My Type Of Lunch

IMG_7746 I don’t eat out for lunch very often when I’m at work. I try to go to the grocery store about every other week and get enough groceries to keep at work for me to have breakfast and lunch. I usually have cereal and milk for breakfast and either a salad or a Smart Ones frozen meal for lunch. While looking at a friend’s sister’s blog I found the blog of the author Jen Lancaster. She has written 3 books (w/ a 4th coming out in May) and I really wanted to read them when I heard what they were about.

So, on my lunch break I went to Half Price Books and they only had the third book, so I bought it and walked across the parking lot to Taco Cabana and got lunch. I got 2 tacos w/ chips and queso. The soft tortillas there are OUT OF THIS WORLD. They are so soft and light and fluffy and made while you watch. The queso and chips is also incredible. They also have a salsa bar, so I tried all 3 types of salsa. I sat there and read my book and ate my lunch and I enjoyed it SO MUCH. It was so nice to splurge a little on myself.

The book is called, “Such a Pretty Fat” (instead of such a pretty face) and is all about how she tries to lose weight. I was laughing SO HARD b/c she is so funny. I feel like the author and I could be best friends b/c we think so much alike. She is so sassy and fiesty and funny. However, I do have to warn you that if you are offended by bad language, then you probably shouldn't read them b/c she curses quite a bit.

Anyways, it was such a nice lunch to be away from work for a little while and to just enjoy some good food, a good book, and to be ALONE. WOO HOO! I need to have lunches like this more often.

TACO CABANA! I miss that place so much. It may be one of my main motivations for going back for a visit to Houston. I love the Cabana Bowl. Yummmm. I'm seriously salivating right now.
