On the left side are cucumber slices with hummus and strawberries.
On the right are little deli rolls of ham and provolone cheese in front, with Goldfish crackers in the back. A little silicone barran keeps the crunchy things separate from the moist things. :)
Happy Friday everyone!

Hello. Can I ask -- where do you get the cute little seperators and toothpic/teddy fork?
Adorable and delicious looking lunch! I love the little silicone baran, I need to get some of those!
A silicone barran? Yikes! These bento people have thought of everything!
Hello Caroline Alexander! :) The little teddy fork was one of the first sets of bento forks I got, I got the little set from ebay. I believe that particular set was called Click Clack and there were about 8 in the package. If you are interested in shopping for them on ebay the term "bento fork" or "bento picks" will turn up a lot of results.
There used to be an online Japanese dollar store that sold a lot of bento gear for very cheap (everything was $1.50!!). That is where I ordered the silicone barran from (three pieces in a set). Sadly, their online store closed. They do have some real stores located in northern CA if you happen to live in that area!
Otherwise, there are some slim pickings on Amazon, a lot on ebay. And necessity is always the mother of invention...when I first started doing bento I used picks I found at a cake decorating store, tupperware boxes, and I'd use small pieces of waxed paper to divide items.
