Lily of the Valley is my favorite flower. I love the shape and smell. I am also reminded of my Grandmother’s garden in the house she had when I was a kid. That house and garden holds magical memories for me. I have a memory of fresh cut Lily of the Valley in a small juice glass on a counter in the kitchen. The memories are probably more special because that house and garden no longer exist. When I was about 11 my Grandparents sold that house. A contractor bought it, destroyed the house and garden and built apartments.

The design elements are very evident in this Bento – good color contrast too plus I bet it all was delicious. I also love Lilly of the Valley flowers. Grandmother memories are so wonderful at times.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Mary Lee!
This is such a beautifully-formed work of art. That it is edible is the plus! The house where I grew up is gone, now, along with my mother’s gardens. In my memory, the flowers are all blooming (an impossibility, as daffs and salvia and azaleas are not the same -season bloomers), and it is perpetually beautiful. Thank you for stirring those memories.
Thank you so much! I loved reading about your beautiful memory.
Beautiful bento! I love the bamboo. It adds such an organic feel to the whole thing. I love your tribute to your gradmother, too.
Thank you so much Rebecca!
You’re welcome, Mtetar
I would feel out of this world if I open my lunch box and finds this. It is a pleasant Spring treat for the eyes! The memories linked with the flowers make this a special lunch box. Keep going!
Thank you so much!
My Grandma had it in her garden too. I love it!
