still checking here? If so, thanks! To you, the faithful (optimistic) few, I write this, my first blog entry in well over 2 months. (Yikes!)

Where have I been, you wonder. And rightly so.

Well, let's see... first my husband "popped" his Achilles tendon while playing soccer. So that kinda changed our plans for the summer. While he was having surgery, my parents were in Africa for three weeks, and I was at their house taking care of my brother (who has microcephaly). So, very little baking or bento making happening.

Then I got the gardening bug and "played in the dirt" for about two weeks. The yard debris bin didn't know what hit it!

Then I started noticing that the inside of my house could use some attention. I found Fly Lady and have been flitting around throwing out clutter and cleaning up grime ever since.

Who has time for the computer!?

But, in anticipation of the coming school year -- I thought I better get back on the blogging bandwagon. And I actually bought a couple of bento containers last week. (More on that later.)

Hope your summer has been as productive and fulfilling as mine has been. And, thanks for reading!
