Nuts About Tins

I packed all my clothes for the gym today but decided not to go. I've been nodding off at work all day due to the horrible 7 hours of sleep I had last night. Lets just say, there is definitely no energy left for the gym. The plan is more like leaving the clothes here for tomorrow and then heading straight home and into bed. I can't wait.

On another note: have you ever wondered how to bring a portion control of nuts to work? Well I love almonds, and I carry them in an empty, cleaned altoid tin.



The box is the perfect size for the 24 almonds in an ounce, giving me the perfect 160 calorie snack but with lots of filling fiber and protein (4g and 6g), AND 8% of my daily calcium. I plan to decorate my little tin and make it my own, like these great tins from makeitmyown.net.


Let me know if you have any great idea for transporting your snacks and lunchs to and fro. Until next time- it's nap time.
