How was your weekend? Mine was good/busy/work-filled. BUT, yesterday, I went to the Wild Animal Park. The Wild Animal Park is a sister park to the San Diego Zoo, except it's the prettier, more accomplished sister in my opinion. Love that place.
I went with Christina and JGago, and since I'd been there before, I immediately dragged them on the Journey to Africa safari tram ride. It's fabulous. Then, we checked out a gigantic lion and proceeded to the Sumatra Tiger's cage, where I was mauled.
Do not be fooled by the picture. It was dramatic.
Okay. So, I didn't really get mauled by a tiger, but I did fall down in dramatic fashion in front of the tiger's cage. Thankfully my purse managed to wrap itself around a fence post and totally secured my right arm like a vice grip, thereby slinging me around so that I landed squarely on my elbow. I was so tangled up, Christina had to come detach me from the fench post. Awesome. :p
After that, I came home and decided I deserved a dip in the pool with my new bikini. It was a victory! No one fainted, gasped in horror, or cried for their mommies. Mind you, there were only two mothers and three eight-year-old boys there, but still. No one gave me a second look, and I'll take that, thank you very much.
After my very quick dip in the pool, I proceeded to make my husband's lunch (for today).
Ryan's Lunch
Did you know I make my husband's lunch almost every day? I like knowing that he opens his lunch box at work and has a healthy meal made with love. :)
I try to always include some type of fruit. Strawberries were out of this world cheap, so that's the fruit of the week. He usually prefers a citrus fruit, though.
For his "main course," I usually send leftovers, but we didn't really have anything. So, a turkey and cheddar sandwich on whole wheat. With mayo, because he loves it.
And, what would lunch be without a big, green salad?!? Nothing at all, of course.
I added hardboiled eggs, a small bit of cheese, and some dressing in a smaller container.
Plus strawberry yogurt and a strawberry-kiwi juice. Yes, this lunch is obviously themed.
Note: He doesn't eat all of that at once. I think the yogurt or fruit end up as snacks later or earlier in the day.
Now, I'm off to make an iced coffee (decaf) and write write write.
Do you make your hubby/significant other's lunches?
yup if i didn't make my hubby's lunch he would be eating out all the time, not good for the budget!
ReplyDeleteThe zoo sounds fun! I haven't been to one in years! Iused to make my husbands lunch, when he was still teaching, but now he works at home everyday. I think his lunch is usually Corn Flakes and toast. haha.
ReplyDeleteMy hubby will eat whatever I put in front of him, but if I don't make him lunch, he'll head over to the Taco Bell across from his office.
ReplyDeleteSo, to prevent him from gorging on Grade Z ground beef, I usually make him lunch. I've been trying to get him to eat Nori, i.e. seaweed. He's not big into nutrition, so I have to be on the lookout for him. The things you'll do for love...

I make my husband's lunch for him every day :) Normally it's leftovers, fruit, some yogurt and I try and get some veggies in the boy too!!
