Seriously guys, let’s try not to side with Ryan on the next debate we have, mmm kay? First the swamp beast debate and now this? Where’s your loyalty, readers? 😉
Lunch
After losing the penny debate by an embarrassing amount and plowing through a bunch of work, it was lunchtime!
I ended up eating the freezer food I packed for Friday but never ate because we had an office pizza party. We were low on food at home on Friday, so I packed a Starkist SeaSations fish filet and a packet of Green Giant Healthy Vision veggies to heat up.
Though it was a pretty good lunch for freezer food, it reminded me of one of the many reasons I prefer to pack fresh foods.
The line for the microwave in the break room at lunchtime is ginormous! It seems like every employee had a Lean Cuisine to heat up… which meant a 4+ minute wait several times over. Good thing I had a big morning snack and wasn’t starving or I would’ve been cranky.
Lunch also included a cup of Chobani Greek yogurt with a packet of honey (snagged from Starbucks) for a little sweetness at the end of my meal. I am currently craving a cup of frozen yogurt (withdrawals from this weekend?), but my current workload coupled with the rainy weather are keeping me from a cup of the good stuff!
On a happy note, there’s a special episode of Jersey Shore on tonight! (Please don’t judge me by the shows I watch.)
Last night, when Ryan and I were being lazy, we said that Sadie probably thinks we’re like Ron and Sammie (super boring) and she’s like Snooki, a pint-sized party animal.
Blog is the New Black says
Haha, Snooki Sadie…
Julia says
I’m not sure what to watch tonight – Jersey Shore or the Bachelor! Too many good reality shows in one night.
Ellen @ Cinnamonalicious says
Haha! There’s nothing like a good bit of trashy tv to unwind to in the evenings 😀
Lunch looks good for freezer food!
Hope says
I hate when the lines for the microwaves get really long. I notice a lot of people at my work eat Lean Cuisines also. I used to be one of them until they started making me feel sick. I feel much better and more full when I pack a fresh lunch that I created myself. 🙂
Anon says
I thought that was Sadie Kardashian! 😀
Carrie says
hahhahahhah love the jersey shore reference!! and i was on your side!
Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says
In high school I used to SPRINT from my last class down to the caf to heat stuff up. The line would always be redic! It’s so frustrating to wait when you’re hungry and cranky 🙁
Andrea says
TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT JERSEY SHORE TONIGHT!! Yay! Any idea why it’s a special episode?
peanutbutterfingers says
b/c the show attracts a lot of viewers & MTV wants the ratings???
Andrea says
Well that is a given! I meant any ideas as to why they are airing an extra episode on a Monday instead of the usual Thursday and advertising it as a ‘special’ episode!
Leanne (For Health's Sake) says
I didn’t have a chance to comment on the earlier post but I think Ryan is crazy. A penny is lucky. LUCKY!
& you are ridic. But that’s why I keep coming back to your blog.
Averie (LoveVeggiesAndYoga) says
Jersey Shore…I dont watch it but love Kendra, Kardashians, Real Housewives, Millionaire Matchmaker…I am all about some mindless entertainment 🙂
peanutbutterfingers says
millionaire matchmaker is fantastic!
Meg says
Oh lawd, Jersey Shore is not my thing, but hearing about it seriously CRACKS me up 😀
Confession: I steal honey packets from Starbucks like it’s my job.
Maria says
Omg you guys are nothing like Ron and Sammie, they’re always fighting and I’m sure Ryan doesn’t treat you like Ron treats Sammie. You guys are a much better couple than them 😀
And woot woot Jersey Shore two times this week!!
peanutbutterfingers says
haha true. i’d die if we really were like ronnie & sam… or we’d kick each other’s butts. those two are awful together!
Ashley P. @ The Vegetable Life says
Hahaha You are too funny…. I will still pick up all pennies even if its tails side up!
I do watch jersey shore as well, but mostly to get in a good laugh at the outrageous things they do!
Heather (Heather's Dish) says
hey, i was on your side 🙂 just noting that! and sadie is TOTALLY snooki…minus the boobies
Katy (The Singing Runner) says
Hahaha!!! I love the picture at the end… 😀
mkr says
Snooki doesn’t hold a candle to the cuteness of your pupster!
Stacie says
If only Snooki looked as cute as Sadie does!
Mary @ Bites and Bliss says
hahaha!! Love the makeover you teo gave Snooki. She’s much better this way. 🙂
Katelyn @ Chef Katelyn says
It’s totally fine, I watch obnoxious amounts of Jersey Shore while I’m working out…the fact that I am exercising is my excuse;)
That is so funny, Sadie would definitely be Snooki! Except Sam and Ron are toomuch, and you and Ryan are presh;)
Courtney @ The Granola Chronicles says
Gah – I miss Jersey Shore! Once we moved to California in the fall, we decided not to get cable. It’s time like this that I wish we had!
Bess @ Bess Be Fit says
I’m def watching Jersey Shore tonight too…no judgement here! The previews of watching Snooki faceplant in the sand hammered drunk don’t get old…this episode should be pretty funny! I’ll also be watching the bachelor, too 🙂
Michelle says
Hahaha, Sadie Snookie. Love it!
Dani @Princess of Queens says
OMG Ron and Sammie need to be voted off the Island!!!!! Even though they have tons of drama no one likes them!!!! And yes if snooki had a dog equivalent it would be Saddie, just replace alcohol with sticks. My dog Beaver would be the Situation…..All he wants to do is hump other dogs but he is constantly getting rejected lol (even if he is fixed)
Shannon says
I didn’t get a chance to comment earlier but I always thought ALL pennies were lucky. In fact the first time I heard about the tails-up thing was watching The Back-Up Plan on Saturday night. I was like what?!
laura says
hi Julie
i have a little puppy and we start with the potty training…. could you please give me some tips?
how did you do with Sadie?
thx
Melissa (MelissaLikesToEat) says
I had never heard of that penny stuff either so don’t feel bad!
Keely (Sky Blue) says
Pennies are allllwwwaaayyyssss lucky!!!
Liz @ Tip Top Shape says
I was watching the Jersey Shore marathon for most of today!! That show is so bad, but SO good.
Sarah K. @ The Pajama Chef says
the line for the microwave can be really long for me too. i’m in grad school & always eat lunch @ the library and there are a ton of asian girls bringing their leftover stir fry to heat up. it looks so good but they heat it up forEVER and i get so hungry waiting!
Amber K says
Hey I was with you on the swamp beast thing! lol
Jersey Shore is the epitome of guilty pleasure! Although I think it was a bit too soon for this season, there’s just something about Jersey!
Megan says
Oh, Julie–Sadie is SO much prettier than Snooki!!! And definitely more responsible, I’m sure!
Kathie @ Frugal, Fit and Fabulous says
Hahaha, Sadie Snookie..love it!
i tried those frozen veggies this weekend after seeing them here. They are pretty tasty as an quick fix alternative.
Jessica says
haha! Love it….although I have to say that Vinny is my favorite…he’s somewhat in the background but I think he’s hysterical. On a side note…your extra long microwave line made me super grateful for the cafeteria where I work. A yummy hot meal every day for $3 and it’s pulled from our paychecks? Can’t complain…expecially when she makes things like chicken marsala or taco salads – delish!
Anne says
