Whats for lunch? 3.April.06

I was just walking home from school and moping about that i have to make my own lunch and that i havent been food shopping.
I get home and my mother had already prepared for me a bowl of spaghetti with left ovre capsicum from the night before

so what did you have/are having for lunch??

It's healthy all the way for me Fran.

No chocolate, biscuits or crisps anymore!. I've got a lovely bowl of pasta here with ham, tomatoes, cucumber and sweetcorn, drizzled with a weight watchers dressing, followed by a yogurt

Mine is healthy too except i ate a danny sahne right before my pasta!
Its strawberry mousse with cream

Its only 7:30 an I haven't even thought about lunch yet. I just ate 2 chocolate chip pop tarts for breakfast. Yum!!

I just had 4 kettle chips and a cup of tea. I need to go shopping lol.

Its only 730AM here! I haven't even thought about eating anything yet!

So I decided on Pizza Hut for lunch. Yum!!

Oh!!! I'm warming up pizza hut for lunch!!! Yummyyyyy!

I brought some of the vegetarian antipasta I made yesterday. Italian lettuces, marinated olives, red onion, beautiful ripe tomatoes, pepperocinis, blanched asparagus, and provolone cheese. Yum!

My friend made a pot of African Peanut soup and lucky me she brought some into work for me. Delicious and absolutely perfect for this miserable rainy day!

And it was delicious!

I had a bag of popcorn and a chocolate chip cookie - it wasn't what I wanted, but its all I had that was handy! Although the chocolate chip cookie was yummmmy!

Good thing we're getting groceries tonite!

I made broccoli soup in my little magic blender (or whatever it's called) that was on clearance at the As Seen on TV store! (I also got some Zero Odor...that stuff rocks, too).

And now, I am having some tea.
