This week's cooking adventure was fresh pasta with scallops, white wine, chilli and butter except my supermarket is nowhere bougie enough for scallops so I had to settle for some basic sea bass bitch. I've gotta say I was sceptical going in but it ended up being really dang good (although I suspect the generous helpings of booze and butter was mostly responsible). This is definitely something I'm going to cook again!

As a person cooking for one I double up on all my meals cause supermarket's are just not designed for single people. Half a kilo of mince? Yeah thanks guess I'll have a little bit and throw the other 75% out

Do you have a little freezer on your fridge? I portion mince up in little bags and seal it with the weight, contents and date. It helps a lot because I have no idea how to cook for one person, ever.

Leftovers rule imo

Liquid-heavy things, like a bunch of sauce for pasta or a batch of beans in liquid or something, freeze very well. We make big batches and freeze them in those giant ice cube trays like for giant cocktail ice cubes, then freezer bags once it's done, boom easy 4oz portions to melt as needed and throw on freshly made rice or pasta

The ice cube tray thing started with baby mush food but we have carried it on into grown up food too :haibrower:

This thread brought to you by a tremendous dickhead!

How Wonderful!


I only have excellent ideas
A lot of stuff, if I make too much, I wrap up in tortillas or wraps and then in foil en masse so I have a bunch of easy lunches in the freezer that I can just put in the oven or air fryer. Good for chilis and curries and stuff.

i guess my technique of making a trash bag full of mashed potatoes, freezing it and then using a welding hammer to break chunks off to suck on is pretty behind the times

I have a freezer but I share it so it only gets one compartment and it barely holds my ice cream/hash browns/peas

Well, there's your problem, throw the peas in the garbage. Bing bing bong, so simple.

bios i need your wisdom - i have a winter beard but have had to wear official style disposable masks while working in the old folks home kitchen and it's driving me nuts. it jams my chin hairs in different directions and i have to do a big ol scratch frequently.

is there a beard trick with masks or am i doomed to suffer or shave?

Shave. The mask doesn't fit properly otherwise and compromises your health and the old folks.

I have the opposite problem. I cook for 3, but my son and I eat cold leftovers for lunch so even aiming for 6 portions I usually end up with about 8. Portions are hard.

We have one in our kitchen that says "bless your heart". my wife laughs every time she sees it because to her it means "gently caress you"

It is the single decoration/knickknack in the entire kitchen

hello friend


cooking at the old folks home has made me really think about portions

some of the mega old ladies who are short need MAYBE 1200 calories a day, then there are some old dudes who are tall who need at the very least 2500

I have a 200A electrical service now! This is so awesome!

Think I might go stick a fork in an outlet and pretend it's blowing up at 200A instead of the 15A actually going to it.

Depending on the situation, it can actually be a genuine expression of sympathy.
On the other hand . . . Bless yore heart (because your brain is beyond help and your existence is a waste of oxygen)

It's never said genuinely. It's the original backhanded compliment in the US.

That's actually why I don't buy it, because my kid ate frozen peas forever and never got ill. I've started cooking them now though because she likes them for lunch but not frozen.
