I have three main places where I do the business of being a
professional organizer: at the home or office of a client, in my car getting to and from my client, and in my home office. On days when I am mostly working at home, I take time out of my day to make a healthy lunch. Access to my fridge and kitchen during the work day is one of the definite perks of operating a business from home. I really like to eat salads, because they are a lot of food but also good for you. The kinds of salads I like have lots of ingredients that require chopping. And even though I do take the time to make a salad and sit down and eat it, I don't want to be prepping for half an hour every day. So, on Sundays, I set aside some time for chopping, fill up several plastic storage containers with veggies, and then when I'm putting together lunch during the week my refrigerator becomes an in-home salad bar.
Things I like to chop and eat:
- Cucumbers
- Black olives
- Green onions
- Bell peppers
- Mushrooms
- Tomatoes (though I never do these in advance, as they don't keep well in the fridge)
- Lettuce
Things I like to prep and eat:
- Garbanzo beans or black beans
- Homemade salad dressing (oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, some fresh herbs if I have any)
