Wonder if shock therapy from static electricity in winter can counteract SADS.
Overwhelming? How much more than whelming would that be exactly?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
I tend to cook on the weekends and eat on it all week. So, I end up having the same meal for 4 days and it gets really boring.
I do the same thing. It's bad enough cooking for two and not always being able to cut a recipe down, but it's near impossible for one person. OTOH, I got a cookbook for Christmas that is all about cooking for one; I suppose I really should look at it and see what it can do for me.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
My menu planning resembles amych's in that I tend to not actually plan them. I buy things I know I can cook quickly for the nights that need a quick meal, and I try to err on the side of food the kids will eat, plus enough fruits and veggies for a week. Oh, I also like erring on the side of foods that have a long shelf life, so I don't HAVE to cook a meal on a day I don't want to just to avoid food going bad. If I miscalculate, TJs is just up the street.
I R LAZY.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If I had a microwave, planning ahead would be much easier. There are many nights where I don't consider cooking an option. So I order in too much, or eat insufficient dinner.
I have not yet made peace with giving up that counter space. I flipped a coin between Foreman grill and microwave, and it came up grill.

I am pretty much Burrell, without needing to plan for feeding kids. I just make sure we have enough stuff on hand to put together a meal for the nights that we know we'll be home. I don't plan it out by day, though, like Monday = linguini; Tuesday = taco night, etc.
I just go with the basic idea that we can have linguini OR tacos OR spanakopita, etc., etc., on any given night.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Can you put the grill on top of the microwave?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We make big ginormous pots of things like stew and freeze some and eat the rest for days. We also eat a lot of sandwiches, since we both like 'em. One stand-by is a baked potato with chili on top (you can throw on some cheese or sour cream if you want to get fancy). Yummy and with a salad it makes a deelish dinner.

spanakopita
I'm never not going to read that as "spankatopia", am I?
