    It can be easy, sounds like a bit of a spoiled kid to me. She knows if she complains she'll get whatever she wants, oh boy I know what I'd give her...

    Fingers crossed that she eats the omlette etc, sounds a rather ungrateful, spoilt......

    Send her to Pakistan to live in a snow covered tent with no heating, clothing, food etc etc...

    What about Pork Paella

    Chop some onion and fry with diced pork
    add a couple of cups rice and add water to just cover
    add stock cubes to taste and veges of various descriptions
    add a couple of tsps of paprika and tumeric
    simmer (stirring to stop sticking) until rice is cooked through (there shouldn't be any liquid left)

    I ended up going shopping earlier than planned and spending money I didn't intend to spend :o We had bacon, eggs and sausages - a cop out, I know, but I just couldn't face the usual stress. Thanks for all the suggestions though, I'll be using some of the ideas this week when it's just me and DH.
