SO what's for lunch?
 
I'm thinking sushi. yeah,*pausing and looking out the window from the office* sushi.

jinx 10-12-2005 11:20 AM

I had sushi yesterday. Gimme another idea, I'm starving.

Sundae 10-12-2005 11:21 AM

Its what's for dinner in my case.
Probably chicken chilli. And too many beers.

LabRat 10-12-2005 11:21 AM

bored today? :)

Tuna salad on triscuits. I love the new no drain tuna packs.

melidasaur 10-12-2005 11:47 AM

Taco Soup... corn muffin... apple or banana... string cheese... water...

I just kind of eat all day long, so lunch is an all day affair for me.

Trilby 10-12-2005 11:47 AM

spanish peanuts. god, I'm so pathetic.

BUT! I love hearing about your killer lunches! :) :)

cjjulie 10-12-2005 12:22 PM

Campbells tomato soup with ritz crackers crumbled in it, seltzer. I know ugg but it has been raining here forever at least. Makes for a soup day

Undertoad 10-12-2005 12:24 PM

cheese sammich & deer park water.

SteveDallas 10-12-2005 12:37 PM

Frozen chicken chimichanga from Trader Joe's.

Dole fruit cup (mandarin oranges).

Pepsi.

Elspode 10-12-2005 12:49 PM

Turkey, pepperoni and American cheese on tortilla.

Pie 10-12-2005 12:51 PM

We did Pho again. No durian milkshake, though. :shudder:

glatt 10-12-2005 01:14 PM

I brought a ham and cheese sandwich from home. A big fistfull of Rold Gold pretzels from the bag stashed in my bottom desk drawer, and a tall cup of water.

Yummy, fairly healthy, and cheap!

Troubleshooter 10-12-2005 01:19 PM

Shrimp stew over chicken and sausage jambalaya, homemade potato salad, bread pudding with rum sauce and a giant ice tea (hold the ice).

Hate me all you want...

BigV 10-12-2005 01:23 PM

Funny you ask...

I was going to start my own thread on a different subject, but I like the idea of hijacking the pilot's thread instead.

I have been following the conversation in the Fatter than God thread,

Edit: Changed my mind. Thread rerouted to here.

Iggy 10-12-2005 06:13 PM

Special K fruit and yogurt cereal... ymmm

barefoot serpent 10-12-2005 06:15 PM

salad bar at HyVee (le supermarche) -- mostly the 'greens' side and not the 'browns' side.

wolf 10-12-2005 08:56 PM

Sandwich ... 1/2 turkey, 1/2 ham. Small amount of cesar salad. Fruit. Cookies. Grape Soda.

I was at a conference. That's what they served.

Mage 10-12-2005 09:06 PM

Pizza and coffee :coffee:

dar512 10-12-2005 10:23 PM

Today was chili mac. Great day for it too.

Clodfobble 10-12-2005 10:31 PM

A granola bar, a bag of peanut M&M's, and a coke. These were spread out over a 5 hour period or so, but it was all I ate today until dinner. It was a busy day at work and I couldn't leave to go get food.

bluecuracao 10-12-2005 10:49 PM

Ugh, my schedule's all off so I slept through lunch. Had a great dinner though--french dip with gruyere and a romaine salad.

feesh13 10-13-2005 12:10 AM

I had pizza for lunch and dinner.

slang 10-13-2005 12:42 AM

Sausage pizza and an enormous Coke. Sam's club has a great special, 2 LARGE slices of pizza with drink for less than $5.

Cheap-cheap, good-good.

lheene 10-13-2005 01:41 AM

half serving of fettucini alfredo. YUM!!!

Tonchi 10-13-2005 01:47 AM

Four biscotti and a Cherry Diet Coke. Yeah I know, that is absurd and I have no excuse.

Crimson Ghost 10-13-2005 03:14 AM

An Italian sub, 4 slices of pizza, 3 cannolli, a litre of Pepsi, and to top it off, a wafer thin mint. And yet, I manage to keep my weight under 500 pounds.

I googled Spanish Peanuts but the descriptions were rather.... well, dry. Why Spanish Peanuts rather than standard salted peanuts?

Am not a nut fan myself - when on health kicks I tend to eat seeds instead. Oh except I once had a tub of Kick Yo Ass Hot Peanuts. Gave myself stomach ache all over Christmas that year because I couldn't keep my hands off them!

Trilby 10-13-2005 10:31 AM

tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich. A real coke (not diet).

One of my favorite self-pity lunches. I am wallowing in self pity today. You stand warned. :bawling:

melidasaur 10-13-2005 12:08 PM

I ate at the cafeteria in one of the residence halls at Univ. of Illinois today - I felt like an undergrad, but for all you can eat at $2.50, it's a total steal.

I had half a calzone, a piece of honey dijon chicken (which rocked!), brocolli, cottage cheese, a piece of turkey and an M&M cookie. Plus, I took a to-go cup of diet coke back to the office with me. I can eat breakfast at the halls for $1.50 and dinner for $3.50 - I never need to go home again!

plthijinx 10-13-2005 12:21 PM

BBQ sandwich, lays kettle cooked jalapeno chips and ice tea from the deli in the next building over....heartburn city!

Elspode 10-13-2005 12:21 PM

I was ambushed by two unexpectedly spicy frozen burritos which I grabbed out of the freezer this morning. Good, but painful.

plthijinx 02-16-2006 12:35 PM

fresh 1" thick cut ribeye

Spexxvet 02-16-2006 12:44 PM

Leftovers: Mashed cauliflower, diced roast beef, some mayo and mustard, american cheese, all heated up, with crushed town house crackers sprinkled on top. :yum: Little Debbie peanut butter chocolate waffle bars for dessert.

jinx 02-16-2006 12:53 PM

The kids are having "nachos" - chips, refries, goat cheddar and winter squash. I'm having sushi I bought last night at Wholefoods. I also have some sushi leftovers in there from dinner last night (Margaret Kuo's in Frazer - not recommended btw) :thepain3:

plthijinx 02-16-2006 12:58 PM

how long will sushi last in the fridge? i do have some leftover from time to time but i'm always skeptacal about it so i never end up eating it....

jinx 02-16-2006 01:04 PM

For me it has about a 50% chance of being edible the next day. I've never gotten sick from leftovers but often its just not appetizing anymore.

FallenFairy 02-16-2006 01:21 PM

I had an amazing Turkey club wrap with killer spicy sauce (from a place in L'Enfant Plaza in DC)...and a water.

Elspode 02-16-2006 01:24 PM

I spent most my lunch break getting a couple of minor fish tank supplies (for my minor fish tank here on my credenza at work), a new plant and some pots for my existing plants in my office. I spend a hell of a lot of time in this place, and so I am actively trying to make it more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing.

What with the lack of time remaining, I just nabbed a Quik Trip sandwich (prosciutto, pepperoni and provolone on foccacia), a bag of chips, a diet coke and some watermelon flavored pseudo-licorice thingies.

wolf 02-16-2006 01:31 PM

I had a bagel, half with butter and plum jam, the other half with Adams "natural" peanut butter (off brand that I won't be buying again because it was way too oily and lacked peanutty taste, I'm sticking with Crazy Richards from now on).

Tonight, however, I am going out for dinner and will be having Mexican. Los Aztecas in Pottstown (I'd appreciate recommendations for dishes if anyone has been there). A friend of mine is down from Long Island teaching a class and we're getting together tonight.

That is a picture of recently excised fistula. My son had that surgery done a couple of years ago when he developed a pilonital cyst, which caused an anal fistula to form. It was not fun, especially since I was the one who had to do most of the cleaning and redressing twice a day for a month. Furthermore, he subsequently developed infection in the incision site, which later went on to cause him to suffer infected cerebrospinal fluid when he had to have his VP shunt revised a month later.

Not terribly appetizing, either in photo or memory.

I haven't been there but I'd recommend chili rellenos becuase they're so tasty.:yum: I look forward to a review - haven't had good mexican in forever.

wolf 02-16-2006 01:59 PM

The last time I had Mexican, Sycamore, MomSycamore, and I went to Johnny Maņana's in Philadelphia.

I had the big enchi-thingywhatsis and the blue slushy margarita. And complained about the parking.

Everyone was out walking around at lunchtime today in DC. Beautiful day.

I had a blueberry yogurt, a ham and cheese sandwich, and two small brownies, all brought from home. I also had a big cup of water.

plthijinx 02-16-2006 02:16 PM

y'all need to come to Texas for some authentic "Tex-Mex" dishes. i can eat it everyday and not get sick of it. i have a terrible time getting around any beef fajita enchilada dish......

seakdivers 02-16-2006 03:53 PM

I just had a chili boat & a Diet Coke. My stomach is hating me for it.

bluecuracao 02-16-2006 04:25 PM

French dip, again.

Granola Goddess 02-16-2006 04:56 PM

Wolfgang Puck Classic Tomato Soup with Basil which I added some prawns to, and a bottle of POM Wonderful Pomegranate mango juice. Mmmm.

Sundae 02-17-2006 04:22 AM

Lunch today is leftovers from last night - quinoa and vegetable bake. Yumyum. With a Braeburn apple and plain air-popped popcorn.

BrianR 02-17-2006 05:06 AM

Two containers of Dannon strawberry-banana yogurt and a lime iced tea.

My scale tells me I'm up a few pounds more than I should be and since I rarely eat properly on the road, I'm trying to make up for it now.

Try La Tolteca - Rte 202, a couple miles north/west of 95. It was tasty and reasonably priced with good margaritas.

wolf 02-18-2006 12:53 AM

Sounds interesting, but I can't find an exact location ... is it in Delaware or PA?

(A little further searching has located one in West Chester, seems to be in the Parkway shopping center)

La Tolteca is in Delaware, closer to Dupont hospital. Also try Coyote Crossing in West Chester - a little pricey, but good.

Oh yeah, I agree.... although their margarita's are so tasty and strong the food becomes irrelevant pretty quickly.

Not mexican, but anyone been to Krazy Kats down in Delaware? I have a gift certificate but keep forgetting to plan to go.

La Tolteca also has a location in West Chester next to the Parkway Plaza, right where High Street ends and runs into the bend in Rte 202.

I ate at the Delaware location about 6 years ago, and it was pretty good.

There was also a Mexican restaurant in Delaware down Rte 13 whose name I can't remember. They had a mariachi band on some evenings.

Kozmique 02-18-2006 09:12 PM

Vegetarian chili from Mäni's Bakery.

Trilby 02-24-2006 12:10 PM
