House walkthrough tomorrow!

Life has been super chaotic lately...to the point where my husband has had to buy lunches for Monday and Tuesday, I didn't even have time to throw something simple together!

But, a positive note in all this craziness - I have an appointment to do a walkthrough in a potential rental house today! I'm excited!

(And yes, I'm still alive.) ;3

Bento #38 - Chicken Burgers and Onigiri


This is it - the last of the chicken burgers. ZOMG. :P

Hubby's lunch consists of cooked carrots and broccoli, two small chicken burger patties chopped up, an animal cuppy of ketchup, and three small, plain onigiri. Two animal bottles of soy sauce for the 'giri.

Nice to see a veggie in addition to carrots, I guess. :x

Bento #37 - Rotini with Meat Sauce


This should probably be titled Rotini with Meat Sauce + Encore. :3

I actually made it last night, but was too tired to upload my picture at the time. It was actually my own fault this time - I stayed up til midnight, playing Final Fantasy XI. I hadn't played in a while, so it was nice. :P

So, hubby's lunch roundup: Fish sticks, crinkle cut fries. Animal cuppies of ketchup. Wavy cut cooked carrots. Rotini with meat sauce, leftover from dinner, that dad made. And the last three perogies. >_< We go through them so fast, because they're sooo good, and better than any other option around the house these days. Goodbye, perogies. :( lol

Bento #36 - Fish Sticks

I know. Woo, fishsticks...thrilling, ne? I've had to raid the freezer for lunch material. But at least I'm halfass bentoing...better than none! >_< I miss having good stuff to use for bento, but I'm really excited to be moving...as soon as we can find a suitable place, which is proving to be much more challenging than expected.

My lunches for work on the weekend were boring, so I didn't bother taking pictures. Saturday's lunch was identical to my last post, with one exception - veggie section was half carrots, and half brussels sprouts. Today's? JUST brussels sprouts. I love those things, but I think my coworkers thought me odd. Haha :P

Anyhoo, hubby's lunch for tomorrow: Fishie sticks, crinkle cut fries, and carrots - cut with a snazzy wave-pattern cutter dealie my mom bought me! Animal cuppies of ketchup. I got SOME color in, at least! :3

Bento #34 and 35 - Perogies!

Mmm...perogies. They're sharp cheddar and potato filled, yummy goodness. Well, I'm sure they aren't all that great for you, but they taste awesome! I buy them from a former coworker's father - he makes em by hand, and damn, they're great! Best perogies I've ever tasted.

Yes, I know, my bentos are pretty meh, but it's enough of a stretch to find time to put them together. >_< House hunting is really aggravating - we keep calling to schedule walkthroughs, only to find out that the landlord had rented the place out that morning. So, obviously, considering we call as soon as we get the paper in the morning...people aren't even LOOKING at the places. What the hell? I mean, I want to move ASAP, but there's no chance I'm going to move somewhere without a walkthrough first...

Anyhow, on to the food! I'm doing my best, but with very limited time and funds...oh well, I'm happy enough that I found time to put something together!

Mine, in my snazzy new 500mL bento box: Perogies, and cooked carrots. Woo? Seriously, I never eat anymore! I need to call my doctor and make an appointment tomorrow; I'm almost positive I have hypothyroidism. I had borderline low thyroid hormone levels a few years ago, so it's probably to the point I should be on meds now. >_< I'm tired ALL the damn time, no matter how much sleep I get. I actually feel WORSE after sleeping than I did before. I'm freaking shedding - losing hair much faster than normal, good thing I have thick hair...I never really eat (because I don't need to, I'm not hungry very often), I'm supersensitive to the cold, etcetc...blah! So I'll probably have to go on meds, and it'll be for life. x_X


Hubby's bento (I counted it as one, even though it's in two boxes. It would be in ONE if I had a proper bento box big enough): Cooked carrots, perogies, ramen noodles and chicken burgers. Cuppies of salt/pepper/seasoned salt mix, and BBQ sauce.


I'm trying! >_< lol
