Re: Lunchtime Choices
 
not a lot. I forgot to put the turkey on 3 hours ago so tonights 2nd Christmas dinner is deferred until another day. :(

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 
Leftover chicken curry and rice with Frank's hot ginger sauce. It's cold outside and snowing and the wind is howling, so this is a nice lunch for today.

Microwaved the meat and beans from last night and heated up some tortillas and Tacos 2.0 is even better than it was last night. I'm very happy right now.

My team leader gave me one of her Starbuck's breakfast sandwiches, (ham, cheese, and egg on an English muffin). Sometimes she'll buy 2 sandwiches and only eat one, and she won't eat the other one later. Since I'll have to work through lunch today it's appreciated.

Re: Lunchtime Choices
 
Baby spinach spring mix, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, broccoli, carrots, green olives, pumpkin seeds and 3 oz of chicken breast with a homemade sesame dressing. A glass of water. I'm ready for the gym :)

I've been getting fed at work! Yesterday pizza and Caesar salad from Houston Pizza and today I got the same as the band last night (they left the unopened packets on ice in the beer chest); pita bread, hummus, shaved smoked turkey, cheddar cheese slices, and a can of Steam Whistle beer. I also inherited a half bottle of Jameson from them. Oh, the things I do for the non-profit arts sector!

Bloody hell what happened to the days when the band requests were 2 Cases of Jack, 10 case of Bud, unlimited Big Macs, and the phone no of the local dealer plus as many chicks with big knockers that would fit in the dressing room? The music business has gone crazy, no wonder Keith Richard has given up smoking! https://globalnews.ca/news/6521450/k...quits-smoking/

Brunch really:
Bowl of bran. I got up rather late or is it that I got up three times. Once at 3am thanks to a hooner car thumping away . Once at 5am which I deemed too early and once overslept.
Oh well. Tiz Sunday.

When you find help, please send it. If the help arrives with a cheeseboard that would be good too.

I've been there.
What I had was relatively easy too since the stew came out of a carton in the freezing compartment.

My stomach would think its throat had been cut with only one meal a day.

Yes.
Two half meals is better than one.
Mind you two whole meals plus extras is far better.
