Well, I went to Walmart, and found these neat little tupperware-like packages for lunch. One will fit a sandwich, the other will fit round crackers (quite perfectly I might add for the kind I like). And last is a rectangle one for whatever. I also found some neat drink things that have a frozen center to keep it cool. And last but not least, a lunch bag that fit it all perfectly.
Ok. So I made a sandwich. Unfortunately, I discovered that I did not have any mustard, so I had to use barbecue sauce. I stuck it in the freezer Sunday night. I also got crackers, and some pineapple slices and a fork. It put all of that in the fridge inside the lunch bag.
In the morning, I pulled out the sandwich, and moved it to the bag, and took off. Two and a half hours later, I got to my office. Pulled out the sandwich and gave it a little bend. Crack. Yeah, it was still frozen in the center. Luckily, I have a microwave at the office, so I nuked it for a bit. Other than that, my lunch idea worked out great. I also found another compartment under the lunch bag, where I will be keeping cookies for a little extra. Mmm… cookies.
So my idea needs a little rethinking. Instead, I am going to do this. The night before, I will move the sandwich to the refrigerator. This will give it extra thawing time, but still in a cool environment. I am testing this theory tomorrow. But there will still be a microwave present, just in case. Oh, and I finally found some mustard in little jars. Thank you Trisha. Well, I don’t know about this last Christmas, but Christmas’ past.
What did I do to deserve thanks? Is there another Trisha running around? Does she look like me? Maybe she is the nice side of me.
oh god, since when do you use the word ‘nuke’?
and Trisha, maybe you bought him little jars of mustard two Christmases ago?
I must have. This Christmas I should get him some Grey Poupon.
Sigh. You do not remember getting me the packages with meat, cheese, and crackers? It comes with little glass jars of mustard. You started the tradition. I’ve been getting them for a few years now.
Sorry, my memory is slipping. This place will do it to you. Come to think of it, we get that stuff at home too. Maybe that was the other Trish though. The not-forgetful one.
