My second-to-last lunchbox to pack!!!
As this post publishes, I’m minutes away from giving my case study presentation. Despite being moderately outgoing, I REALLY don’t like public speaking!! I’m probably shaking in my boots Danskos! Not sure if I’ll get to eat this before or after (it’s a lunch presentation) or nibble my way through. Either way, it was a fun lunch!
This salad is a base of spinach, topped with frisee and dressed in Garlic Gold. Then topped with a small amount of Soy Boy tempeh, bell peppers, leftover brown rice, a blob of Sabra and some oregano and Crazy Salt. Delicccccious!
H2O Melon on the side…
And chocolate to calm my nerves!! Extra dark
Showcased on Karen’s chair!
I’ve got another hilarious Bear update for you guys, but you’ll have to wait until tomorrow for it 😉

lynn (The Actors Diet) says
by the time you read this, you’ll probably be done, but good luck with the presentation! i’m sure you did great. i always get nervous public speaking too – you’d think an actor would be okay with it but i never am. put me in front of a camera with lines to memorize and i’m good though!
Jen says
Good luck. I’m sure you’ll rock it 🙂
Katherine says
looking good; the blob of hummus is an excellent idea!
Therese says
Good luck with the presentation!!!
Laura @ youngDCliving says
I would have totally pegged you for the person who was totally comfortable speaking in public, that’s comforting to know. I hate them too! But I’m slowly getting better at it…you’re always more nervous before than during though–that’s the good part 😉
Jessica @ The Process of Healing says
Good luck! I HATE public speaking too!
Sarah R says
Good luck! Hope the chocolate helped calm your nerves. I can’t believe you are almost done! Yippee!
Brittany (a healthy slice of life) says
Good luck girl! You’ll nail it-no worries! 🙂
shannon (the daily balance) says
I love adding brown rice to salad! Great way to bulk it up — lentils are a great choice, too!
Courtney @ Sweet Tooth, Sweet Life says
How exciting!!!
Congrats, Kath! I’m sure it will all go perfect. 🙂
Joelle (The Pancake Girl) says
Be calm! All will work out juuust fine and as it should! Maybe you should have some more chocolate.. 😉 Have a great day!
Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) says
Dark chocolate is my favorite way to end a meal. Especially when it’s extra, extra dark. I found a 90% bar a couple weeks back that is absolutely delicious. But I think 85% is still my favorite. 😀
Hope the presentation went well! I’m not a fan of public speaking either, but usually after the first 5 minutes or so, it all kind of just comes together. 😀
Callie says
Good luck! You’ll do fine. 🙂
That looks like a good lunch, as always.
Taylor @ Changing Habits says

Veronica says
Congratulations, Kath! I’m sure your presentation is over with now, and you most likely rocked it! So excited for you because your internship is almost behind you! I start the internship application process in the fall, can’t wait until I’m done.
Kellie says
I hope your presentation went fantastic! Love the idea of rice in salad too. Never thought to try it.
Emily @ For Sweets Sake says
I hope the presentation went great today!! 🙂

I have to give two presentations within the first month of my new job in August! Kinda scary! I’m with you on the public speaking! I hope it went really well today!

Mastering Public Health says
Dark chocolate (even a very small amount) really does have soothing powers. Dagoba makes a bag of organic, Fair-Trade-certified 73% dark chocolate oversized chips called “Chocodrops” that do the trick at any time of day.
