    OMG - can't believe you only had 30 mins for lunch MrsChaos! How are you feeling about your job this week?

    I think there is a thread about freezing sandwiches on the OS board somewhere - will see if I can find it and edit it in - there you go.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
