Some red beans and rice from a downtown spot. http://www.gumbosmtclemens.com/index.html
Store bought hummus with homemade pita chips.
Stupid contractor just had to bring in Dunkin Donut Holes, so maybe a few of those.
Fairly light lunch for me, but it's probably good since we're going away for the weekend and will be indulging ourselves in food the next couple of days.

I made one of the kid's favorites and had a little bowl for lunch. Sauteed chopped onion, green pepper, and hot dogs mixed with a batch of Velveeta shells n cheese. Mix in some chili powder, crushed red pepper, hot sauce, and worcestershire. The kid and I call it Hot Dog Junk. RJ calls it revolting. Oh well.
"We do not need any other Tutankhamun's tomb with all its treasures. We need context. We need understanding. We need knowledge of historical events to tie them together. We don't know much. Of course we know a lot, but it is context that's missing, not treasures." - Werner Herzog, in Archaeology, March/April 2011
I had a webinar for lunch![]()

People will miss that it once meant something to be Southern or Midwestern. It doesn't mean much now, except for the climate. The question, “Where are you from?” doesn't lead to anything odd or interesting. They live somewhere near a Gap store, and what else do you need to know? - Garrison Keillor

I brought my lunch for the 4th time this week. Leftover spahgetti. But the NCAA tourney is calling my name for lunch. I may have to go out.
On second thought, maybe I'll just eat the spaghetti and work through lunch, then leave work early.

Leftover baby backs from the other night. Maybe with a small salad. On a plastic plate so I can dine by the pool.![]()
As a benefit to an employee's wife with a rare cancer, a fish-fry with cole slaw, hush puppies, beans and a bottle of water served by our commissioners. Good cause.

Haven't figured it out yet this morning except it won't be Mexican. Had that last night for dinner (and it was good and spicy).

Salad. Right now the lettuce, spinach and radishes in the back yard gardens are ready for harvest.

Leftover meatballs and rice. An apple and a cheese stick. I've been bringing my lunch a lot more the last few weeks.

Depending on how hungry I am, I'll be having gumbo from a BBQ stand in the township where I'll be working today.
Two Tony's Super Dogs and a diet pepsi. $4.60![]()

Today I had a huge chunk of leftover "Mom's recipe" meatloaf, on two slices of white bread, drenched with ketchup and Hellman's mayo. Heaven on earth. (Why don't we have an orgasmic emoticon?) Good thing I don't eat like that every day.![]()
Today's lunch consisted primarily of nothing...washed down with a BIG drink of water. Yeah, I'm feeling a might bit cranky.

Daughter-in-law and grandson took me out for lunch. Grilled tilapia with tomatillo sauce, red beans and rice, and a salad.

A slice of leftover quiche and a side salad. Then a fried chicken wing and two pieces of bacon. I was eating later than usual and was also kinda cranky. At least I resisted the candy bar that's sitting on the kitchen island...
Two thirds of a Hershey's Chocolate bar, a slice of white toast with peanut butter and a swig out a two-liter of Faygo Root Beer.

Raspberry yogurt, nectarine, 2 cheese sticks, pretzels

Stouffers spaghetti with meat sauce, a side salad, and a Diet Dew. Now I'm thinking about that coffee ice cream in the freezer...![]()
Banh Mi. It's a Vietnamese sandwich. I got the meatballs one.
