Today's lunch? 2 4-cheese lean pockets.

Yay?

Unseasonably cool here in Texas... We were around 100+ F (40+ C) last week and it's 20 degrees (5 degrees) cooler today, with rain. We'll get our freezing in about 4 months. Hope we don't get dumped with snow.

I usually eat lean pockets after microwaving them and letting them sit for 3 minutes. I can also eat alphabet soup straight out of the can, if I have to. I learned how to scarf down nutrition when I was a teacher. Comes in handy when I'm on one of those calls that you think will have a break in it, but never does for the next 14 hours.

I'm at home today, so I have fresh-baked bread. Yummy.

I eat lunch at my desk every day.  make the office smell my great food.
weekend I usually make a huge meal, enough to feed like 8,
then dole out into individual serving containers, and throw in the freezer,
take 'em out the night before, for lunch the next day.

Today my selection is medallions of brined smoked pork loin, I used mix of cherry and oak when smoking,
on a bed of spanish rice and a side of baked beans in an asian style sauce. 

BBQ all the way baby :P

I think Cisco is supposed to come out tomorrow to see us, so I may likely enjoy a vendor lunch at a nice sit-down kind of place.

We got one vendor, though, who's obsessed with Taco Casa... true, he's offering a lunch out of his own pocket and not on a company dime, but... he's hitting that Taco Casa EVERY TIME he comes to town! I think that's a bit... obsessive...

:o

I actually rarely take my lunch to work because I hate eating at work lol. I like getting out of the office for an hour or so, stretch my legs, and not be bothered while eating by "Bill" from accounting with his story about his last doctor visit.

Lunch today consists of grilled salmon with some kind of mixed salad I pulled out the bag and stuffed into the tupperware.

Usually on Fridays we round up people and go to a pub for lunch and a beer. We only take around an hour, sometimes a bit longer if it's busy. But that's a complete contrast to most other companies here who usually don't work at all on Friday afternoons. And if they're technically inside the office building then 4pm is the tools down / go drink the beer in the kitchen. :)

Got some Thai food today.

Not at my desk.

Those lean pockets can freeze for at least one more day.

Went out for Sushi

Sushi Box Lunch Special - Miso soup and 3 rolls - $12

I love sashimi and katsu chicken curry, although not usually together

Just got back from this place - http://www.foodnetwork.com/shows/american-diner-revival/200-series/one-stop-truck-stop.html

Go there at least once a week. This is also where we suggest when vendors take us to lunch. The food is awesome (and was before they were on TV).

Home today for lunch... probably won't have anything brilliant, but it won't be hot pockets.
