Yesterday at lunchtime I was getting so hungry and I so badly wanted to order some Chinese food for myself. And it just so happened, my friend in South Carolina, Tsoniki, of Me Being Crafty, was Twittering the same exact thought!

I’ve got a wee bit of money in PayPal, so I could easily order myself something. But, I’ve got bills due. Bills that I haven’t enough to pay. So what does it matter, anyway? Oh me, oh my – I’ve been listening to someone saying those words for too long! I’ve made them my own! Ack! Banish thee, financially irresponsible thoughts! Be gone from my level-headed head. (Level-headed? Ok, maybe no one ever went that far in descriptions of me, but, close – they came very close!)

So I dissuaded myself from the carefree spending of money on one’s self for lunch and went digging in the fridge to see what goodies I might find hiding in there! Gaze, thee, upon my sumptuous spread:

Gorgeous, isn’t it? I thought so. I was so intrigued by all of the color – that I just had to take a picture and show you! I’m doing a lot of that lately, because, I’m completely in love with my new camera.

I feel better knowing I didn’t give into spending that money, and I wound up with a perfectly lovely and delicious lunch! My eyeballs were definitely bigger than my stomach – I definitely couldn’t finish all of it. That’s okay, though, because, they were all leftovers.
