Lunch should have its own thread

[May Kasahara]

Ch'pot-LAY, obviously in a broad estuarine accent.

I had no clue either and avoided saying it out loud for years

I had a big plate of leftover Cauldron sausage and braised green lentils. All the mash gone down our pie-holes yesterday.

Oh. I always said it like it rhymed with total.

 

[sojourner]

Two buttery marmitey crumpets, bag of salted McCoys, and some choccy hobnobs. And a camomile tea.

 

[May Kasahara]

Minestrone soup
Tupperware box full of fruit (apple, blood orange, blueberries, red grapes)

 

[miss direct]

I'm having vermicelli with satay stir fried courgette, peppers, cauliflower and carrots.

 

[sovereignb]

i had a bacon, avocado and mozerella panini with sweet chilli sauce

 

[polly]

Home made wholemeal bread, toasted with taramasalata. Then some slices of Mortadella (dirty and wrong but so good) out of the packet. Probably some chocolate and tea in a minute.

 

[Jeff Robinson]

Mushroom and butter bean burger in a seeded bun with hummus, couscous, beetroot, rocket, avocado and toasted pumpkin seeds.

 

[Rebelda]

Tom yum with noodles, kohlrabi and an egg. Extra mirin and lime juice.

 

[Rebelda]

Oh and finger blood.

 

[Looby]

A Chicago town mini pizza and lemonade. Nutritious and grown up. [emoji41]

 

[sheothebudworths]

A poached egg on toast...and I'm going to have a peanut cookie for pudding in a minute

 

[May Kasahara]

Butternut and red lentil soup, with two slices of buttered granary bread. Followed by a giant slice of cake that someone has thoughtfully distributed via the communal staff room.

 

[sojourner]

Two of those leftover roasted peppers, with a whole pack of roast veg couscous. And hobnobs. I are one greedy bastard.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Some left over homemade pizza from last night, kidney beans, salad and red wine.

I'm beginning to think I should have put the kidney beans on top of the actual pizza when constructing it originally.

You make some cracking stuff, mate. Always looks delicious.

 

[polly]

A BLT, followed by the B, L & T from my son's and the L and T from my daughter's

 

[Jeff Robinson]

Thanks mate! Not every meal makes it on here.

 

[May Kasahara]

Avocado, mozzarella, red pepper, tomato, cucumber, rocket, little gem, black olive salad. Various fruits.

 

[Rebelda]

A strange cafeteria meal of 'salted potatoes' - flat, sautéed afaict - overcooked mixed veg and baked beans

And a coffee.

That sounds lovely!

((((Rebelda)))))

I had soft seedy brown roll with cheddar, lettuce, mayo and salted sticks, and a Sainsbury's too good for the likes o you range Scotch egg.

 

[May Kasahara]

It was lovely, and I like to think makes up for the stodgeariffic trencher of pie, mash and peas I crammed into my face last night.

Just remembered a strange exchange over the microwave yesterday - someone came in as I was heating up my soup, asked what was for lunch and then said "oh, being good?" I said "no, I just like soup" and we made this face at each other until she went away.

Surely other women must eat soup for its own sake

 

[Cheesypoof]

Been eating toasted cheese, ham, dijon mustard and mayonnaise sandwiches for the past month!

Ah, the old terribly spelled sautéed potatoes eh? I once saw them advertised on a festie menu as 'sorted' potatoes. Which, after I'd finished ripping the piss out of it, I thought was quite fitting, at a festie

It then said "oh, being good?" I said "no, I just like soup" and we made this face at each other until she went away.

Urgh! I LOATHE that division between 'good' and 'bad' for food. Fucks sake. You are attaching a massive moral judgement to your fucking LUNCH?! Are you shitting me?!

I got my personal favourite of 'ooo, do you make everything yourself', in relation to my soup today. Trick question time again.

Twats.

I don't think it was a typo, I think they'd just tried to give it a name

Don't ruin the scorn! Tsk.

 

[Rebelda]

sorry. Scorn away

 

[sojourner]

sorry. Scorn away

Good, ta, I will


*scorrrrrrrnnnnn*


Ahhhhh. that's better.
