lunch box


I always forget that "the simple things in life" can be more than just cropped pants and tailored jackets. Reading in a big armchair instead of going out, english breakfast tea instead of complicated, brewed chai (as much as I love it, there's nothing like dunking a tea bag into some water and calling it a day when you're too tired to do much else), and a simple lunch in a simple box. It's like being back at school again, where lunch time wasn't the frenetic mess that it is now, 30 minutes of frantic scurrying to and fro trying to make your pennies stretch extra far, where the time flies and you end up dumping half of that curry in the bin as you rush back to work or uni. Not that school was all about leisurely lunches, with meetings and training and lessons and - most importantly - play to be done the best thing about it was how you didn't have to think and could just pull out your lunch box, grab that vegemite sandwich and apple and leave it at that. Sure, this looks a little bit more fancy (is that rocket I spy?) with a peach and a cute little brown chinese takeaway box and string. But it bears thinking, wouldn't it be just grand to save that hassle this semester at uni and just bring packed lunches? Even if it does mean getting up a little bit earlier so I can get it all done. I'm sick of making impulse food choices at the expensive cafes around uni. Time for a return to the lunch box!
