I learned so many useful things from you admitting to be a shit show:

1. Thanks for the call out re fat bodies. I live in one and have placed so many unfair demands on my body that already does so much. I’m learning to manage my (bad) dreams that life would be 10x better as a thin person. Life is already really great.

2. Didn’t know you could get canned potatoes! I must look for them on my next supermarket trip

3. Bento boxes must die. I used to just get rice and leftover Dahl/curry for lunch. My son has not eaten 1 lunch box at school in 2023, just the chips.

4. Will you be adding your air fryer to your emergency kit?

We all do! I'm ok with my fat body. I just let it do what it wants and we are all happier for it. Strong and fit is my goal!

They are baby potatoes in a can, under Countdown's cheap brand. Blue can. A couple of bucks maybe? Well worth it, as a super quick and filling snack!

My daughter takes ramen in a thermos thing right now, and then the stupid bento box thing with snacks in it. Honestly, the day where every school has meals provided will be a good day.

And I honestly hadn't thought about it, but I love my air fryer so much, I'm now wondering if I need to buy a second one and just keep it nicely boxed up for a future time. Thanks for the reminder! I'd be lost without it!
