I did something today i haven't done for a very long time. (Quiet at the back you lot!) I packed a lunch. I really can't remember the last time I've packed a lunch for work or if, in fact, I ever have but with a fridge full of yummy leftovers it seemed daft not to. Actually I packed breakfast too as I came in pretty early. Breakfast was gravlax on a bagel and lunch was rice with choo chee fish and long beans with pork and roasted chilli paste. I think I may do this more often since it was a marked improvement on the very friendly but dull Korean owned place in the building.

Merry Yaksmas everybody!

Sounds good! I used to get very envious at work looking at [livejournal.com profile] annettle's pictures of her bento lunch boxes.

There's only you would talk about taking a packed lunch, and then describe a positively gourmet meal! :-)

I always take packed lunches to work; the previous night's leftovers, soup from the freezer, or salads made especially for the purpose. It saves a small fortune (I honestly don't understand how people can afford to buy lunch every day!) and is also far nicer than anything I can buy in the vicinity of the office.

How did your coworkers like the aroma? I used to bring leftover Pock-Marked Mama's Beancurd (Ma Po Dow Fu) and microwave it... the aroma from all that garlic and ginger (and Sichuan pepper) overpowered even the popcorn smell, and drove everybody else crazy. I got a lot of requests for the recipe.

There is hardly anybody in today. Besides, this is darkest Mississauga where a pretty high proportion of the population is of South Asian origin so I don't think it would rate as very remarkable.

Yeah, I've been to that cafe thing you guys have in your building - you're right, it's dullsville, but I guess that's what most people want?

BTW, congrats on the jobbo, and tres cool you're working "with" Aubrey and in the same building as furious_g. Small freaky world we live in...

I was drooling over your explanation of the wines and cheeses you had over Xmas...mmmm...
