I have eaten this exact same salad for the last 7 days. I am consistent like that.
A few weeks ago I realized that it had been a long time since I had eaten lunch. Sure, I put food in my mouth, but I was always standing and it was an after thought in between caring for little mouths. I decided I needed to take a few minutes each day to actually sit down and eat.
Back in college I created this salad.
Lettuce
Turkey (Shaved)
Carrots
Croutons
Catalina Salad Dressing
I loved it. I would eat it every day. I think I am a creature of habit.
Last week when I committed to doing a better job with lunch, I knew exactly what I was going to eat.
It has made a huge difference in my day. Instead of standing behind the counter while our daughter eats, I make this salad, and sit down right next to her. We laugh and talk and sing. Lately we have talked a lot about when she gets to start school, and about the upcoming summer swim season.
Lunch is now one of my favorite times of day.
Yum-O!
Consider yourself warned. It is addicting.
Do you eat lunch, sitting down or stand up?
What did you eat this week?
Next Week's Challenge (March 14) - "Favorite Color"
I get on food jags like that as well. Lunch is my favorite meal because it is just for me. No one else is usually around then. Yesterday I had leftovers from the Japanese restaurant we went to for my son's birthday. Lots of times it is leftovers. Today it probably will be a "california burger."
ReplyDeleteFun! I am predictably consistent with my meals. I will upload my picture now so you can see. I am usually home alone these days for lunch. I always eat sitting down and love to have hot meals at lunch when I can. Salads are a great standby for me as well.
ReplyDeleteI am a huge fan of shaved turkey. I can't eat it any other way. Never thought of adding Catalina dressing. I'm usually a balsamic kind of girl! But I'll try it.
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I have been having lots of problems living together, he never gives me attention or makes me happy because he has fallen in love with another woman outside our marriage. I tried my best to make sure that my husband leaves this woman but the more I talk to him about it the more he makes me feel sad and unhappy, My marriage started leading to divorce because he no longer gives me attention. I wanted to forget him but i love him and didn't want to lose him. We have been married for years and he is all I could call a true best friend and best in all, the man that handles my problems perfectly, the man that makes sacrifices for ,my happiness. I wanted him back in my life badly and I was so confused. My Friends told me to buy books about relationships, so I went online for relationship books while I came across a spell caster called Dr Emu. I read testimonies and reviews about him so I contacted him immediately, explained my problems to him. Same day , he casted a spell for me and assured me for 2 days that my husband will return to me and to my greatest surprise the third day my husband came knocking on my door and begged for forgiveness. I am so happy that my love is back again and not only that, we are about to get married again, he proposed. I wouldn't stop talking about him. Contact him today if you need his help via email: emutemple@gmail.com and you will see that your problem will be solved without any delay.
