Today was a good one!

Lightly toasted roll, mayo, sweet pickles, lettuce and a chicken patty.

I added some Ritz crackers under the patty, since I had 'em sitting in my desk.

The crackers made a nice texture.

Yum!

Pretty much the same as every day. PB&J, some raisins, yogurt, and a granola bar. Ho-hum.

I’m about ready for a mid-morning snack. At my desk I have a tin of Trader Joe’s Tongol Chunk Light tuna, a bottle of Kikkoman Soy Sauce, and a bottle of Sriracha.

For lunch I’ll just go to Subway. I haven’t decided if I’ll have a Veggie Delight or a turkey sandwich. And a large (blue) can of Monster.

Didn’t bring lunch today. It’s Lent, so either tuna from the cafeteria or (more likely) a Wendy’s fish sandwich.
