So yesterday I spent a ton of time packing food.
We made way more greek salad than we need to, and I packed away some to take to work today.
Than, I got overly ambitious and decided to pack breakfast. It would be replacing my usual Doughnut Plant's coconut cream dounut, so it had to be decent.
So I packed fresh ricotta cheese, strawberries and blueberries in a separate container, fresh figs in a separate container, and shelled and than roasted some pecans (separate container), and even brought in some powdered sugar in a small container to dust my creation after assembly. And I set up the coffee maker and thermos for the morning.
Anyway, in getting together all my tiny containers in the morning, I forgot my big one, with my lunch!!!
Grrr. What am I going to do now. I will go out and buy lunch. But what do I do with that greek salad? I already have plan for dinner (and we should eat it today so it does not spoil). And that salad is expensive - a single organic bell pepper is like $5.
I've tried hard and that is why it is so frustrating.

Don't let missing one day keep you from finding ways to make it work.

Plus, on Wed, I am within a possible trek of the Milk Truck - it will be in Midtown. I like trying new things and this week I was going to check them out and try their Ham and Cheese melt (Niman’s Ranch Applewood Smoked Ham, Vermont Aged Cheddar & Colman’s Mustard on Blue Ribbon Bakery Rosemary Pullman Bread).

You could eat the salad yourself for dinner, save your portion of the dinner tonight for lunch another day? Perhaps not ideal, but workable?
