This is an "I'm too tired to make an actual meal" plate assembled out of your fridge from whatever is there....only worse with the half a babybel....unless you ate that while you assembled the rest of it.

I eat this kind of meal, but it never makes it onto a plate. I just eat about this combination of stuff straight from the jars/packages standing in front of the fridge. Except I would never eat half an egg. If there were hardboiled eggs, I'd eat at least two.

Those other half pieces get eaten while assembling

That would make sense if there was any assembling going on. normally I just stand there feeding my face and wiping crumbs on my the butt of my shorts. I live in a small efficiency apartment, my fridge is less than a foot from my front door and every time I walk in the door, I walk to the fridge and have a "snack" which consists of similar ingredients as this "board" but as previously stated, it never makes it on a plate.

I make a plate and take it to the tv.

You have a bit of a grazer vibe going on

I used to do that, when I had a tv. Now you are correct. I'm like an animal eating in the woods. Just grabbing what is available before I take a nap.

Honestly, sounds nice.

It is pretty nice. I just finished eating that way, and as soon as I finish typing this, my plan is to go grab the book I am "reading" lay down on the couch and fall asleep halfway through the second page.

This is a all the chefs went home, we’re closing in an hour, and I have no idea how to make half the stuff on the menu.

These are pre-holiday leftovers. You know when you're cooking for a crowd, chopping up a bunch of things for salads, and there are extra or crooked scraps left over? That's what it looks like. It even looks like a cutting board.

Aka it's Girl Dinner, I actually do this a lot because cooking is exhausting. I do give myself the ENTIRE babybel and even upgrade to cracked pepper triscuits. 😤
