18 & 19 - tis the season

Last weekend thru the first part of last week was a complete blur. I think it was the flu bug going around, but I was in bed with a 102 fever for 3-4 days. The lunches below were packed for Tuesday and Wednesday, both which I ended up calling in sick because I was so dizzy from all the heat and dehydration. Ok, enough about something completely not related bento... here they are! I wish I had a more exciting reason for the lack of posts, like I was whisked away to a romantic getaway to Paris but... nupe... just the flu. BLAH!

I am hoping this week will be a more promising week for lunches! I need to stock up on more chinese veggies for this week. They are almost my staple everyday. I usually just saute it with a bit of olive oil, minced garlic and salt.. that's it! Simple and delicious. hong-kong style egg noodles with chicken and bell peppers; sauteed chinese broccoli

#13 - ugh

Here's to another beginning to the work week! This past week has not been my best. The first part of last week was spend battling the stomach bug, and the second part to an ear infection. Won-der-ful! Hopefully, the ear infection will go away in another couple of days... until then, here's to ringing ears and dull pain.
