It's a lunch date!

I have to admit I am fairly good at bringing my lunch to work everyday except Friday, which is eat out with the ladies day.  Normally it would be leftovers but since I have recently become single I have not been as motivated to cook for myself at night.

My coworker is not good at bringing a lunch at all and I think in the last three years we have worked together she may have brought a lunch six times.  I can tell you she is a very good cook though.

We have decided that every Tuesday we are going to alternate bringing lunch for each other.  I am looking very forward to our new arrangement as I think it will spice up my lunch week and hopefully motivate her to bring a lunch at least once a week.  This seems like a win win situation for both of us.

Now I am on the search for interesting lunch ideas and recipes to make to wow here with my cooking skills.  It is so much more enjoyable to cook for someone else as well as yourself.

Do you have any ideas?  I am very interested for you to share them.

In June while on vacation I found a tea store selling hand tied leaves.  What a fantastic aroma of jasmine.  It is the Madame Butterfly tea by Capital Teas (www.capitalteas.com).  It was very expensive and I just couldn't afford it but they certainly had lots of great teas. My most recent vacation in Florida found me in the Spice and Tea Exchange (www.spiceandtea.com) where I purchased a small bag of loose leaf hazelnut cookie tea.  Ceylon black base so not my usual herbal but wonderful smell and tastes very rich.  An enjoyable tea....

Energy Healing: The Essentials of Self Care This one resonated with me. I could hardly put it down and that is unusual for me with a book in this genre. It all started for me on page 10 with a great composite view of different energy anatomies that had been explained in the preceding pages. For me, it really brought together the Chinese medicine, Thai massage, chakras and aura system in relation to each other. The healing stories through opening our connections to the energy fields of the universe were motivating and interesting to read. The first exercise I tried was the first one in the book "toe tapping". It's a pretty simple exercise so following the instructions was easy. I only kept it up for about a week but I believe I did start to feel benefits. I like to meditate and I am always looking for new ideas. This book provided. I still want to try the metta meditation and many of the other meditations that are throughout the book. I still have a numb...
