I had a meeting at work this afternoon and was hungry (story of my life) and I was running late (the sequel to story of my life). Since I wanted a “real lunch” as soon as I was done I decided to grab a veggie to keep my stomach quiet until then.
Did you know you’re supposed to eat bell peppers like apples?!
No of course you didn’t, because that’s weird. Biting right into it felt gross and messy, so I ended up cutting strips. Good thing because I ate it in the car!
Post-meeting I came home to my favorite lunch these days. I don’t need variety. I just need what I love: 
Exhibit B:
Mr. Arnold T. Bread personally sent me an amazing care package today. As I always, I showed no restraint in grabbing it out of the UPS guys hands and ripping it open.
They have sandwich Mini’s now!!!
Perfect! So, now I can have 4 open faced sunflower butter and chocolate chip melty treats! 
Tomorrow is National Watermelon Day! Any suggestions on how I should celebrate?! (Besides eating an entire watermelon?!)
P.S. The next Ask a Monican is coming tonight!
I’m not a big pepper fan, especially not in salads.
Oh those ARE mini. I think they’re adorable but I think I’d need to eat like 18 to feel satisfied!
I MUST try eating a big bell pepper that way! I love munching on mini bells like that.
I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT NATIONAL WATERMELON DAY!!!! super pumped and obviously i was going to eat it, but now i feel a compulsion to finish it off and buy a new one…in celebration of course 🙂
I love bell peppers and sometimes when I’m hungry, I am also tempted to just bite into them. Must get those mini’s now 🙂
Has Ben been losing weight?! He looked great before but looks even better now! Tell him congrats if he is, and if he hasn’t tell him congrats still!! =)
Yes, Ben has lost some weight!
they have minis!! mini versions of anything rule in my book and I had the same thought, now I can have more!
what does it say on your shirt?
It has the name of my gym. I don’t want to put it up since RER is my thing and not representative of them 🙂
I saw the minis at my local grocery store and could not understand the need for the two little ones instead of a regular sandwich thin. Now I get it – they are for more sunflower seed butter! 🙂
Ohh bell peppers, my love
I don’t think I could ever just bite into a bell pepper like an apple…
I know I’m a hardcore veggie eater and all, that that’s just a little too crazy for me
Watermelon mojitos! Watermelon margies! Watermelon salad! So many things to do with the yummy fruit!
Besides the fact that I don’t like green bell peppers, bell peppers of any kind give me major bloating issues.
I like eating bell peppers in strips. Especially with guacamole!!
I just discovered the Sandwich Thin Mini’s too! They’re adorable, but I’m with you. It just means I eat twice as many!
Haha I love how you think- now you can eat four 🙂
MUST GET!
Oh my lordy.
I love small things.
It means more small things all together and more eating time!
I must try them. (:
that first picture totally cracked me up! 🙂
I totally used to eat bell peppers like apples. Still do every now and then. 😛
Cut a sandia in half, eat the inside of one, then fill it with watermelon margarita and drink iit straight from the rind.
Hahah, I thought you were serious about eating it like an apple at first! I always cut mine into strips too 🙂
My 5 year old eats bell peppers like they are apples!! I can’t do it, I am a strips kinda girl (double entendre intentional)!!!!
Okay yes, I totally had to look up how to spell entendre, my degree is not in English, sue me!
I think you should A. eat watermelon (duh) B. wear watermelon scent C. wear watermelon colored clothes D. give free watermelon to all your training clients E. (The best idea) Drink watermelon flavored alcoholic beverages!!!!!
grill it like mama pea did!!!
Have you looked at Mama Pea’s post today? Watermelon burgers..
Hahaha, funny you think eating a bell pepper like that is weird because I definitely do too but that is the way my boyfriend eats them! It’s so odd when he does that, plus he loves green peppers, which to me = death/bleach.
So… they took a sandwich product which was designed to be smaller… and made it smaller? Bet the marketer who thought of that got a lot of high fives in the office that day.
Bell peppers are botanically fruits, but are generally considered in culinary contexts to be vegetables. (Wikipedia)
I just found out earlier in the week!!!
Sorry about the icky sticky govt letter. 🙁 No fun.
