When one of my coworkers overheard me telling one of my colleagues about my wedding dress fitting yesterday, I received this email from him:
Good news! If your wedding dress doesn’t work out, you can always wear this one:
Great.
I feel better. 😉
Lunch
What legitimately made me feel better was my yummy lunch!
Today’s meal included an avocado and turkey bagelwich with Robert Rothschild raspberry wasabi dipping mustard. I also enjoyed a simple broccoli slaw salad topped with Italian dressing on the side.
I need to include more avocados in my life. After Monday’s night’s ABC sandwich and today’s bagelwich, I realized just how much a couple of creamy slices of avocado can do to an otherwise boring meal.
(Side note: I accidentally misspelled “boring” in the previous sentence and when I went to correct it, a suggestion for the word “boning” came up. Wildly inappropriate, but also quite hilarious… That is if you have a terribly immature sense of humor like I do.)
Yummy lunch fo’ sho’.
(Another side note: I really need to make this avocado-laden sandwich again. Win.)
Tonight
I am anxious to get off work today because I have quite a few things on my to-do list, including whipping up a batch of Ryan’s all-time favorite cookies for Foodie Friday tomorrow.
Babs says
The broc slaw is a new love of mine. It’s so crunchy, and great to just throw into a salad 🙂

I do not second your coworkers idea! Your dress will work out and you will look gorg!
Gavi @ GaviGetsGoing! says
That’s an awesome gown. But yours is going to be PERFECT, so you don’t even have to think about anything else–even as a joke! 🙂 Avocado is my absolute favorite addition to a salad or brown rice tortilla. It may sound strange, but I also like it drizzled with a little honey for a sweet treat. And I absolutely adore the wasabi mustard! Definitely learned my lesson about how hot it is the first time I drenched my dinner with it.
Jamie @ Food in Real Life says
I love avocado. It truly is a fruit of the gods.
I hope you get out of work early! Sounds like you have a lot to do. At least it won’t be a boning day!
peanutbutterfingers says
hahaha this literally made me LOL.
Chicago Cuisine Critique says
Avocado is one of my favorites! It is such a great addition to pretty much any and every thing. As for the broccoli slaw, I need to pick some of this stuff up next time i’m at the store. It looks so good and would be the perfect little side salad to my lunch. 🙂
Nic says
That email from your co-worker would have made me smile too! Could you imagine if that was your backup dress?
Try not to worry, I have a feeling that everything will go fantastic for your on your big day!
Amanda (Eating Up) says
I love Foodie Friday! And Cookie Friday! And Friday Funday! 🙂
carlee says

Foodie Friday sounds fun! I often indulge quite more than normal on Fridays!
Jenna says
Your sandwich reminded me that I haven’t had avocado in far too long!
Raya @ Raya Runs says
HAHA!!!! I’m not sure which is funnier-the dress, or the boning comment. LOL
Holly @ couchpotatoathlete says
That dress is hilarious! If we ever have a female president she needs to wear this every day 🙂
This is so random but I just love that little smiley face on the right hand side of the screen!
Heather (Heather's Dish) says
YIKES. poor dress model…
Laura @ Backstage Pass to Health & Happiness says
Bahaha – that dress is awesome! It makes me think of that song, “AMERICA!!! F*** yeah!”
And LOL… boning / boring… I would have giggled about that one as well.
Liz @ Tip Top Shape says
I have an immature sense of humor like yours apparently because when I read the “boning” blurb I burst out laughing. So, yay! haha
peanutbutterfingers says
haha whenever i write stuff like that i picture a bunch of people unsubscribing to my blog and rolling their eyes. 🙂 glad you’re not one of them!
Tina says
You should SO wear that dress. Or better yet…find an all black one and do a vampire or witch inspired wedding. LOL
kate says
hahaha. boning.
i have the sense of humour of a 12 year old boy so don’t worry, you had me laughing. definitely worth a mention.
definitely don’t fret about the dress, it’ll all work out just fine. three weeks is tons of time!
that sandwich looks delicious…i might need to make one for my lunch tomorrow..
Katrina says
It’s too bad your family reads this blog – you could have that dress for your rehearsal.
Jessica says
My hubby loves avocado on his chicken!! He eats it almost every day!!!
Jemma @ Celery and Cupcakes says
I love creamy avocado! Fresh guacamole is my fav!
Chelsea at Striking Balance says
Avocado is my favourrritee! It adds so much to a sandwich or a salad. So yummy and creamy, and so good for you! 🙂
Melissa says
Totally laughed out loud at “boning!” Still giggling about it, in fact! 😀
