Cooking Light’s September Lunch Issue

It’s September! You know what that means? Cooking Light’s September Lunch Issue and time to enjoy the fruits of my (our) labor during Cooking Light’s Great American Healthy Lunch Box Challenge. As one of 10 finalists, I received a Cooking Light Cookbook as well as a $100 Amex gift card, of which I shared a quarter with you in my 1st Blogiversary giveaway. Sweet! And as the winner of the Office Lunch Category, my lunch appears in this month’s issue of Cooking Light along with a pretty awesome Phineas and Ferb lunch from the school lunch category. Congrats to us!

So here it is. It’s pretty cool to see my lunch and name in print! It would have been sweet if my watermark weren’t cropped out and extra sweet if a link to my blog was included but as Little Sis reminded me “You should just be happy it’s in the magazine, Mommy!” and that I am.

Here’s a full picture of the winning lunch in my Lunchbots and a link to the post: NYC Post-Gluttony Lunch. What an odd title, right?

How sweet it was of my husband to bring home two copies of this issue the moment they hit the newsstands! And how sweet of the Cooking Light rep, Allison, to send me three copies of the issue in the mail. Do you think I should have one bronzed, lol?

How about this silly quick selfie of me because I really need to get this post out!?

Thanks so much for your support and for stopping by! Feel free to make my day by leaving me a comment, following my blog via email, on Facebook or on Instagram. The more the merrier!
