Lunch
Now back to your regularly scheduled blogging!
Lunch today included a super-green lettuceless salad.
Lots o' Greens
In the mix was:
- 1 large cucumber, sliced
- 1 medium green pepper, sliced
- Leftover roasted Brussels sprouts
- Feta cheese
- Balsamic vinegar + olive oil
On the side I enjoyed a crisp apple and a cup of Chobani strawberry banana Greek yogurt.
An Apple a Day
Yogi Yog
The Spread
I loved all the random flavors in this lunch!
Purse Scavenger Hunt
During my bridal shower last Sunday, one of the games my sister organized was a purse scavenger hunt. We quickly found out that many of us carry some pretty random things in our purses!
One of my friends actually had seven different kinds of lip gloss in her purse!
I thought it might be fun to do a little purse scavenger hunt on the ol’ blog today, but since you probably don’t want to go through a checklist of items, we’ll just keep it limited to this question:
What is the strangest thing you have in your purse today?
Mine is definitely the book Wedding Etiquette for Dummies. I checked it out from the library and it’s due back today, so I’ve been lugging it around all day!
I'm a Bag Lady
My second place item would have to be a pair of men’s socks. Don’t ask…
Now it’s your turn! Share away, my friends! 😀

I try and keep my purse fairly neat.. Although I often find really random stuff.. Right now I have the essentials. wallet,, metro-card, bus ticket, lip gloss and cell…
A bag of cereal 😉 and SOCKS too. I work in Manhatten and we are getting one nasty storm! I brought a change of socks with me in case my big hunter boots didnt keep them dry!
You’re lunch looks great!
The strangest thing would have to be receipts from the Coach Factory store in Las Vegas. I just came back from a trip with my girlfriends (for her bachelorette party!) and I have wanted a Coach purse so badly and got a steal of a deal. I’m keeping it with me to show off to everyone how much money I saved!!! 🙂
I have wallet, mini organizer, chapstick, kleenex, sunglasses, headphones for my MP3 player (which the MP3 player is sitting on my desk as I use a different headset at work to listen to music), and my Ventolin Inhaler. Sorry nothing to odd for me…
strangest thing would be tanning goggles .
I would say earplugs or Tabasco sauce. Earplugs because sometimes I have to sleep with them and Tabasco because I like my food spicy.
I have a voice recorder because I had to record some interviews for class.
Golf ball and dental floss. I think it’s because I have a big purse so I think that’s a good reason to throw whatever I want in there 😉
i keep a “floss card” in my wallet!
What a fun idea 🙂
The strangest thing in my purse right now is a packet of Earl Grey tea. Borrrring!
3 pairs of headphones (iPhone, gym, and BB)
i have my vibrams in my purse…woohoo! super cool 🙂
Um…I guess it’d have to be the boxcutter/x-acto knife. I was bringing it back to the office after using it for a craft at home, haha.
Hmm, I don’t even carry a purse to work; I use a backpack and there is nothing interesting in there. I used to carry a bag and a purse but then one time the bus I was riding took an abrupt stop and the contents of my bag flew all over the bus. So, after that I’m careful to only carry bags that zip and that don’t have embarrassing things in them. I leave my purse at home and just carry my wallet.
2 Silica gel packets. Not on purpose… wouldn’t that be weird if I had a thing about keeping my purse fresh?
I have to say – the Men’s Socks make WAY less sense than the Etiquette book. 😉
Girrrlfrienddd- you’ve GOT to tell us where you found that amazing peachy-orange top from this morning’s post!?!
Marshall’s for $15! 🙂
I don’t have much for you except for an unopened toothbrush. Instead of packing my regular one for vacation, I just grabbed a new one!
Well, I’m using my son’s diaper bag as my purse right now, so I’d have to say the strangest thing I carry around is a case of baby wipes!
Ahh I have SO much crap in my purse! My husband hates going through it. It’s such a mess.
oohhllyyhhoo – I got it from Marshall’s for $15!
toothpaste & greenfood powder. i like to be prepared 🙂
Today I’m carrying a wristlet, so I have just the necessities with me. I don’t have any strange items in my regular purse, but my biggest pet peeve item that I have are the receipts! I usually throw all grocery store, gas station, etc receipts straight in there until things become too messy.
I have an umbrella (forecast for the next week: sunny…) and anti-itch cream. I had over 20 mosquito bites a couple weeks ago and I guess my cream is still hanging around in my purse, ha!
Someone referred to my purse as a “tool box” the other day. I found that pretty entertaining. I have an Epi Pen (I’m allergic to everything!) and two pocket knives… I’m not sure why I need two!
you’re like miss fix it!
Mini lint roller and red pepper flakes! Was kind of surprised that these are the weirdest items I’m currently toting . . . I carry EVERYTHING possible in my humongous bags. Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Bags are ideal for overly-prepared people like myself.
I actually just cleaned out my purse a few days ago — but I do have a hardboiled egg in there 🙂
I found a randomn unshelled peanut just yesterday. I think it was from the baseball game I went to over the weekend… apparently I missed my mouth?
umm i have a couple of screw drivers in mine… LOL .. got them free from work the other day and haven’t remembered to actually take them out and put in my tool box at home.
Tweezers and my motion sickness arm bands are probably the strangest.
I don’t have anything super random in my purse today…just A LOT of stuff! For instance, why do I have 12 tampons in there? Am I going camping? Do I need to build a flotation device? Who knows, haha!!!
omg lol!
2 golf balls and a $0.30 game voucher from a casino trip back on July 29th
I have EIGHT shades of lipgloss. I win 😉
winner, winner, chicken dinner!
Neat book! I read a bunch like that when I was getting married. And I think I have about seven lipglosses in my purse too lol.
I actually played that game at one of my bridal showers and I won! Right now I have a smaller purse than usual and I think the weirdest thing I have is actually a copy of the children’s book A Little Princess. I have always loved the movie and decided to read the book and have been carrying it around to read when I get a chance.
I have an old baby picture of myself crumbled in the side pocket for some strange reason…..
8 packets of Splenda. I horde them like crazy every time I go to a coffee shop.
my bag is a complete mess. the contents have reached grandma-bag status.
most random…a tea bag. it was given out at a high tea i went to months ago…it’s been in my bag ever since.
I have to keep my bag small or I will carry everything, kitchen sink included. I don’t really have any thing to strange, do batteries count? I do have your friend beat though, I counted 14 lip glosses. I don’t know why I have so many 😉
This has nothing to do with today’s blog, but I stumbled across the recipe and immediately thought of you:
http://www.food.com/recipe/weight-watchers-pumpkin-cupcakes-329041
This is my first time posting. I love this blog 🙂 Thank you for all of your hard work!
YUM! i actually made a recipe similar to this but for pumpkin spice cookies (check the recipe section of the blog if you’re interested!) – they’re ryan’s favs!
Lettuce is overrated!
well, i don’t bring a purse to campus (grad student), just my backpack, but i have a little wristlet with essentials like gum, tylenol, etc. i always keep a mini toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss in there… cause you never know when you’re gonna need it! 🙂
That is the BEST Chobani..and I have you to thank for finding it! I would of never looked for it- I always just got the 12 pack from BJ’s, but that doesn’t include this delicious flavor!!
And, as for my purse, the most random thing: hairspray..but I guess that’s not so random 😀
Sadly, I thought all I had to report was that I have a spoon in my purse. But then, I saw another spoon. And then, ANOTHER spoon. Not even kidding – I have 3 spoons in my purse – and they’re not plastic!
BEST ANSWER EVER. 😀 too funny!
Fun game!
I have a tube of Tide To Go, a packet of VIA instant coffee and some fingernail glue (but no fake figernails!). Oh and about 35 bobby pins.
is the sock by any chance used to hold your apple in so it doesn’t get dirty?
no but i love that idea!
I’m a minimalist, so nothing in there I don’t use all the time. So I guess the weirdest thing is a post-it with a list of to-do items.
a copy of a ration book from WWII time … from a museum over the weekend.
I love lettuceless salads. They are delicious! Cute purse! =)
I have a can of Fix-a-Flat in my purse. My boyfriend came to help me out this week when I was in a” flat tire jam”, and I forgot to put the extra one it in my trunk hehe. Oops! 🙂
I have a letter from my dad with random newspaper clippings that he sent me. That is probably the oddest thing in my purse. Or the countless empty gum packages because apparently I throw them in the bottom of my purse instead of actually disposing of them, lol.
I read that wedding etiquette book… I’m MOH next summer and found some neat stuff inside.
As for my purse…. well right now I have the latest Sophie Kinsella book (Mini Shopaholic), 6 lipglosses (horrible I know), my wallet, a toothbrush, floss and chapstick (I went to the dentist yesterday and loaded up on the “free treats”) glasses, two pairs of sunglasses, my daytime agenda, Vitamins, My Ipod, Gum, business cards, a reporters notebook, 3 pens and a black marker. No wonder my back hurts LOL!
