Surprise!

Q: What do you call a chocolate chip muffin?
A: A cupcake.

LOLOLOL! :o) :o) :o)


I'll be back later today. Promise. Rumors of my death, blah blah ha ha yeah, Mark Twain quote and so on.

In the meantime, please tell me what you plan to have for lunch today. Tell me what's waiting for you in your lunch box or brown bag or what you're having your personal butler/valet bring you under a large sterling silver dome atop the finest bone china. And if you're one of these very important go-getters who doesn't have time for lunch, then tell me what you wish you were having for lunch. Or if you're one of these anorexics that are all the rage these days, tell me what you would be eating if only you weren't so damned fat. (P.S. I was anorexic in high school, back before it was popular, so I'm allowed to make little jokes about it. So spare me any outraged tear-splattered email.)

Have only the bestest of morns, kids. I'll be back to pick you up later (said through my Mr. Microphone.) Toodles, ta, etc.

Pot Noodle. That should satisfy your need for someone who's not on the healthy eating kick! Not sure if you get the tasty freeze dried pasta snack in the US but I promise you're not missing much. Off to sit by the pool now and work on getting my lardy butt at least a pleasant colour so I don't scare any small children in passing.

We (meaning THE GIRLS) had salads with cubed turkey, grape tomatoes, croutons, cheese and olives.

Then we had kettle corn.

Ummm..then we went to the vending machine and got Doritos.

It was all washed down with Crystal Light lemonade because we're watching our calories, you know.

Yeah.

Chocolate and liquor drinks.

I'm fasting. I'm fasting fastidiously. I'm fastly fasting fastidiously until you haul your little wandering jew ass back into the ebb and flow of polite social discourse.

So until that time, I'm fasting. And I'm doing it fastidiously.

But hurry. I'm skin and bone as it is. Much more of this and you'll lose the part you like most and be left with nothing but the skin.

I had fresh strawberries and blueberries, honey wheat pretzels, a piece of grilled chicken that my gorgeous boyfriend made the previous night, two chocolates that a patient's family gave us, and lots of water.

It's always been difficult to restrain myself when it comes to the gaping holes you leave for me to fill with all sorts of perversions, but I shall not comment on either.

I will say that the muffin you mentioned isn't exactly the sort of muffin I want to taste, Cupcake.

Offered by: Thomas on June 28, 2006 9:24 AM

Fantastico! You're all turning my frown upside-down! Turning lemons into lemonade! Keep it coming, kids. Keep it coming. (And Thomas, avoid commenting on that verb. I know it's difficult for you to restrain yourself [no comment on that, either], but please -- at least try.)

"Italian" pasta salad (with wheel-shaped pasta, olives, grape tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and Parmesan), a spinach salad, and a Coke. And if I know myself, a Payday candy bar out of the vending machine.

Offered by: MildChild on June 28, 2006 8:42 AM

I have a pot of water boiling, as I comment, which will soon be filled with pasta. Sauce is yet to be determined, perhaps some olive oil and fresh herbs or maybe a sweet red pepper sauce that's sitting in the fridge.

Ferrer Rochers are my appetizer.

I'm back on the all carb eating plan.

I'm late, sorry. A garbage truck jacknifed on I-95.

I ate a pre-packaged club salad (where "club"="bacon on it") from the Creese Cafe at Drexel University, where I was interviewing six college students, all of whom will probably out-strip my career trajectory by the time they are 30. But first, one of them will be our group co-op/lackey. I'm leaning toward the guy who heads the Drexel Objectivism Club. Watching a snot-nosed Ayn Rand fan try to navigate a union refinery would be very entertaining.

Tonight, I'll indulge in some Heath Toffee Ice Cream. I may have a hot dog tomorrow morning for breakfast in your honor, Jodi. I know how you like picturing me groggily working my lips around that cylindrical, hot meat before I'm too awake to know better.

I've only eaten a bunch of cashews, a sort of big handful. Crazy busy. I wish I was at an Indian buffet, stuffing myself with Saag and Dal.

Offered by: Quinn Skylak on June 27, 2006 4:32 PM

Cream of Carrot soup at Café Claude. Yum!

Offered by: Linda on June 27, 2006 4:04 PM

Indian buffet. Mushrooms in this red sauce, cauliflower in this orange sauce, and this yellow sauce that tastes like cream of wheat with turmeric in it.

Oh, and that carrot thing for dessert.

Offered by: Scott on June 27, 2006 2:51 PM

I had a Jr. Cheeseburger and small fries from Wendy's. Later I will go to get cake batter ice cream. To hell with all of you healthy eaters.

Offered by: Jenn on June 27, 2006 2:48 PM

Come on! You're all pulling my oh-so-shapely leg! You can't tell me that you're all eating so healthily (or is that "healthfully"?). Certainly someone's got to be inhaling a Ding Dong or a HoHo or fostering the flow of pure lard into his or her veins via a fried butter sandwich! Or perhaps the less healthy readers are now disheartened and discouraged and don't feel like their lunches are fit for inclusion!

This is an equal opportunity comment area, friends! I welcome all lunch descriptions, whether healthy or deathly!

As for me? Well, I have conveniently forgotten to eat. Whoopsie.

Offered by: Jodi on June 27, 2006 2:11 PM

Still doing the low-carb thing, so today was a ham and turkey wrap with lettuce and swiss, diet orange soda, and a couple chunks of Andes Panquehue cheese. I would have had half an avocado too, but I left it home. I have so-far turned down ice cream, chocolate, and a cheese danish, offered to me by co-workers. 4 weeks now and counting.....

Offered by: Neil on June 27, 2006 1:37 PM

1 Bowl of Shredded Wheat.
1 x 11.5 oz. V8 100% Vegetable Juice
1 x 11 oz. Pure Protein Banana Cream Shake

Offered by: grettir on June 27, 2006 11:42 AM

However, I'd be tempted to cheat on my diet for a slice of that sweet, savory baby you're roasting in that grill/smoker pictured below...

Offered by: Thomas on June 27, 2006 10:59 AM

I'll be having whatever chemicals are packed into a Slim-Fast Optima Double-Chocolate "shake", just like yesterday, the day before and the previous 2 weeks. I'm slowly getting back to being good and looking hot for my "boo", Jodi.

Offered by: Thomas on June 27, 2006 10:57 AM

I packed homemade (by me!) hummus and spicy pita chips. I will supplement this with red pepper slices from one of those takeout salad bar places, and some kind of bottled iced tea. For dessert I will have a muffin-cupcake.
