What's for dinner?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Lunch at my desk today is a ZipLoc bag full of salad with Caesar dressing, a hard boiled egg, a thick slice of cheese (Havarti today, good English cheddar yesterday), hummus on good toast, and a plum for dessert. I won’t stay at my desk. After I eat, I always leave the office and walk outside. I’m next door to Washington Place, the governor’s house that used to be the Queen’s house a very long time ago. Just on the other side of that is the Episcopal Cathedral where I often go and sit outside by their beautiful fountain, or I go into the sanctuary and sit and meditate. I often go to the State Museum of Art, too, and on Fridays, there’s the Royal Hawaiian Band at Iolani Palace.
