The Icebox Conference Room

The Icebox

Today I had to dial in to an all-day meeting conference call, so I set-up in one of the conference rooms in our office. Little did I know, the conference room was more prepped to store frozen food than be used for meeting. It was freezing in there!

This may look like a normal outfit to some of you, but…

…the jacket I’m wearing is by The North Face…as in the gear people wear when they’re climbing snow-capped mountains…yea, that one.

But wait, it gets better…

Remember those leg warmers I bought for that 80’s party?

I wore them today because I was THAT cold in that conference room…seriously!

A closer look. Good thing I was wearing pants today so I could at least hide those leg warmers a bit.

My Patagonia Synchilla Blanket also helped me stay somewhat warm today. Boy, was I glad when that meeting was over so I could thaw out!

Hodge Podge Lunch + Snacks

Lunch was a bit of a hodge podge. We didn’t have any lunch meat so I couldn’t make a sandwich, like usual. The risotto I made for dinner last night made a TON so I brought some leftovers in along with a Morningstar Soysage for good measure.

I also brought in a half orange pepper and some baby carrots – lots of good orange veggies in there.

“Dessert” was a TJ’s fruit leather...

…and the snacking didn’t stop there. I also had some Kashi Crackers in Fire Roasted Veggie .

Later, I had a lovely Pure Bar in ChocolateBrownie – these things are just amazing, no?

This bar made a great pre-workout snack.

Foodie Explores

After work, hubby and I ran some errands. We got some new scallops to replace the funky-looking ones we did not eat yesterday and I also picked up some new foodie things to try:

Did you know that the makers of the oh-so-good Yogi Teas is now making cereal? Yuppers! Yogi is now offering cereal, and I got some Goji Berry Fake & Cluster (Essential Antioxidant) to try.

We also got the coffee The Fresh Market had on sample because it was so nice, light, and smooth. This is the Fair Trade Certified & Organic Guatemalan coffee. I love supporting fair trade whenever possible and this is organic and was on sale to boot!

I can’t wait to dig into my new goodies!
