A snacky kind of lunch

October 20, 2009

I keep saying now that tax season is over it’s time to get back on the weight-loss wagon.  Although this lunch may not look 100% healthy, it’s probably a lot better than what I had been eating the past few weeks.  Baby steps! Oh and yes this is yet another new bento box.  It’s a [...]

Rice made nice

October 4, 2009

I’m making this quick because I had a LONG day today. I had to actually come into the office today. On a Sunday. And I worked yesterday too. But I’m so glad I did or else I would have been really behind on Monday, with the October 15th deadline looming. Anyway, I was very tired [...]

A bento break-through!

September 27, 2009

Well well well, we do seem to keep bumping into each other on Sunday nights!  After all that rain and cloudiness, today was just beautiful.  It was sunny, breezy, and warm.  I got to enjoy some of the lovely weather while running my grocery errands and hope there’s more of this weather to come! Anyway, [...]

Big weekend!

September 20, 2009

This weekend had some important things going on, but of course we put our laid-back spin on things.  Mr. Spice and I had our 5th wedding anniversary on Friday.  We are going to celebrate it later on since we were both busy – me with work and he was busy organizing the Atlanta LinuxFest that [...]

Coming up for air

September 13, 2009

I told you I wouldn’t be posting much these days . . . Work has been insanely crazy busy.  Not to bore you too much with tax talk, but in the spring tax season most returns ended up getting extensions filed for 6 months and that’s how I end up being swamped in the spring [...]

April 19, 2009

Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve done a bento post! I’m hoping to get back into it so hopefully you’ll see more of these! Let’s see what I packed for tomorrow at the office . . . The left container has 4 of the mini frittatas I posted about earlier. When I said mini, [...]

A long delinquent lunch post!

March 3, 2009

After seeing all the yummy oatmeal combos people keep posting, I was inspired to do one this morning. Last night I took oatmeal, vanilla almond milk, cherry Craisins, and some slivered almonds and put it in the fridge to soak overnight. This morning after yoga, I heated it up and proceeded to add some brown [...]

First bento of 2009!

It has been wayyy too long since I’ve done a bento! I packed some yummy leftovers from yesterday’s New Year’s lunch — can’t wait to eat! Left: whole wheat mini-pita on bottom, tossed salad of green leaf lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion slices. Right: chicken seekh kabab, potato samosa, red onion slices and lime wedge

Lunch!

November 2, 2008

Just can’t think of a cute title today. Might have to resort to something boring like dates. Cooked up a storm with a friend this weekend, then cooked a little more today. I’ll post pics from Saturday night later. For lunch tomorrow — starting on the left is a green bean and potato dish from [...]

Doctored-up leftovers

October 30, 2008

No funky photo formatting today, I promise! It’s been hard getting my motivation back to start making dinner each night. Flipping through my cookbooks and exclaiming “oooh! This one looks good” is apparently not enough to produce a dish on our table. I must shamefully admit to succumbing to pre-prepared frozen items or having fast [...]
