Day 23-Flower Garden Bento

Today it is all about what the Peanut wants and the Peanut has only two requests: flowers and avocado. Peanut loves avocado! To keep the avocado from browning we sprinkle with Crystal Lite Lemonade (pears get soaked in this). Slice this with some of that apple smoked gouda, chedder cheese, ham, peeled pear, and kiwi and the Peanut gets to work with cutting and sneaking tastes when I am not looking. The base is sushi rice which I make in one of my  favorite kitchen appliances of all time: My Black and Decker 3-cup rice cooker (http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-RC3303-3-Cup-Cooker/dp/B002CVTT52). Served with celery sticks and black olives (I buy by the can and keep in tupperware for a week or so to use for lunches, snacks and dinners, or freeze in batches in ziploc bags). Little container holds low sodium soy sauce to season the rice with. Peanut loved filling this guy up using a little suction straw deal.
