By choice, I ate the same thing for lunch everyday from first to eighth grade (1/2 a peanut butter sandwich and an apple) so, while I go through periods of eating similar things most days, I tend to crave variety.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
lisah: I did that too but it was more like I had to have pb&j everyday for lunch in 2nd grade and scrambled eggs every day for breakfast. (After that year it wasn't until my 20s that I could handle eating peanut butter ever again.)
And I think I had a very basic cheese sandwich for lunch for most of my high school years.
You guys, I want to eat the same thing for lunch every day. Is that OK?
Depends. Is that thing ice cream?
My throat still hurts like the dickens. Even though I've been on antibiotics for almost 2 days. It's been hurting since Friday or so. I hate this.
I am sorry about your throat, mears, but I read this
My throat still hurts like the dickens
As My throat still hurts like chickens! And it was amusing to me.
I had to stop taking lunch because my mother was very concerned about refrigeration/food poisoning issues, so not only was the only kind of sandwich I was allowed peanut butter, she froze my Hi-C drink in some sort of tupperware container to keep everything (which was basically a peanut butter sandwich with no jelly and possibly applesauce or canned pears) cold. And it would melt and leave little Hi-C drops on the bread somehow, even though they were in separate tupperware containers.
I had a sandwich, a piece of fruit, a bag of chips, and cookies for lunch pretty much every day in high school. I would probably be perfectly happy eating that every day now, except it doesn't fit my current diet.
Scrappy's standard dinner sounds fantastic, btw.
I have started eating this chia seed custard concoction as my daily breakfast and it seems to be working out okay so far. I can make 8 servings at a time, which helps, but if I run out and find it difficult to make myself make another batch, well, historically that's when I run into trouble with these plans.
Sorry about the throat, meara. Chloraseptic?
Most bizzare dream last night. I got engaged to a guy I know from the dojo. He gave me a huge solitare diamond ring, set in yellow gold. I remember being very upset in the dream that he gave me a gold ring. If he knew me, he would know that I prefer silver or white gold.
Now, I have never had romantic thoughts about this guy in real life. He tends to be surrounded by train wreaks and he just got married. In the dream, I was aware that he was "supposedly" married, but I was more concerned about the ring being yellow gold.
WTF!!! I'm happily single and even if I had a guy, not sure if I want to get married again. If I did, I would want a non-classic ring, if we even did rings. And this guy...oh, heck no.
I think the dream is reminding you that you don't want to get married, Suzi.
My mother cooked a great deal of variety growing up, but when I was left to my own devices it was repetitive and never healthy. Now that I'm grown, it's a battle between the two.
Since I'm home most of the time now, I'm getting more variety in my meals, because it's something to do. When I was working I'd make something (soup, chili, lasagna, etc.) that I could take for lunch all week.
