UDON worry, be happy!
There’s no other way to put it: when it comes to preparing lunches, I am so LAZY!
Yes, I admit it: I’ve never been too fond of lunch. Even as a little girl, lunchtime at school just felt like a bore. There was nothing exciting about reaching into my lunch box, only to find a cold sandwich, a juice box, and packaged snacks.
I am still the same way today. Lunch cuts right in the middle of my working hours – and when you work as much as I do, time is precious! I can’t be bothered to prepare a nutritious, delicious meal – or can I?!
