After two months of having guests sleeping in my living room and a week or two of recovering from the experience, I'm ready to get back onto this. The experience of having guests wasn't bad, they were perfectly wonderful. It's just that I was the only one of the four of us who actually cleaned up in the kitchen and after a while the mere sight of the kitchen depressed me. So I fled to my dad's place for nearly a week.

Anyway, I'm back and besides the timeline, I'm starting over. It's a little easier to calculate that way.

And I'm actually looking forward to this, funny enough. It'll be nice to have a reason to get in the kitchen again now that I've cleaned it up.

Now time to go finish off the bacon already in the fridge. Gotta start out clean after all, right?

I finally ate the steak I got last week! Don't worry, I froze it in the time between buying and cooking it. And it tasted fucking fantastic. A little oil to keep it from sticking to the pan, far too much worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, pepper, some tin foil on top... Omnomnom.

Still I haven't been eating much at home. Funny enough I've been doing it more since David has been in Oregon. Maybe I've just got a lot of self-esteem issues with my cooking when he's around, or maybe the kitchen is a lot cleaner then.

If I haven't been cooking, what have I been eating then? Cutting up fruit, making salads, the good old British ration quesadilla, and eating out. Yep, it's a bad habit to eat out and I have no reason to be so self-conscious about my cooking, but it's hard to help. Also I wake up a few hours before my guests so I don't want to wake them up.

Either way The closest I've come to using up part of my rations was the gratuitous amount of chocolate milk I've drunk. It still left me with a pint to roll over to next week. Or two, if you don't count the carton of milk I bought but haven't opened yet.

Oh wait, I used up all the bacon on a full bacon sandwich. Totally worth it.

Still looking forward to this upcoming week.
