They understand how strong one’s love for cookies can be and make sure to snag extra cookies at every opportunity to share with their fellow cookie lovers!
Today I was fortunate enough to enjoy these two shortbread cookies thanks to a man who nabbed them for me from his company’s private luncheon and gave them to me to enjoy as I prepared my snack in the break room that our companies share. Score!
They were the perfect appetizer. 🙂
Lunch
Lunch today included a big ol’ salad.
In the mix:
- Broccoli slaw
- Rotisserie chicken deli meat
- Chopped red pepper
- Kraft light Asian toasted sesame dressing
I love this dressing! It makes any salad taste like a delicious restaurant-quality Asian salad.
Now I am off to cram in another couple hours of work before the weekend.
I’m really looking forward to this weekend because Ryan and I are celebrating Valentine’s Day tomorrow with our annual Valentine’s Day Mission followed by a fancy-schmancy dinner. Our wonderfully romantic dinner last year will be a tough one to top but we’re gonna try. We’re ambitious like that. 😉
(P.S. The Fashion page was updated earlier this afternoon!)
I’m definitely a cookie monster!! I ate 5 cookie dough balls today…YUM! 😀
Awww that’s so sweet! Hope your dinner tops last years! 🙂
Everyone at work always knows me as “the eater” so I’d often get free food bestowed upon me 🙂 I never complained!!
I’m not a huge fan of Asian/sesame-flavored salad dressings, but I’ll have to try that one out! I’m usually boring and just do balsamic + EVOO 🙂 Have a great date!!
I love your Valentine’s Day mission! That is such a cute idea! Have fun tonight! Valentine’s Day is so fun to celebrate! 🙂
You look so cute today! I love cookies! Your oh so simple salad looks delicious!!
You definitely have your priorities straight! Cookies are appetizers, meals on their own AND desserts 😉
Those cookies look amazinggg! Your salad doesn’t look to bad either 🙂 I have to try the broccoli slaw, it looks like a good change from my usual baby arugula
Mmmm…cookies. I’m obsessed with the vegan black bean brownies I made last night. So awesome! 🙂
Can’t wait to see where you guys are off to for V-day. You may have said this somewhere already, but do you guys decided on the restaurant together..or do you/Ryan pick for the both of you?
ryan plans valentine’s day dinner. 🙂
Yum! Those cookies look delish! =D
I love broccoli slaw in salads!
Oh I just got back from the store with brocolli slaw! That dressing is mighty tasty, had it before.
And my “cookies” for today are the 7 new flavors of SPREAD peanut butter that arrived in the mail today.
Wow, so delicious and I’ve only opened one of them 🙂
The cookies look almost too good to eat.
My boyfriend is anti-Valentines Day and refuses to take part in “this over-marketed Hallmark-created event blah blah blah”! Annoying, right? I’m so jealous of your mission. I want Valentines pressies!! 🙂
A pink cookie that sparkles is the best kind of cookie. I wish the feminine glitz of Valentine’s Day was more available year-round.
The cookies are so cute! Can’t wait to see what your V-day dinner turns out to be! 🙂
Am I missing what the mission actually is?! yay for cookies on Fridays!
we have 2 hrs. to buy each other gifts under $15! (this year we’re upping the budget to $20 though.)
Aww it was nice of him to bring you back some cookies!
I had a big ol’ salad for lunch as well. .. . now I just need some Valentine cookies! 😉
How cute/fun!! 🙂 $5 more for being married, of course! 😀
Cookie appetizers are the bestest! 🙂 Store dressing always make salads taste like they are from a restaurants. Makes ordinary lunches feel a little special. 🙂
I love those sprinkle cookies! What a nice surprise!
I know I’m super pumped for Monday at work…there will be lots of treats I’m sure 🙂 Can’t wait to see how your little gift mission goes! Have so much fun at your dinner!
mmmmm I love Valentine’s day with the sweetie! Enjoy the rest of work- and your salad looks FANtastic!! 😉
Haaa love this! I had a pumpkin cookie i made a few days ago alongside my breakfast this morning (i used your recipe with the can of pumpkin and spicecake… sooo good!)
BTW! I’ve been meaning to ask, do your coworkers know about your blog/know that you blog? Do they follow you? I’ve always been curious about that…
ive tried that dressing before…good stuff!
and your outfit from the last post….so cheery and sunny and cute! 🙂
Cookies are awesome. Although I’m suuuper picky when it comes to cookies so no one else would really be able to pick some out for me!
Haha! That was nice of the guy! 😀 Lucky!
