ere is M.'s bento all boxed up and ready to go. I didn't show the inside because I had a bad bento morning. I started out thinking I would cook a sweet potato in the microwave to include, but forgot how awful the texture is when you do that until after it was done. On to the butternut squash, which I cubed successfully (thanks to a diagram in Bon Appetit showing how to peel it safely) but then overcooked into mush. To top it all off, it is packed far too loosely because I needed a box sized in between what I actually had.

Ah, well. It has candy inside so I know M. will like that. Hope I have better luck next time!
