• Personally speaking….

    While taking three classes this semester to finish my master's degree, my time to post is smaller than usual. I hope to post at least once a week though about things that matter to me -- a single young woman in Hampton Roads, VA.

Laptop Lunch #7

Yes. It’s been a while, but the leftovers inspired me to pull down the laptop lunch container. Clockwise, starting from top left: chopped up organic carrot, chickpea cutlets, sautéed collards, and spring salad greens. All items are vegan. I microwaved the cutlets and collards for about 1 1/2 minutes without a cover — just wanted [...]

Laptop Lunch #6

Wow. Number 6 already? I found a tin of miniature letter cutters and got a little silly with my Laughing Cow babybel.

Clockwise, starting at the top left: Fat-free cottage cheese with bits of oranges and cantaloupe in it. A pile of plum and orange slices. Next is a Laughing Cow Light Babybel on top of [...]

Laptop Lunch #5

I was really looking forward to this one! The shrimp were thawed the night before and nestled in there. I didn’t add anything and ate them cold. I don’t like cocktail sauce. The grapes and cherries were singing their swan songs. Spinach, carrots and light Greek dressing are the bomb diggity.
And I got a [...]

Laptop Lunch #4

The fourth in a series of laptop lunches uses up leftovers and some fruit. Very quick to put together and tasty!

Laptop Lunch #3

Big ol’ picture of a laptop lunch with descriptions of what went in it, what worked and what didn’t.

Laptop Lunch #2

Leftover homemade chicken fried rice (brown rice), cherries, grapes, carrots, celery and Laughing Cow light wedge. Tried to be mostly WW Core but the cheese isn’t.
Didn’t finish the carrots. Not a fan.

In case you’re curious how I transport my laptop lunch, here it is. Some use the insulated bag that they sell, and some just [...]

Thursday’s food journal and toy

Didn’t realize it but I did the laptop lunch entry in a different format. Not sure which is better.
Food Lion is giving away one free reusable shopping bag with two purchases of Food Lion brand cereal. I usually buy their Toasted Oats, so that was win-win for me! Normally, the bags cost 89c. The Food [...]

Laptop Lunch #1

Do I include the laptop lunch as part of my food journal or do I do it on its own? Not sure so I’ll try on its own for now so that I can find them more easily (and in case other folks are looking for them too). But I’ll have a picture on the [...]

Guess what came today?

It came in a plastic resealable bag. I was surprised that there are ridges on the bottom shaped like the containers. It’ll make it easier to pack, I’m sure, but sometimes I see people fill half the container with something. Maybe it was a different container. I’ll have to find the photos again. The utensils [...]
