While jury duty is not how I would choose to spend a snowy day, it’s an interesting process—and of course it felt good to just get it done. Some people love jury duty, and maybe if I had a job working for someone else who paid my salary while I served, it would be less anxiety-provoking and more straight-up fascinating. That said, this is something a lot of small business owners and solo- deal with, so it was a good exercise in learning to be flexible. I actually got randomly selected for one trial but after some questioning was sent home at the end of the day and given my proof of service.
Food wise, I had no idea how the day would pan out, so I brought enough snacks to cobble together a balanced meal. I was glad I did—the weather was so crummy out I did not want to wander in search of la place to spend my lunch break. Again, practice at flexibility.
For this week’s What I Ate Wednesday post I’m sharing a look at what I ate through the day.
Breakfast: A breakfast salad with random veggies, avocado, and sauerkraut—sounds weird but it totally hit the spot
Snacks that turned out to be lunch: Sliced veggies, guacamole, turkey jerky, and I ended up buying a yogurt and stirring in a pack of this Hodgson Mill Flax Chia mix
Post-duty snack: Clood orange (that I didn’t eat during the day) and collagen hot cocoa
Dinner: Turkey soup from the freezer, leftover veggies & roasted purple sweet potato
Late-night snack: Greek yogurt (about 1/3 cup)
What are some of your favorite on-the-go snacks?

I have never had to do jury duty but I don’t think I would like it. Especially because I am self employed so no one would be paying me. LOL
Oh I’ve never been called in for jury duty and would not enjoy the change in my daily schedule. And lately I’ve been loving RX Bars and Larabars and greek yogurt as my favorite on the go snacks.
