I’m charging through my Monday here and it’s going fast. While I was getting my lunch photos ready for upload, I found all these photos of us from freshman year at Davidson. They had me chuckling 
Hope this photo album works…
I brought a slice of last night’s pizza for lunch today. The crust was still the best part
I also munched on a carrot
Devoured a pear in about 60 seconds
And loved chomping through this Chobani with Kashi GoLean
While it had all the components of a balanced lunch, this lunch wasn’t all that filling. I think I’m used to more voluminous lunches from home! I think I’ll be eating my LaraBar snack sooner rather than later…
Bites & Bowls & Tennis Balls
Kelsey started a blog! She was a ceramics major in college and has some awesome pieces of pottery that she is working to feature in her posts. And she’s an an amazing talent at recipe creation – but she needs to get more up! She’s just starting out, and I was going to wait a little longer to debut her on KERF, but she just blogged about our shared love for therapeutic tennis balls and I had to share
Guest Lunch Post: Scordo!
Vince over at Scordo.com sent over this delicious Italian lunch guest post! Thanks, Vince!
Hi Everyone. Vince from Scordo.com here and I’m terribly excited to do my first guest post on KathEats.com! Growing up as a first generation Italian-American, lunch was never the usual peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Instead, my mother, grandmother, aunts, etc. all took turns preparing elaborate multi-course lunches for me with the inevitable tableside conversations going something like, "what, aren’t you hungry, why don’t you want another slice of frittata?" or "what’s the matter, aren’t the zucchini fritters crispy enough for you, you only ate five?" – the Italian sounds more atagnostic, trust me!
25 years later, I’ve re-created a typical Saturday lunch meal, but scaled back the dishes to a few healthy representations of the typical, first generation, Italian-American lunch. Minus the sarcastic comments from the females relatives in my life, of course!
My lunch consisted of:
1. An angel hair, red onion, and homemade ricotta frittata
2. A fresh, whole milk, mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, and Provencal olive salad
3. Organic Persian cucumbers with freshly ground black pepper and balsamic vinegar.
I’ve got to get to some studying before the day runs out!

Those pics are so cute! You two look so young. Now I want to look back at my college pics and remember the “good old days” (haha).
Love the college pics! It makes me want to dig up some of mine, I’d have to scan them though!
And I totally want to be Italian after the guest post, nagging relatives or not!
Cute pictures! I LOVE looking through old pictures of my hubby and me, when we were dating. Good times. Your lunch looks great…too bad it wasn’t very filling.
Love the old pics!
Great guest post!
Off to check out the new blog!

I actually made some pesto this afternoon – I saw your pizza last night and it gave me a huge craving! I’m using it on pasta tonight (see my blog for pictures later) but as soon as I make a grocery run tomorrow, I’m making the pizza ASAP!
Your guest lunch looks really good too – I want to try a fritatta like that sometime.
Such a cute photo album – thanks for sharing it with us! I also really enjoyed your guest lunch post – so neat to see such a different combo of yummy foods!
I love that guest post! That’s a cool way to use leftovers!

I just found the suuuuper hidden fresh market to pick up barney butter.. I went crunchy… mmmm..mmmmm… I can’t wait to put it in my oats tomorrow!!!!!

Those pictures are great …made me smile. I wish they had Chobani out here in Cali. Have not found it in my area.
Trying to be good calorie-wish today as the chef has a Fat Tuesday dinner tomorrow. So back- to-back spinning classes.
Bon Ton Roulet!
Okay, am I the only one that thinks that the picture of the carrot is quite phallic?
ANYWAY! I thought of you today when I made my lunch. I have a white porcelain plate at work so that I’m not being wasteful and my plate looked very Kathlike-Turkey Sandwich with CranApple Butter, baby carrots, a sliced orange, and pretzel thins. It was a great lunch and the fact that it looked so pretty made me enjoy it
hey kath!!!! i’ve been reading your blog for EVER. literally about a year now. and have not once commented because you are like an idol to me hahah.
you inspired me to start my own blog about 2 months ago!
i don’t know why i haven’t commented on yours yet but i just want to thank you.
i was in recovery from an eating disorder this summer when i was reading your blog about every minute of the day.
seeing you living your happy and healthy lifestyle really gave me a new perspective!
you are so happy and full of life and i really admire you for it!
then i saw you went to davidson and remembered my dad saying a few of our really good family friends went there, both daughters and they loved it!
i’m going to elon next year, not quite near you but close enough..
i can’t thank you enough for being my inspiration and i just got the guts to comment!
