A little part of the Big story.....fka "My Year to Thrive"

My favorite word in highschool was Lagniappe thanks to Dr. Sims. Lagniappe is 'a little something extra.' I just like the word and the french origin. Hope you enjoy a little something extra today!

Edamame

Is not the name of my muticultural friend. It is a vegetable. I don't know all the details and maybe I should have looked them up before dedicating a blog to the shiny green beans but I didn't. I have already wasted enough time this morning. Uh oh -it is no longer morning. This is really bad.
I had edamame for dinner lastnight. It was more of an 'I forgot to eat dinner and I might starve to death if I don't eat' dinner. For some reason my body is like a clock and at certain hours it eats no matter the feeling. I am trying to get better at this because it is alot more enjoyable just to eat when you are hungry. This is what I did lastnight. I was hungry and I made edamame. I made a little too much so I brought the remainder into the office for lunch. I am so impressed with my new, oh-so-healthy snack.
Everyone is looking at me funny and somewhat rudely. Maybe I should have brought more and shared. This would have been fine had I a wooden bowl and hte beans were still in their shells. That would have been a fun lunch sittin around, shooting the breeze, sucking on edamame beans. Very corporate America.
I am so excited about my new favorite. If you want to do something nice for me - take me to Genki on Roswell road and let's eat noodle bowls and edamame.
It's a great ice breaker for a first date because you are sucking on your food.
