    I know, but I've hated the oven for a year, I can't even use gm1 because the flame dies all the time…

    Actually sir, you'd be pleased to know I have only eaten popcorn one night in the last month or so… and even that was only because I had had lunch very late.

    I've been very good about cooking for myself, even when I only have about an hour to do it.

    Hehee

    Sounds just like me.. well that or some chicken and pasta. I can cook if I want to, but I really don't have the time most nights.

Quote of the day

Over the centuries, mankind has tried many ways of combating the forces of evil...prayer, fasting, good works and so on. Up until Doom, no one seemed to have thought about the double-barrel shotgun. Eat leaden death, demon...
--(Terry Pratchett, alt.fan.pratchett)
