First Day of Summer Sun Bento

Today is Summer Solstice, also known as Midsummer, also known as Litha
and I made a Sun bento to celebrate the first day of Summer.
:)
 I had the perfect foods for this bento. The Butternut Squash Souffle was the perfect size, shape, and color to make the sun, and I had some Yellow Pepper in the refrigerator that I sliced to make the sun rays.
  • Sun (Butternut Squash Souffle)
  • Sun Rays (Yellow Pepper)
  • Mr. Sun's Face (Plum Amazins and Rosemary)
  • Small Tomatoes
  • Cherries
  • Fresh Baby Spinach

Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun, Please Shine Down On Me!

This was a delicious and healthy lunch, and it put a smile on my face. Now if only we weren't having a heat wave, then I could have enjoyed it outside instead of stuck in the house with the AC on...
Happy First Day of Summer!

  1. So pretty! Didn't get a chance to show Leslie this one, but I'm sure she'd have loved it, too! Such a cute, happy sun! And I remember that song! ...Oops... Now I'm singing it in my head. ....AAAAUGH! ;-P
    ...I also caved and put the A/C on for the first time just now. Managed with just fan during the day, but it's HOT in here. Definitely time to cool things off.
