Question of the Evening:
How awesome are QUESADILLAS?!?!?
My response: HOLY YUM!!!
Man, they are GOOD!
Tonight, Mal and I made quesadillas for dinner. We used our Griddler, which worked great to grill, melt, and warm our quesadillas to perfection!
Check out that melty cheese!
Inside was spinach, red onions, black beans, shredded cheese, and salsa. Delicious!
Lunch
I ate lunch at my desk today, which I really wanted to stop doing after starting my new job, but I suppose as long as it doesn’t happen too often, it’s okay, right?
Plus, I’m sure there will be days at this job where I won’t have a chance to leave my desk! I guess, I should be prepared for it!
Today’s lunch: Homemade salad with spinach, red peppers, cucumbers, red onions, snap peas, and sliced almonds.
Also: Liberte peach yogurt, which was very, very peachy! The smell (and flavor, a little bit) reminded me of those strong-smelling gummy peach rings.
Lunch finale: Vanilla Macadamia Luna Tea Cake, which I loved! (It’s the first one I’ve tried.) The tea cake was almost like a cookie– sweet, chewy, and topped with frosting!
Afternoon Snack
On my break, I popped into Tealuxe for some coconut-flavored tea, which was called Royal Coconut (bold pouchong tea flavored with fresh coconut). It was tasty, but the flavor was more “floral” than coconut. I’m not sure whether I will order it again.
With my tea, I snacked on some red grapes.
Benefits of Ceramic Mugs
Seeing this sign in the office kitchen today totally made my day!
(It was stuck to the coffee-maker.) I love that my new office is trying hard to be green!
Almost Friday, guys!
Good night!

Yeah, you can never go wrong with a quesadilla – so easy, full of melty gooey cheese, and you can put pretty much anything in them! Never thought to grill them like that though, I usually bake mine.
Love those ‘dillas! I think it’s great your office is trying so hard to be green – hopefully more places will catch on soon!
I think it’s your griddler that made them extra good today! You can tell they are super crispy on teh outside.
I love Tealuxe!!!! I like how they have a wide variety of sweeteners available.
Yummy looking quesedilla! Yay for Mexican! I just had a burrito! I only use mugs at work too! They actually completely got rid of paper products for the environment.
The luna tea cake sounds really good! I’l have to try it

@Jen: Hannafords, but I think Whole Foods may sell it, too… well, I think I’ve seen it there?
I love how green your office is- in mine we go through cups like crazy because the only sink is in the bathroom and its gnarly…
Wow that quesadilla looks soo good. Love that your office is going green. I wish more people in my office would do the same!
I love that your office is green too – they use STYROFOAM cups at my office. Disgusting.
The lighting in your new office looks nice! Your pictures are so sharp!
Your case-ah-dillahs are gorgeous!
Did anyone catch you taking pictures of the coffee maker???
In answer to the evening’s question: quesadillas are one of my go-to meals – love ‘em! There are so many variations to play around with in terms of ingredients.
Ha, I went through a period in high school where I ate quesadillas every single day, and so I try to stay away from them now lest I slip back into that habit! But they are def. delicious… I like ‘em grilled, too!
Your quesadilla looks so good! I love that sign on your coffee pot at work. I might make one for my office!
