Fail to Plan

Posted Aug 24 2010 8:51pm

I may be a spaz about a lot of things, but when it comes to my food I always plan, plan, plan when I know I’m busy!

I love the saying, “If you fail to plan, you’re planning to fail.”

And that often holds true for our meal and snack choices. If you don’t know what/when/how you’ll have access to food throughout the day you might end up having to make a meal out of vending machine options or spend way too much on crappy food.

Apparently there are even vending machines that will give ya pizza! Insane. WonderPizzaMachineSmall ( source )

In looking for pictures of a vending machine, I came upon one that dispenses running shoes! I wish. running shoevending-machine ( source )

Now, I may not pack the most appetizing looking lunch, but I get an “A” for effort since I really only have 2 minutes to throw everything in my lunch bag and get out the door. (Ben and I carpool so we make sure to leave extra early to get him to work and then me to school!)

Today’s lunch was a repeat of yesterday – leftover slaw, yogurt, cereal and an apple. Again, not all that amazing, but better than whatever I could get at the school caf, right? IMG_0720

I packed this Luna protein bar and carrots with bell peppers for a snack. I don’t like the protein Luna bars at all. I’ve tried two different flavors now and think they are both bad. Just my $0.02

When I got home I was super hungry and dove head first into the Food Should Taste Good Sweet Potato Chips (aka longest name of a snack food ever).

I went with something super quick for dinner – an egg and bean burrito. I reheated the leftover beans from last night, cooked up some chili killers and threw it in a tortilla. IMG_0724

Served with shredded cabbage and light ranch. IMG_0725

Once again I’m headed for the watermelon :)

Question: Truthfully, sometimes I wish I was more “go with the flow” about food stuff. Are you a planner or a go with the flow-er?
