    Cooking just for yourself is a pain in the arse, isn't it? Who can be bothered?

    I certainly can't. My wife is away for the week and I seem to have regressed. I have not eaten a meal off a plate since Sunday, preferring to grab handfuls of whatever I find in the fridge, shove them into my mouth and move on.

    As I ate alternate handfuls of cold roast pork and cooked, cold cabbage left over from Sunday's dinner on Monday, I wondered if perhaps things had gone a little bit wrong. So last night I cooked. I made popcorn. With a microwave.

    I expect I'll be going through people's bins by Friday.

    Beans on toast is your friend.

    The stereotype food of students but a fine meal nonetheless.

    Or cheese on toast.

    There must be some kebab action.

    Surely there will be some kebab action?

    I'm thinking of making some Thai-style crab cakes tonight, but I'm worried that they won't hold together on the spit.

    Goalpost moving alert.

    You sir have surely moved into the area of 'takeaway food when one is alone'.

    But the chap must eat, sw. He contends that cooking whilst home alone is a tiresome chore;

    his chosen method of dealing with this issue is eating leftovers from the fridge.

    Surely, under these circumstances, any caring friend would recommend the kebab option?

    I am not disputing the generosity of your suggestion.

    Simply that I like to stick to the topic.

    Ftr I nearly had a kebab for lunch just now but instead went for Nasi Goreng which I am hugely disappointed to admit came with a fried egg that was not soft / runny.

    Such disappointments may be hard to bear, but they have the merit of building character.

    A man who has faced an over cooked egg may face any travail with impunity, sw.

    No. I'm eating healthily. Well,. as healthily as what I can find in the fridge allows.

    I'm surprised b. I quite embrace cooking alone. I'm allowed to get elaborate that way.

    As well as extremely pissed.

    Nah. For me, cooking is an act of love. Cooking just for oneself is therefore just masturbation - a

    pointless, inadequate, unsatisfactory and ultimately rather depressing thing.
