Everyone is cooking such lovely things.. my foot is still knackered, I've had about 4 hours sleep, and I've decided I'm just not cooking. Today is a rest day in my program, and thank goodness too. I made some beautiful lasagna sheets for the factory yesterday which I've converted into a very tasty lasagna today. Then I peeled 30kg of potatoes which I was asked for during the afternoon (! Normally we sort out everyone's production schedule for the day in the morning so we know where we're at and what we're doing; it helps each individual apportion their efforts accordingly). It's Fat Arse/Fast Food Friday here and the children have chosen McDonald's. May the lord have mercy on my soul. And my arse. I still intend to do my tummy exercises. I really do.
Not everyone is cooking. Friday night pizza for me. Bit of a ritual now.
If it helps you feel any get better on the cooking front, I made homemade chevaps that have unfortunately turned like looking like logs of poo.
I’m onboard with that idea of not cooking.
It’s ok every once in awhile and pretty lucky the kids are going with it too!
You must be sick of potatoes now though, 30kg worth an insane amount!
