Lunch: well it happened: delicious vietnamese cuisine that re-heated pretty well. Now I understand the whole meaning of to-go boxes for left-overs. Happy belly!

Dinner: Another late evening, and we had literally pounds of pizza (just 5 slices!) in the fridge at work.. So I had one slice with a yogurt and a banana. I'm sure we'll eventually run out of pizza and some healthier meals will magically show up.

I need to work on my magic skills.

Wednesday, August 22: Lunch

Now, will you believe this? This morning I prepared a nice lunch-box full of good things to have a good healthy lunch and as I was about to walk out the door I received a phone call.. I answered and my mono-task brain focused on the conversation, and when I was done and ready to go I left my lunch-box behind :-/ So no left-overs for me today. Instead I joined the team to go the little Hawaiian place, and I have a healthy avocado salad. Yum and green!

Fairly predictable lunch, unexpected "dinner" tonight.. Lunch was left-over pizza from yesterday's lunch, good enough, and dinner was some kind of hot dog at the Google Dance (I was a guest there tonight.)

I think I'm seeing a pattern here: if I were to rate my meals and plot the result on a graph over the past two weeks, I think the line would be going down and to the right i.e. not too good. Luckily I have plenty of yummy left-overs for the next couple of days so it might raise the average a little bit.. :)

Monday, August 20: Lunch

For lunch our team went to a small pizza place in Palo Alto (I believe it was N.Y. Pizza on Hamilton.) I had a mini 8'' vegetarian and could only eat half of it -- I guess I know what I'm having for lunch tomorrow ;)

Sunday, August 19: Lunch

Light lunch today as I wanted to go out in the sun and time was running tight: multi-grain bread + cheese (emmentaler, appenzeller), bread + nutella (bwahahaha YUM YUM), yogurt, peach, done deal. On the road. Bye!

Saturday, August 18

Saturday... Hmm, okay so let's see: I had breakfast really late because Friday's wild no-sleep night (okay, it wasn't really wild but I didn't sleep much) and so later I kind of skipped "lunch" (snacked on a carrot, apple and a peach.) Dinner was more on the light side too: tomatoes, zucchini bread (that was the end of it.. It was almost crunchy-dry at that point, but still yummy), a papaya from Hawaii that I brought back three weeks ago (ooooh that was good!), a yogurt and a banana. At least I have my share of fruits in there :)

No wine again. I think my joints are starting to rust with all that water I'm drinking.

Friday was Hawaiian day :-) We went for lunch to this little Hawaiian restaurant in Palo Alto (Hukilau on Ramona st I believe) and I had a Mahi sandwich. I thought it'd be healthy but the fish was deep fried or something...) Of course the first thing that came to mind when I got there was to order a Mai Tai but it being a work lunch and all, it didn't happen.. Too bad :) The sandwich was big enough that I had plenty left over and so dinner was fulfilled easily without having to leave work :-)

Today was another... Quizno's day! Oh no! I bought a long sandwich at lunch so I had plenty left for dinner. That was a good idea because I left work after midnight :-/ (But hey I found a bunch of bugs!) (I mean, not in my sandwich ;-) )

Wine: none!

Wednesday, August 15: Lunch

Oooh, a healthy sandwich from Whole Foods with artichoke hearts, avocado, basil and a bunch green stuff... It was good and I have some left for tonight :) I'm sure it shouldn't be too difficult to prepare something like that on my own.. Will think about it.

Also, somehow I have to find a substitute for the 4pm kitkat, i'm sure that's not the best thing I could ingest as a snack (but that's about the healthiest available on site.) I could bring a banana or something but I just can't make myself remember this sort of things in the morning. Hmmm.

Tuesday, August 14: Lunch

Hey, this time I convinced my team to go to... Quizno's! Again! :-) And I had left-overs...

Monday, August 13: Lunch

Lucky me! My Googler friends invited me over and I had a delicious lunch at Cafe Moma (fish, plenty of green, yellow, white veggies, a couple of potatoes, and some yummy crumbly desert.) Brings back memories of the good ol' times when food was like that every day :-)

Sunday, August 12: Lunch

"Lunch" happened fairly late in the day given how late I happened to wake up ;) And it was made of the other half of the tuna sandwich (it was pretty yummy.)

Saturday, August 11: Lunch

carrot, cantaloupe (the last piece! but I have another full one in the fridge...), one piece of zucchini bread (hmmm it's a little dry now, but I'm almost out), cherries, apple. Basically, grab what I can and survive :-)

Friday, August 10: Lunch

Hmmm should I really say it... Today was some special occasion and for an easy place that can host a lot of people for not too much... Round Table Pizza. I'm going to have to do something about the lunch situation ;)

Thursday, August 9: Lunch

Ouch! I am experiencing new lows in American nutrition! Today I let myself be convinced to follow my team for a... 7-eleven lunch experience. Ouch! Ended up eating a hot-dog that was scary-looking with lots of spicy condiments that kind of killed any taste this thing could have had. Wow. They'll have to pay me next time to get me to follow them there :-)

Wednesday, August 8: Lunch

Indian Buffet with the team...

Tuesday, August 7: Lunch

Greek Gyros!

Monday, August 6: Lunch

First day at my new job. Lunch (with the team): round table pizza... Ouch :-/

Sunday, August 5: Lunch

Cantaloupe, cold pork with dijon mustard, half-avocado with vince's vinaigrette, yogurt, strawberries and ice-cream.

(I had a few old strawberries laying around so I figured I'd throw them with a bit of sugar in ice-cream and that'd make a good desert :) )

Saturday, August 4: Lunch

Jetlag is still kicking and got me to sleep wayyy to late.. So lunch looks like a big bowl of cereal ;)
