No frills no-nut and banana sandwich bento. Super fast and although I’m not a huge fan of the Trader Joes cheese crackers, it’s fast and easy to throw in a lunch. 🙂 #bento #sneakychefnonutbutter #tootiredforfancy

I’m definitely more active on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook than I am on my blog.  But I refuse to let my blog go.  I have thoughts of writing to my blog again, but what always stops me is time.  

Time… something we all wish we had more of.  🙂

A little bit of history on what I’ve been up to.  About two years ago, my best friend passed away and it changed my world forever.  I was there when she passed and feel extremely blessed that I was a part of that moment.  Her passing changed the way I view the world in more ways than I can explain.  Since her passing, I’ve been trying to embrace the relationships in my life.  After a life changing moment, some will travel more, or try new things.  For me, I’ve embraced the simple moments and have looked towards my relationships as ones that I cannot take for granted.  I know there are times in the day or week that it may seem that I don’t treasure the relationships that I have (family, friends, colleagues, etc.) but in truth, there are many moments where I give a silent prayer to God for gracing me with a wonderful life.  I may not have immense material wealth, I may wish for a bigger home or ability to travel freely without thinking of how much it costs, but in the end… I’m blessed.  I’m truly, and utterly blessed.  

I’ve also been really busy with work and my family.  My bentos were born as a way to show my love to my kids, and continue to be so.  But life gets hectic, work gets crazy, after-school activities are endless (or so it seems), so my bentos and blogging have gone to the side.  Sorry.

I have thoughts in my head to pick up this blog again.  Please know that I am thinking about it.  Perhaps this blog will morph into something else.  Who knows.  Until then, please find me on Twitter or Instagram.  

With immense gratitude for visiting,

Ms. Kimmie
