Bento and Cape

I spend a lot of time packing lunches and I am finding that these PlanetBox containers really simplify things for me. Plus I love that they are free of plastic and my kids are really into eating their lunches out of them, and they report that friends are really interested to see what they have for lunch each day.

Below is what my six year old wanted for lunch...

About a week ago I cast on for the #3Lace Capelet from Vogue Knitting Spring/Summer 2010 in Louisa Harding Grace Silk & Wool. As usual I am getting tighter than gauge, and for some reason I didn't go up a needle size, and I am hoping I don't regret that decision too much. I plan to block the heck out of it and hope for the best.
