I should never try to post blogs at 3 AM, because I omitted an important detail for the Menu For Hope prize description (which I've edited now). Any bento box featured up until the December 21st deadline as Bento Of The Week can be selected as your prize, even if the retail price goes over the limit. So if you fell in love with that gorgeous handcarved box that was featured last week, you can enter for a chance to win it!

Just Bento is happy to announce that we're donating a prize for Menu For Hope, now in its 4th year. Menu for Hope is an annual charity event contributed to by food bloggers around the world. It was instigated by Pim of Chez Pim, and this year's regional European host is Fanny of foodbeam.

Menu For Hope IV will benefit the United Nations World Food Programme; this year's donations have been earmarked for the school lunch programme in Lesotho, Africa.

We're calling our prize: The Bento Maker's Dream Package!

If you are a Twitter user, I've started to post site updates and short bento or food related things there. I'll try to update, er I mean tweet, at least several times a week, or whenever an idea strikes me that's too short perhaps for a full post.

Update: I've divided my Twittering to two accounts. The @justbento has site updates for both Just Bento and Just Hungry, plus bento-related tweets occasionally, while @makiwi is where I tweet about whatever is on my mind, at random. So, follow one, or both if you dare!
