Light Lunch!

Mr. L and I partake in the Weight Watchers lifestyle.  We go to our meeting and weigh in on Wednesday evenings, so we both try to eat lightly during the day, so it doesn't show up on the scale.

I packed myself a banana and a red naval orange (so amazing, but almost out of season...) for lunch and Mr. L had a Myoplex shake.  Boring, right?

What a Slacker!

I've totally fallen off the face of the blogging planet since the summer, but I've been reading lots lately and have been inspired to get back to blogging about lunch.

So here's an update of what has been keeping me so busy.  I'm a part-time Education graduate student working to get my NJ Teaching certification.  I currently work as a food service manager at a college and as a substitute teacher in 5 different districts.  In 2 very short weeks, my life will changing drastically.  I'm QUITTING my JOB to student teach!!! This is the last step in getting my certification!!! In other words, my four year path to a career change is almost over!  But the reality is that my husband and I will be living off of his salary and a small trust that his parents have set up to help us finish school and be happy and fulfilled in our careers.  Needless to say, we will be on a very tight budget and I will be a lunch-packing, budget-shopping, home-cooking machine.

Stay tuned for more!  I promise I'll be packing, posting, and sharing my lunch creations!
