Leftovers? Yech.

Ok, there are some leftover things things that are good. I like roasted
chicken and beef cold or reheated, especially in gravy. I have made up some
sort of curries for left over lamb. I have no use for leftover pork. Some
things are even better as leftovers than the first time round, like good
stews. My old coworker was a bachelor and he cooked more roasts than my wife
and I do. He roast for himself every sunday night, and then he has leftovers
more most of the rest of the week. When I am baching it for a few days I tend
to do stir fries.
