Thoughts of Google+ Hangouts and Salad-in-a-Jar

Thoughts of Google+ Hangouts and Salad-in-a-Jar

Last night on Lounging with LannaLee we hung out with Google+ Hangouts. And it was so much fun, I’m going to give it a go for almost every Sunday night in April and May.

A Google+ Hangout is where 2 or more people get together to video chat through the Google+ Hangouts; a video conference. It’s easy to use and its free.

Here is what we did!

The best part is, Google+ now allows people to publish the Hangouts LIVE – in Hangouts On Air, so other people can watch them WHILE you are recording it. JUST LIKE A TV show. Seriously. A little TV show on the internet. And that’s what we did last night. Granted, our TV show had low budgets and no writers, but its format was very similar to a talk show. Even better, the show got published directly to my YouTube account, so people can watch it later [Case in point – the embed above]. Amazing. Living in the future and all that rot.

I’ve been wanting to do my own Google+ Hangouts On Air for a while and now that I know HOW FREAKING EASY they are, I am all for it. So I’ll do a two month trial. And it will be good. I WILL NEED GUESTS, keep your eyes peeled here and on Lounging with LannaLee website for more details. If it goes well, I’ll keep going.

And now about the SALAD.

Salad-in-a-Jar Day 10

Salad-in-a-Jar Day 10

Here is Salad-in-a-Jar after being vacuum-packed for 10 DAYS, from May 10th to May 20th. TEN DAYS, people.

Look at that. Fresh as a daisy.

Regarding salad for a week, I have had salad for lunch every day this week (so far). When I planned this I forgot that I will be having lunch with my Mom and one of my cousins tomorrow. (I hope Mom is making lunch). So I will be eating whatever Mom is serving. And I will try the salad-for-lunch every day NEXT week.

I’ve been enjoying the salads every day. I mix up the meat between steak and chicken and NO MEAT (like on Monday), and the dressings; that has satisfied my need for variety nicely.

I am not sure I’ll be able to maintain the salad-for-lunch every day thing. And that’s okay. I do think I’ll be able to eat more salads, and that is always a good thing. Because I like salads. And apparently they’re good for me.

That is all.
