March 3 is Hinamatsuri, or Girls' Day in Japan. It's one of my favorite special holidays to commemorate in bento. I've made
many,
many,
many Girls' Day bento in the past few years. This year Pucca stars in her own bento for the occasion, wearing bell pepper kimono and holding a radish fan. She
appeared in a Santa suit for a Christmas bento a few years ago; she's so festive, that girl!
I missed making bento these past few months. MisterMan has been packing bento for himself and his sister so I have been taking a break from posting too. I want to keep up my bento chops though, so I will make sure to not be so remiss in the future.
Wishing our girls - and all our children - a healthy and happy year ahead. May their future be as bright as their smiles๐๐ซ๐ป
