Very true. Most people here only talk a good meal but what they
actually eat is Spaghettios (shoveled cold from the can) washed down
with a five liter box of wine.
I didn't cook today, I mowed lawns from 9 AM till 5:30 PM (hopefully
last time this year), dinner was a nuked container of cabbage and egg
noodles and cherry coke with Crystal Palace vodka. I'll cook
tomorrow, have an eyeround defrosting... thinking stir fried string
beans with spicy blackbean sauce... maybe some fly lice.
Yesterday was burgers... with caramelized onions:
