Even when I had one of those 9 to 5 jobs, I wasn't a luncher. I found lunches to be a waste of a) time (especially since I didn't perk up until people started going on their lunch breaks) and b) money (seriously--who wants to invest $75 a week on overpriced sandwiches?). I'll stick with my PB&J, thankyouverymuch.
Even now, I don't get out much for lunch, simply because it occurs around the same time my brain begins to function properly, and I like to take advantage of any and all times my weary brain functions properly. But today, one of my new favorite people, Kathianne (be sure to check out her fabulous blog), and I decided to get dolled up for lunch and pretend--if just for a day--to be ladies of leisure. An illusion that was quickly shattered once we realized the restaurant we'd plan to patronize didn't actually serve lunch, and we ended up walking several blocks down Peachtree in the 90 degree heat to find a suitable meal.
Which we thoroughly enjoyed--ice water and all (we are, after all, ladies on a budget).

It was a great lunch! I still can't believe we have similar 1920's rings. I need a photo of them both and write something about the serendipity of that for my blog. : )
