Rate my lunch

[L107ANGEL]

Just checking in. Believe it or not, real life gets in the way sometimes. I had to run a bunch of errands today, so no time for a lunch presentation. It was kind of funny, though, because I ate lunch out, (no, I didn't have my camera with me), and when the waitress set my lunch down in front of me, the first thing I though was- what a great photo this would make! The french fries were crinklecut and cooked to perfection, and there were SO many of them. It would have been an awesome photo!

Don't get your knickers in a twist. Tomorrow's lunch presentation will be worth the wait.

Hmph!! How dare you have a life

Makes me think of the men and women out there who HAVE to eat these.

Exactly.

I will try to start posting my meals here. Lunch will have to be posted at night as I have no way to post them during the day. I will try to make the presentation nice for you all, but please understand that I eat at my desk for lunch and dinner is eaten on the couch.

 

[LiteBrite]

Right on, Merle. Looking forward to it.

Right on, Merle. Looking forward to it.

And Luvflorida, I thought of you yesterday when I looked at the Target ad and they have pumpkin Peeps on sale this week.

Ok folks, I think we're losing steam here . Not only did I make a homecooked meal after working today I photographed it to boot so gosh darnit I'm posting it . It's southwest chicken chili with cornbread (homemade thank you very much). I looked around for a beer in the frig but I must have used the last to make stew over the weekend. I threw the Kit Kat in at the last minute. Don't want to lose those dessert points . I have no intention of eating it though - it's a crime to ruin lovely chocolate by adding milk .

Well, I had a drink tonight, so I'll go easy on you... I must deduct a point for the drink...is that plain water without even ice? You're not actually going to eat the pumpkin, are you? I'll give you a 9--looks tasty!

You're the COOLEST, T&B!

Oh, I tried to warn a newbie to stay away from you, but he/she did not respond. Hey, maybe I should mention YOU on Paige's "which DISers scare you" thread......

not bad, not bad....not a fan of southwestern chicken chili but it looks good HOWEVER, I am disturbed and somewhat distracted by that white fluffy stuff coming out of the one piece of cornbread You get an 8.5.....tuck in the white stuff and I'll give ya a 9

Mmmmmm, now that's what I'm talking about!!

I'm gonna have to deduct a point for that bruise on the pumpkin; you should have turned it around to the back. And the KitKat chunky should have just been a regular KitKat....the chocolate to wafer ratio is much more favorable in a regular bar (-1 for that also). The chili and cornbread look scrumptious, though. So overall, I'd give you an 8! Well done, CEDmom!

It needs a bit more color and you forgot the bendy straw so 8.5 from me. Excellent effort. I didn't eat lunch today to post. I swear, I'll try tomorrow.

It's actually my DH's dinner that I took the picture of. He doesn't like ice. Oh, and I wouldn't necessarily put it past him to eat the pumpkin - he's a human garbage can

The fluffy stuff is Smart Beat margarine - it's very pale yellow. The corn bread was a bit dry (won't use that recipe again ) so it needed something to make it go down easier . The dryness didn't stop my DH from finishing that and having more .

Mmmmmm, now that's what I'm talking about!!

You're right about the bruise I grab it at the last minute and didn't notice it. Sorry, but my DH will argue the virtues of the chunky Kit Kat . The chili was really good if I do say so myself. Very quick too .


Wow, I figured out how to multi-quote all by myself

Nice!!!

The beverage is lacking, though. You at least need some ice in it. Deduct half a point for no ice.

And the pumpkin actually distracts from the presentation, rather than add to it. Or is the pumpkin your vegetable course? Either way I'm deducting half a point.

And I'm wondering about your eating surface. Is that the floor? Interesting.

Total score is 9.0 & that ain't bad.

 

[bigmerle1966]

Alright here is my dinner, please remember I don't sit at the table for dinner, so I used the counter for photographing.

Dinner was a grilled buffalo chicken sandwich, made with leftover chicken, bleu cheese, provolone, Frank's hot sauce, and bacon on whole wheat bread, oven roasted potatoes with ketchup and a Diet Pepsi Jazz- strawberries and cream. Please note the "china" I used, which I took a pic of first so that you could get the full effect. Dessert was a Entennmens Chocolate donut eaten at the computer while I Dis'sed. No bendy straw, I was to hungry to go downstairs and get one.

 

[sugarpie]

BM66 - I love the china! It's fabulous!

I'm not loving the beverage. Diet Pepsi is good, but this is not. Deduct half a pint for lack of non-funky flavored soda.

The ketchup on the potatoes is overkill. Deduct half a point.

Dessert looks good. Definitely need milk to go with it, though.

All in all, pretty good. Total score 9.0.
