Mmm..lunch

Well, I've been packing lunch a lot more often these days. Not only because it saves a bit 'o' money (ok, a lot of money), but I think it's a lot healthier.I like the bento style because it encourages me to be creative. Today's was a bit boring...but at least it's healthy. I wasn't going to take lunch tomorrow, but changed my mind at the last moment. Bento takes time and I just didn't have it today as I managed to get ALL of my laundry done and the dishes. I was kind of impressed with myself today.

Anyway, I do tend to get some of the pricier items, like nice cheeses and such, but it's cheaper than a restaurant and it encourages me to eat.I've also started making dinner at home a lot more. A lot more...even eating leftovers...well, I try to freeze those as much as I can. Freezing the vegetables that I'm not able to consume right away. It's really kind of turning out well. The only regular time I eat out is Sunday brunch...

And I have discovered something. My willingness to eat at home is directly porportionate to whether my dishes are done. Didn't really realize that before. Which means my dishes are done most of the time...which is a good thing. In fact, the only time I have gone out to eat is when the dishes haven't been done. So it's a voyage of discovery. Got to love it.
