The cooking lesson is a very thoughtful gift.

There's hell of difference between cooking as a bachelor and cooking "food that wives like to eat."

I eat like a savage when I'm left to my own devices (half a bag of pizza rolls, microwaved chopped-ham sandwiches, cereal, anything in "quesadilla" form) but much better when I have a lady looking out for me (all meat entrees have a vegetable accompaniment, actually concerned about eating pasta for dinner four days running, not seriously considering anything frozen as a dinner option).

I know I don't have to eat pizza three times a week but I seem unable to help myself when I have a house to myself.

I've done that. When I'm alone I'll decide to swing by the pizza-by-the-slice place I really like that the SO hates. Then realize rationalize that since I'm going straight home anyway and a whole pizza is only a couple bucks more than 2 slices I'd be a fool not to get a whole pizza. Then I eat pizza every meal for an entire weekend.

It's just in solitude. The SO is vegetarian and I am not, so many nights we'll cook two entirely separate meals. So I'm totally used to cooking real meals from scratch just for me. But when she's not around I revert back to eating only chinese take-out and pizza rolls at really weird times.

Even if she's just working late I might decide to put off my ostrich stir-fry for another day and eat two packages of instant oatmeal with some jam instead.

We only eat decently due to guilt, is the point I'm trying to get across* here.

Eating pizza three times a week doesn't have to be unhealthy.  Just make it yourself.   Go easy on the cheese and salami, and load that fucker up with stacks of vegetables - capsicum, onion, olives, mushrooms, whatever.  When that's combined with a good tomato sauce on the base (I like to use the jars people buy for pasta - if you get a good brand they are hell of tasty) and some fresh basil on top you have a perfectly healthy meal.  If you want to be even healthier, only eat a bit of it and have a salad on the side.  Just because it's pizza doesn't mean it has to be dripping in grease.  I eat pizza three or four times a week.




Of course, I am about 15-20 kilos overweight, so you may want to take that with a grain of salt.

um, I made myself pasta the other day. It was delicious, but, bland. Just some noodles, and Zia's pasta sauce (Zia's is a good Italian restaurant in St Lous.) It needed some meat or something.
