this year for christmas, i bought mz the weirdest present ever...tupperware. now granted it was just a small portion of his christmas presents, but i was REALLY excited about this purchase...so much so that i had to buy some for myself too!
can you think of anything nerdier?!
i was passing through macy's on my way out of the mall, with zero intention of even focusing my eyes on any of the stuff they have in there, when a martha stewart display caught my eye. i had a plan to start bringing lunch in 2012 and martha was giving me just the extra push of motivation i needed!! she brought this great system (Sistema) from new zealand, slapped her brand on it and i'm sure both companies are making a pretty penny right now.
here are the pieces that i purchased...and have been seriously obsessed with since the very first time i used them. chances are if you comment on my sistema ware in the cafeteria i'll go into infomercial mode and tell you how phenomenal they are...you've been warned. they really make me excited to make/eat lunch every day!
sandwich container: this bad boy has a spot for your sandwich and two smaller compartments for treats or other snacks...and there's a divider between both halves to keep everything nice and tidy.
salad container: the fork and knife are in 2 pieces each and they SNAP IN to the bottom of the tray that's in the container!! how great is that!? there's also a cup for dressing. i also have found myself using this container on occasion to tote leftover quesadillas...'dillas on the bottom, tomatoes, guac and beans on the top tray and a little sour cream in the dressing cup.
breakfast or soup: again, the spoon snaps in just like the salad container. my favorite use for this is some outta this world
barefoot contessa granola (with better dried fruits than cherries, ick) and either milk or yogurt...the tray ensures that your granola doesn't get soggy before you get a chance to devour it!
okay, who's hungry now!?
