that's more ambition than i usually have when i'm left to
my own devices, but my biggest thing is to make something
spicy which the person i live with doesn't tolerate or use
when cooking. so a nice stir fry with plenty of spices is
my usual first choice, Thai style beef, onions, coconut milk
and spices will hold me for at least four days. i haven't
had a can of sardines in years, but that can hold me a few
more days, vegetables and fruits, the rest of the week,
beans/nachos/cheese and spinach dip can stretch all of that
to two or three weeks (i rarely have meat two days in a row,
once in three days is more normal)...

grilled chicken is my favorite way i like chicken and for
that it must still have the bones in it and the skin on or i
feel like i might as well be eating something else. i've not
had properly grilled chicken in years. last time we went to
a place that was advertising grilled chicken dinners as a
benefit dinner we got there right after they ran out of food.
since we drove a ways to get there i was disappointed. they
do make excellent burgers so we had those instead.

enjoy the peace and quiet!
