I cook enough veg for two days in one go. Ideally I eat half on the day and rest the next day or morning of second day.
I am lucky I have lots of time to cook food.
Stuff like broccoli or spinach is manky frozen. Even stuff in a fridge n overnight never tastes great. I only eat beans out of cans if I forget to soak beans overnight.
I just don't use a freezer, seems like a waste of electricity.

Again a lot of folks are stuck for time more than I am.
EDIT: fixed lots of typos

If I had teh time, I would do a lot of this

But I am time poor

If you get broccoli or spinach into a stew/soup before freezing, they are fine

You're doing a great job staying very fit and caring for those women. So don't worry if you don't have time for much else.

It's mostly work and rest

That's 16 hours out of your day right there

Can't wait to be a retiree, I will fucking crush it

Wondering why the cat was staring intently at the corner where the kitchen bin is. Moved it and realised there was a vole cowering there. The second time in my life I've seen a vole. (round fat mice). I got the poop scooper and deftly grabbed him and released him out the back.

Fell free to make with the hero rep.

That was a bit like last night. Sometimes interesting, sometimes boring, but ultimately I was just watching things fall over one by one.
Except last night, it was people falling over, rather than dominos. I left early.

When my Mam was especially bad after a strong dose of chemo, she couldn’t hold cards properly but dominos were fine. I’d get the bus to Beaumont before work and sit there playing dominos for an hour or two, and it would usually be just the two of us. As shitty as things were, I really enjoyed it.
After she died I wanted to get two dominos tattooed in memory of her, but it was pointed out it’d look like I just really, really liked pizza. In fairness, I do love pizza.
Moral of the story is dominos are a much underrated game.

I was watching a Spanish series and I heard a snippet of a song that I wanted to hear more of, so I used shazam, nothing. So I had to watch the credits like I did as a kid. Can't find anything online. It's not on the official soundtrack either. So now I have an old school music puzzle. It's very nostalgic and a minor pleasure to have to work for it.

The experience was nostalgic, not the song.
Sure but I'm not sure it would be of anyone's taste here.

There are some songs that are made for the movie industry that never get released, they’re like using a library sound effect like thunder or animal noises. Could be something like that? They’re generally sold through professional suppliers as compilations and don’t generally appear online to plebs like us.
