Same here. About supper, not the daughter.
I have been on povvo rations for a week, so I'm going to get something outrageous. Like, oh I don't know, a pizza.

There's only so long a fellow can povvo it up
before the will to live starts plummeting and the only thing for it is to treat oneself in some small way.

The missus made cod in a red wine sauce last night.
It was fucking fantastic.

I bought some scallops at the weekend.
I intedned to eat them tonight, but I forgot to take them out of the freezer, so I think we'll be having chilli instead.

What a coincidence, we're having something chilli based as well.

We should totally be "Having Chilli for dinner" buddies. And text each other as we make it.

We tried griddling squid the other day.
Results were not incredible but potential for a lovely dish is there.

It's tricky
you really do have to cook it for an incredibly short time or it'll get tough.

It wasn't tough so much as...dense.
I cooked it for a v short time. We wondered if the problem was
a) it had been frozen and/or
b) they were large squid - are small ones more delicate?

Yeah, I know the feeling.
I went a bit spend crazy buying stuff. I justified it because it was replacing stuff that was broken. The stuff that was broken, though, had been broken for some time and I'd managed fine without it up until then...

My sofa is completely fucking knackered and there's no way on earth I can replace it.
It's propped up on fucking books. Pathetic.

Plenty of sofas on ebay
I picked mine up for 50 quid

Good point.
Not that I have fifty quid...
