Yankee Stadium (sort of)

Something you may not know about me: I like the Mariners. I’m a Mets fan first & foremost, but I like the Mariners a fair amount – though I don’t keep up nor watch their games since they’re hard to catch on the East Coast. Except when they come to NY (or NY goes there). In fact, the Seattle Mariners are the only team whose gear I’ve ever spent money on besides the Mets. I bought this t-shirt during my trip to Safeco last year. Oh, and I’ve been going to a Yankees/Mariners game once a year since 2002 or [...]
Bento with Hungry

You know what real friendship is? I’m learning every day how much some people mean to me, and how little other people mean. In any case, with regard to today’s post, this means that a friend of mine recently invited me to attend a press tour with her. Since it was scheduled for pre-lunchtime, we figured that we would be hungry afterwards… but she knew I would be in the middle of my Restaurant Hiatus at that time. So she suggested we bring a lunch with us and eat it in the nearby park after the tour. Not just a [...]
Dater Mountain – Hiking Lunch

Recently, StB, C2, HB, BF and I drove upstate to Dater Mountain to hike. Unfortunately, it started raining just as we got there, and it was about noon, so we sat in the car and ate the lunches we’d brought. I took this opportunity to pack something cute for the BF… because I’m nutty like that. He agreed… because he loves me I’m sure I’ve mentioned many, many, many… many many times in the past, that BF is a man of simple tastes. So while I made it cute, I didn’t make it fancy. White bread layered with Boar’s Head [...]

As mentioned last time, BlindBaker and I are taking turns making bento for each other. But that’s only Monday/Wednesdays, so what about the rest of the week? On Mondays, I actually have class until 9pm, so I need to also bring dinner; Tuesdays, I “only” have class from 1-5, so I usually eat at home… but on Thursdays, I have class from 10-4, with only a 20 minute break from 12:50 – 1:10, during which time I have to walk from the western side of campus to the northeastern side, anyway. Basically, I need to bring food to inhale, or [...]

The BlindBaker and I actually have classes together this semester, Monday through Thursday, including chemistry. When we registered, since chemistry sounded like a class I would struggle with, I asked her if she wanted to form a study group with me, and she agreed. Then we realized that the way our schedules were structured, we’d be eating lunch together a lot… and I hate eating on campus. The cafeteria is disgusting (all fried, fatty, bad for you foods). Eating off campus is possible, given the large gap of time between classes, but it gets expensive. So it dawned on me… [...]
