Yes please, count me in for 20 days :j
I mostly take my own lunches to work already, but it will be good to track it all properly. Because I can't eat wheat and I'm veggie I have no choice really other than planning things in advance. Working in a area of London where salads are £6 :eek: this can only be a good thing.
Going to aim for 4 days out of 5 of not buying lunch or coffees. We have a proper espresso machine at work so it's silly to buy coffees, but every now and then I like a special one that I can't make myself.
I never buy breakfasts, I've got a box of porridge at work and various toppings so that's sorted.0 -

Now this sounds like a challenge I need! Our canteen closed down at work, and sad as that was, it was too easy to use it as an excuse. My office is right next door to it!!
So could I join in with a target of 20 days? As I need to take lunch every day, that sounds sensible.
I have a stash of flavoured tea, porridge & cup a soups in my drawer. So if I forget to make lunch the night before, I have a plan B.
I usually take homemade soup or salad, but would love something a bit more interesting. I plan on making these peanut butter and banana muffins tomorrow in preparation for breakfasts next week

Looking forward to having a nosey at everyone else's lunch!My name is CherryPie and I'm addicted to grocery shopping!!

I've got some salad bits to use up, so tomorrow's lunch will be a wrap with hummus, lettuce, tomato and cucumber. I have all the ingredients so hoping it will be a NSD as well.0
