But I agree, it is easier to get motivated to cook a lot, when not just for ourselves. I lived alone for many years and in spite of being a good cook, I often just "grabbed something" when I was alone. Sounds like you've got some tasty treats ready when you are, that's great.🍝🍕Geraldine https://www.blogger.com/profile/07410019941984295767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-25023279120764530732017-03-26T15:30:16.978+01:002017-03-26T15:30:16.978+01:00Joeh, you're right.

Food can quickly become boring, that's why my friend and I go out for lunch every few weeks. Not only do I enjoy the company, I also enjoy a different choice of food. As for your soup and salad, I remember once on a holiday abroad I was served soup and salad but the soup was COLD. Intentionally cold.
