I have just eaten ... →[More:]... a bagel, baked fresh today, still warm when I bought it, which was covered in seeds, had just the right amount of onion in it and was that wonderful combination of crispness on the outside and chewiness on the inside that you only get from the freshest of bagels.

I had it spread with real butter, and with creamy (not crumbly) Lancashire cheese inside it.

What are you eating?

coffee. more precisely, pushcart coffee topped off with the airpot swill in the breakroom and leavened with 2 Mini-Moo's worth of half&half and some sugar. It's on it's third top-offing.

*chatters teeth*

I had two soft boiled eggs on half a whole wheat English muffin, smooshed with salsa.

oh, my. I'm very jealous. We have no bagels in this here place... it's been years since I had a bagel.

I'm making mushroom soup tonight. With salad and sandwich.

gah. We don't have English muffins, either. Phooey. I love those.

I'm about to wander down to the truck myself and see what's on the special's board... it's parked just outside my school. They make a mean hot chocolate, and a hero, chips, and soda are only $5. I'm hoping for chicken parm. If all else fails, there's always Subway.

I'm just about to warm up some leftover lasagna.

I snagged a couple of pieces of fake crab before leaving the house. Now I'm eating broccoli and snap peas with fat-free ranch dressing. Being good sucks. I'd much rather be eating something with melty cheese.

I am drinking Stash licorice spice tea and I just had some almonds. I'm looking at the butternut squash and apple soup that I brought for lunch and wanting to eat it now. Mmmm warm.

I had toast with honey, because my stomach's been a bit off recently. Lunch will probably be something unhealthy, which is why my stomach is off...

I just had two cupcakes from a bake sale and in 28 minutes I can go home for a sandwich and soup.

I had cheese and biscuits and a cup of tea for lunch, and now you're all making me hungry.

Deviled eggs, strawberry C monster and some 58.5% cocoa semi sweet dark chocolate discs.

A sub from the Korean grocery a few blocks away. Baloney, salami, cheese, lettuce, oil/vinegar, salt/pepper, and a few sweet peppers. Mmm.

Actually, I will be eating this as soon as I go get it, which I'm about to do right now.

That chocolate where the list the cocoa percentage freaks me out a bit. It's kind of like advertising booze with the alcohol content in huge letters on the label. Pips bought some 73% chocolate flavored with espresso. I had a bit. It was like chocolate crack. Left a great aftertaste though.

BoPo: ditch the lettuce and replace the baloney with proscuitto and that's the perfect sandwich, bro.

Wheat chex, sliced banana, skim milk.

Last night, I ate a 'Hawaiian' chicken sandwich and some waffle fries. Today, I packed an apple, but I haven't had a chance to eat it. Happily, lunchtime is in about an hour.

Also, I loves me some dark chocolate.

Late breakfast.

Fried some bacon, removed to paper towel to drain. Added chopped sweet onion to the bacon drippings, sweated onions, added chopped celery and chopped black olives. Dumped in 3 beaten eggs, cooked until soft scrambled. Added some leftover steamed rice, and a can of red beans, and dumped the drained bacon back in, with some basil and marjoram.

Black coffee on the side.

paulsc, that sounds delicious.

Cilantro would be good with that. and black beans.

Cheetos and the ever present fake (store brand) diet Coke.

I haven't eaten anything yet. And I wasn't hungry until I read this. FUCKERS.

I think I'm going to go to the grocery store and get one of their subs. (turkey, provolone on a seven grain hoagie...I'll add oil/vinegar and red onion.) AND I also want some cookies but I'm not sure if I'll give in to that or not.

Chicken strips from the hospital cafeteria. They have this synthetic "plum sauce" that's absolutely unbelievably yummy - I have no idea what's in it, but it's like crack cocaine for my tastebuds.

Top sirlion strips, sliced carrots, onions, potato cubes (skin on) and spices cooked for eight hours in the crock pot. Served with buttered toast.
