Maddy bought a Gousto box. Brian has been on Planthood. I have long ago cancelled my HelloFresh and my Mindful Chef and my Nonna Tonda.
When we are busy and profligate it is helpful to have people send us food in the correct portion size I suppose. But Maddy says : “I know for certain I could make a better Thai curry than that”. She could. You could. I could. Anyone could. But it saves shopping and it cuts back on waste. I defrosted some bratwurst on Friday and then forgot I did it and now I don’t trust they are going to be safe to eat. Which is a shame really as I bought them somewhere full of hope.
I still have most of a great big Chicken of the Woods in the freezer that is still good. Too much for me to use. It’s all in batches. Anyone passing by my flat who likes it, ping me and I’ll bring you down a little packet. People pass by so often, they send me photos of my flat with the lights on and don’t stop. If you’re in a cab even if you’re in a hurry and you like Chicken of the Woods, slow the fuck down, call in advance and if I’m home I’ll meet you on the street for a trade through the window. We don’t need a long hi there hi there so how are you so how are you what about the thing the thing yes that thing what about it etc etc.
Even if you don’t know me, just give me more than twenty four hours notice and comment on my blog and if you’re going on the other side of the river to the Buddhist pagoda in Battersea, that’s where you’ll get your “chicken” mushroom. I need to get more freezer space.
I might miss the comment though let’s be honest. I’m not gonna give my contact details publicly. But most of the people who read what is essentially my diary, they know me.
Yesterday I guessed six years. Nine… What the fuck?
Lou is back in Brighton waking her workshop before it goes. I’m gonna try and get my shit together tomorrow about the lockup. Slowly steadily. Thing after thing. Sadly Easter is over. It has been absolutely brilliant. And very very lazy.
