Couldn't miss Bodhitree's last haul at the Union Square Greenmarket. Picked up these beautiful baby bok choy. How do you enjoy your choy?

I resist this as much as possible! But I think it's easier when you work at home and can eat in a different room.

I usually eat lunch at the table but sadly I've gotten into the habit of eating breakfast at my desk at home. It feels strange to eat by myself at the table in the morning.
