Bento at the Beach

First day of spring. It was an absolutely gorgeous day today 83°F bright blue skies, sunny. I luckily spent most of the day outside. Started at the Farmer's Market. It was berry heaven. Bought some strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. I also got the usual suspects onions, peppers, garlic, leeks, cauliflower, avocados, and some apples. I was happy to see a farmer I hadn't seen in awhile. I was getting worried. He and his wife set up every Saturday and then suddenly they were gone for weeks. Thankfully they are back and all is well.

I dropped the haul home, packed up my super cool bento box and took off toward the beach. I love to walk on the sand. I have flabby calf muscles (think Jello Jigglers) and a few miles on the sand gives them a way better workout then pavement and well you can't beat the view of the hot surfers crashing waves...

At about the halfway mark I found a flat rock, plopped down, ate my yummy protein packed picnic
