Cooking for one

Willowx

Pasta and tomato sauce for me, with the other milkshake from yesterday. I've decided I'm walking to the butcher's tomorrow morning. No idea what I'm going to get though.

I've never actually had a fajita.... so no tips from me.

My taste buds LOVED the 60s/70s so chose to stay there for the most part

Haha sorry!
I'll make you fajitas if you come and count all my tropical fish? Currently an impossible task!

Video it for 10 minutes.... upload it to Youtube and ask viewers. You'll get 500,000 views and 5,000 replies of how many are in there

Except I'll get 5000 different answers... I've got a 240 litre and 135 litre tropical tanks... All with small fish!

LOL.
Take a photo then - and count them from that
Photo fish don't move... so you stand a better chance.

Morning PN..you up at stupidly early o'clock too!

My inconsiderate, noisy neighbour woke me up about an hour and a half ago..bloody annoying!

To stay on topic, absolutely NO thoughts of food or cooking for one, it's far too early but think a cup of tea for one may be in order!!

I have sleep issues.... this time I think it's the chocolate I scoffed.

Yesterday, while out, I bought a box of individual choccies (like Celebrations, but own brand) - and a 250 gram bag of my favourite choccies (a seconds bag from Poundland).

.... and I've scoffed WAY too many... and it's made me feel uncomfortable and "twitchy" so I've been up and about a few times pacing about, walking round the garden in the dark ....

I've noticed that choccies have this effect on me in recent years - and every time I think "Ah, chocs, must eat fewer chocs", but then I "treat" myself anyway.

I need to give them up really.

FOOD: I wish I HAD bought a s0ddin' loaf yesterday now as I'm sure scoffing some toast would settle my stomach down. I think the closest 24 hour supermarket's about a 12 mile round trip though... so can't pop out and get one. And, I bet, even if I did make the journey I bet the shelves would be empty.

Insomnia blights my life.

Re chocolate, it makes my teeth hurt but I still eat it.

Have you no shops nearby that are open now where you can get some bread? I guess most of the SM will open at 8am?

Morning everyone and I thought I was an early riser LOL or more accurately my elderly pooch is:(
I need to be really careful with chocolate as caffiene is one of my major condition triggers and I'm very fond of very dark chocolate so can only risk a couple and not on an empty tummy :mad:
Too early to be thinking about cooking for one here too need at least another two mugs of coffee (decaff lol) to even contemplate toast:)

Whoknowskt89 why do you need to count your fish?:)

Another one here that's been walking the garden in the dark lol wish I could blame it on the chocolate though lol didn't have any. I woke up at 4 this morning and just couldn't go back to sleep. So did some sewing, played computer games and wandered the garden. taking note of jobs that need to be done, sigh, when I have the energy and maybe a year to spare.

On my third cup of coffee while I decide what to do today.
