Yippee! I received my Laptop Lunchbox in the mail and it is purple! Tomorrow, I will be having Cold Asian Pasta with Peanut Butter Sauce for lunch. The recipe for this Asian pasta salad can be found in the Laptop Lunchbox User Guide. I also packed slices of an orange and cucumber mixed with red bell pepper slices for snacks. I still had a compartment left and decided to pack a breakfast too. I packed a homemade muesli. I mixed oats and chopped dried apricots with a drizzle of honey, a tablespoon or so of apricot perserves and then stirred in enough milk (soy milk is really good too) to moisten the mixture. It needs to be refridgerated overnight. The muesli shown is before it has been refridgerated and therefore has not yet set. This looks like a ton of food, but I am going to try to eat more throughout the day and less at night. Currently, I drink coffee until 1:30pm. Then I had a small broth soup and a roll for lunch. I ate dinner at 8pm. Usually, I eat more at night, but tonight it wasn't too bad (homemade chili and a GoLean bar).

Turkey Chili for Lunch
I have decided to start bringing my lunches to work. Which is depressing, since I would rather leave my building than spend another hour there.Tonight I packed one cup homemade turkey chili (about 250 calories), Trader Joe's Corn Tortilla Flat Bread Crackers (90 calories) and a Spinach Salad. This will probably be too much food, since I had one cup of chili and some crackers for dinner and that filled me up. I have a secret fear of not having enough food at work and then resorting to junk food.
