So, do you freeze the individual servings separately or all together?

BizB, that is a fantastic idea! I think I'll try that since I always feel bad when I make too much food and can't eat it in two days. It never occurred to me to freeze it.

I completely agree.

I wish it was that easy but our society doesn't really allow for it. In previous generations people could afford to have one bread winner and one home maker. Bread winner takes care of the finances and the home maker has time to prepare meals and make sure things around the house are done so that when it's rest time both can actually rest after a hard day and have had healthy meals. Now both parents are forced to work (sometimes even two or three jobs) just to make ends meet, pick kids up from school or after school programs (usually later than when we SHOULD be eating dinner), take care of after hours activities and still clean and take care of domestic things which leaves little to no real down time except for crashing into bed for your 7 hours. People with stressful lives also suffer from non-restful sleep, and from there it's just a downward spiral.

I eat a lot of fast food due to long hours at work and well....it's a bit difficult cooking for one at times. My biggest problem with fast food is the lack of healthier things on the menu. Even at McDonalds they OFFER fruit and walnut salad....but it so fucking packed with preservatives the apples and grapes don't even taste like apples or grapes anymore. I wish someone would start a few healthy fast food alternatives for busy people.

I work 8-12 hours a day, have chess club, Go club, Urban Explorers and Roller Derby practice with speed skating so it would be REALLY effing nice if some place offered healthy food on the go that didn't taste like ass and actually taste like real fruit and vegetables.

To be honest, I wouldn't even mind paying a bit more for the food but holy hell there's got to be a better solution than this.

Being a phone psychic was the easiest work I ever did. Too bad Ms Cleo got sued and we all lost our jobs. :(

Especially since I have no psychic powers what so ever....

Well most people don't need more than a V6 anyway unless you're planning on hauling heavy things and such. I definitely agree on going with a foreign car though.

In an attempt to read this thread my eyes are now bleeding. This is a fair warning to anyone else who may happen across this place of strange characters strung together in a similar fashion like words.

Stop reading now, you may cause irreversible damage to your brain if you don't.

I can completely agree with what you just said about the space stuff but when a movie is made for a general audience (particularly a space action flick of some kind) they want to hear the explosions and sounds of the ships and such. Lame, but true.

Hank Williams is the father of sad country songs and I love him for it.

Why is Fables such a good comic? And why the fuck am I such a fangirl for Bill Willingham and Grant Morrison?

If they didn't have the IQ of a June Bug they wouldn't be in this predicament. They would have turned out to be normal geeks and nerds like the rest of us!

Natural selection could be such a beautiful thing.
If only society wasn't so obsessed with saving humanity.

I don't think there's anything wrong with having a little bleach in the gene pool.

Hi Evil, you look like a really livE one, but thisleads me to believe that you might actually be a zombie, and I sold all the LPs I didn't like to Rasputins back in 1986 when I was short on cash.
