I can't quite call what I did "brown bagging" since it was either previously
frozen and, as Siobhan said, left to thaw on my desk only to be popped into
the microwave later, or a soup I'd prepared and taken in a container to be
heated up.

Now see, with your leftover roasted or fried chicken, I'd just have put a
couple of pieces in a rubbermaid container with some green beans or potatoes
or rice and heated it up in the microwave. I'm just not a salad or cold
food person.

I cooked lots of food on weekends - still do, in fact. Then I'd freeze bits
of what was left - meatloaf, chicken or pot roast, for example. Or I'd take
the leftover fixings for tacos and the scent of the re-heated spiced meat
would draw a crowd This one guy used to hover around my desk (which
really annoyed the crap out of me) asking what I'd brought for lunch. Go
get your own!

Word of advice: fish doesn't go over well in an office environment If
you don't like your co-workers, be sure to reheat some salmon patties and
wave them around their general vicinity. LOL
