Day 5 completed for me today, so thats a whole working week of bringing lunch to work with me. Although today was a bit of a cheat - as an xmas treat our company buys everyone a bacon roll, so thats what I had today. And yummy it was too!

Good evening lovely people i am in a VERY happy mood today. It's Friday and in 2 weeks Christmas will be over! What's not to be happy about!

I am wondering what my work schedule will be like for next week. I think (know!) i'll have extra hours, which will lovely I appreciated the extra £'s in my pay packet this week, so as much as i groan about working, i like the money at the end of the day!

I am going 'Big Shopping' (my weekly shop) tomorrow morning. I have to make a list of lunches from the front page, that i want to try.
Have any of you tried some that you'd recommend?

I know i will make pizza wheels and ham salad wraps, BLT.

I am seriously impressed with you all, you are doing really well.

mavvysmum- bacon rolls sounds lovely, especially since they are free

Jelly- crackers and cheese are the best lunch EVER. Fact.

Soworried- Ham and pea soup is something i have never tried before!

Blue-hope you arent too hungry?

Cathy- Yes, the laptop has recovered It must be used to the cat sitting/jumping/sleeping/standing on it by now

I took this to work yesterday:



We had a fuddle and everybody took something different to share. I did cheese and pineapple, cheese and onion, and cheese and tomato on sticks - which was really lovely! It was quite time consuming to make, though, and was eaten in about 10 minutes.

That looks great, Juno! I adore cheese and pineapple!

Just finished making chicken and bacon risotto ... it's probably enough to cover all five lunches this week but I might if I get inspired make something else so I can eat it across four. It's yummy, I had a small bowl of it.
