SO what's for lunch? - Page 3

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!

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

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.

Little Debbie peanut butter chocolate waffle bars for dessert.

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)

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.

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 Mañana'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.
