Hubby says I'm getting obsessive

Whatever does he mean? Seriously, does this look obsessed to you?...
It's not like I just ordered some egg molds and picks and another bento box with matching bag and water bag...um...ok maybe I did.
And maybe some of my stuff is still at the babysitters. And maybe that doesn't show hubby's sectioned plate for his lunches. And maybe I did go hog wild a bit at the disney store, but in my defense they were just so stinking cheap and cute! And I HAD to order the latest one because I needed one more grown up appropriate for ME to take to work.

Yes. Yes, it does. I've been meaning to speak with you about this, and warn you you're in dangerous territory with that GINORMOUS collection.
I mean, that is so excessive. .... not.
{I am calculating the space requirements of what I had on hand, what I just recently bought, and what I plan to get and... we will have to move out to make room. That's reasonable, right? Right?}
You know, I do have this friend that moved into the house across the street from her without selling the original house. She uses the first one as an attic. This seems like a perfectly reasonable method of storage for the bento stash to me.
haha really?!? that's awesome!
It's a hobby just like anything else! Just tell him "at least you get to eat the results. Imagine if I were into snake charming."

At least it's a healthy obsession. Mental health counseling could cost 80 dollars an hour.

You are NOT alone :) I've tried to limit myself to 2 totes for everything - now I am using boxes as decor! Not to hide them, of course...
