Weirdly, the post just came, and with it a brown paper package filled with something feeling remarkably like sugar has just come through the door. For real.
I got a brown (cardboard) package through my door today, called a Graze box. Not sure if it's a good thing or a total waste of cash. However, it was under £4 (well, this one was free) and will be my lunch for teh next 2 days..... a bargain? Hmmm, but at least I'll be making the effort to eat.
A Graze box has 4 little compartments for 'wholesome' goodies. I have 3 tiny flapjacks, some assorted seeds, and 2 pots of dried fruits, one has chocolate drops in too
They post them to me each week (this is box number 1), filling it with whatever I've ticked on their list.
I am desperate to dive in and stuff the lot, but the purpose is to actually eat something while at work - esp. Thursday when I'm out for 13/14 hours.....
Don't think rabbit food - this is my version of a good night down the pub!
Not bad Nathan, though I'd be all about the marmite. I have major issues with marmite. I actually carry a jar around with me. And no wine gums. They make me feel really weird and pull a stupid reflex face as soon as I chew. As soon as I put one in my mouth, people laugh at me, so I don't.

What, a drugs mule???New comment
Ha. Shame on you!New comment
And I thought you were going off somewhere warm and exotic like the Caribean or Columbia!New comment
I might make it as far as Devon.New comment
I'm sure I'm right in saying that you don't need a passport for Devon! However I could be wrong?New comment
No, you're right. Though I do need a passport to buy supermarket wine in Devon apparently. Seems I look ten years younger out in the country.New comment
Kilos of white powder and the need for a passport? Your sherbert fountain stockpiling knows no bounds or at least policed frontiers.New comment
You got me Ol. I am trafficking sherbert fountains.
An ineffectual scheme however, what with my propensity for indulgence in the goods.

Yes, my diet of licorice sticks coated in the good stuff does wonders for my skin-tone.New comment

I have some very odd friends. Wonderful, but odd.

A graze box??
Ok.
Intriguing.
Mine was a bag of black rice all the way from Manchester; ha ha.
I guess when my mate served me purple rice last weekend it's possible that I might have been a little over-excited by it... maybe.

Ooh, that sounds cool. Right up my street.
I'd never had black rice before. When you add it to white rice it turns the white rice purple. It's full of goodness too, apparently.
I like stuff like that. I'm very child-like.

Innocent and charming for it, Rosie.
This graze box sounds like an organic veg box for office workers it obviously designed to stop you eating chocolate and sweets etc but does it work?
If you had one Rosie there'd be no more Sherbet Fountains for you my girl!
New comment
I would fill the compartments as follows:
Sherbert
Licorice stick cut into chunks so it fits
Pickled gherkins
Raisins.
With a glass of wine, ha ha.
New comment
Like it!
Mine;
Wine gums
Smokey Bacon Walkers
Bovril toast
Coca Cola (glass bottle)
New comment
Oh and a bottle of Havana Club to go with the coke.New comment
Some compartments include a toffee dip
I wish the box was as big as the letter box, not just sized to fit through it

And a toffee dip? Well now we're talking!
