A co-worker was walking by my office, and noticed a red pepper on the floor.
CW: Amy, why is there a pepper on the floor?
Me: I brought it for lunch.
CW: (looks into my bag) Oh did, you go grocery shopping?
Me: No, thats much lunch.
In her defence, my bag pretty much looked like the produce aisle. You see, I didn't have any leftovers to bring for lunch (my go-to) so I grabbed some veggies, a few mini pitas and some hummus for lunch. I didn't have time to prep them, so I just brought them whole.
My lunch was delicious. 1/2 a red pepper, 1.2 a cucumber, 8 mini pitas, 1oz old cheddar, 2 tbsp Sabra Red Pepper Hummus.
So, what kind of bag do I bring to work? I'm embarassed to admit, but I tote around this reusable shopping bag from RW&Co. Its big enough to fit my gym clothes, shoes and lunch.
And some random things on the bottom: nail polish, a cheapy set of pearls, orange, banana, a "just in case" can of soup, tampons, hair elastics, the cover for my umbrella, house/car keys, a head band, 3 tubes of chap stick, a guest pass for a gym, a package of light hot chocolate, the manual for my new Mp3 Player, some work forms, 4 pens and some cutlery. Bottom line, I think I need a better/more stylish bag that dosn't expose my peppers to the world! :)

Ha that's what I do! I pack around my Safeway recycle bag all over the place, complete with food, tampons, workout gear, etc...We're stylish!
Lululemon bags and big and nice. They have all these little pockets in the bag to keep you organized. I strong recommend these gym/purse bgs.
My lunch bag looks similar. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do!
Ha ha! Amy, stop flashing your peppers! Get a proper bag! Lululemon ones ARE actually nice, especially if you're looking for something bigger than a traditional gym bag. I also love my Crumpler bag!
lunch looked great!
Your bag is hilarious! What a hodge podge of stuff!!
Your lunch looks really good.I need to think outside the box every once in awhile for lunch...
Did u ever find the bag you wanted from lulu? and if so, why hasn't Andrew procured it for you yet? :)
wow your lunch looks divine!!!
My lunchbox is typically my purse or a plastic bag! lol
Sadly, my purse looks like this haha Fancy.
I do the same thing!!!! Lunch looks good, anyway!
When I worked at Home Depot before they gave me this canvas tote bag that was tan with orange straps and said "Home Depot" on the front. I used that for a lunch bag the whole time I worked there..lol.
WOW!! That is a lot of food. You are really prepared. lol
I used a bag like that for my lunch... instead of being from RW though it's from Lulu. Plus I have a bunch of smaller bags made out of the same type of material that I will throw my lunch in and then throw that bag into the bigger carry all.
I figure the shops give us the bags to reuse, and I am going to use them!
I actually have nicer (aka REAL) purse type bags and I never use them. I always revert back to the reusable ones!
