If you learned to cook then you might find a recipe you liked

After Shithead II left I went on a Gin and Slimline Tonic diet for a couple of months. It was great, washing up and shopping were simplified considerably.

Gosh yes, you are big and butch and brave. No wimpiness intended to be implied

Apart from gall stones it was my only reason for giving up eating.

No need to be butch nor brave, everything has worked out very well. Happy to be thought big, of course.

I'll have to try a chili as the nights are getting colder. I tried a beef stew last week and I put in gravy granules instead of beef stock and it turned into beef glue.

I have have to do the cooking as if HID done any we'd bankrupt the BC health system.

Roast Chicken, roast potatoes, veg.
Pan Fried salmon w/ wild rice
Pork Tenderloin, mash, stuffing and carrots.
Sausages (Cumberland), mash and gravy.

I made my first ever apple pie on the weekend and it came out a blinder.

egg on toast

Tomato soup with bread

Tomato soup without bread
