Mix n Match Food

Pizza helper. Steam or boil potato. Drain, but keep potato juice for soups. 

Cook onion, 2mato and turmeric in olivoil for 6mins. 

Credit card damage. Some cards haven’t been repaired since we damaged them in 2020, during the pandemic. Instead of learning how to cook, we ordered food. It was the best of times for food delivery companies like Skip The Dishes, Uber and the like.

Contrary to popular opinion, take out food can coexist with food from pots and pans. Take out is expensive, that’s why we use credit cards but it is not necessarily filling. That’s why home and off-shore food can have a marriage of convenience, on a plate.

What’s the point? I ordered food because I didn’t want to cook. Don’t sweat. It doesn’t take that long. Pizza toppings for example. We think that we’ll quench hunger more if we order extra toppings. It doesn’t work that way because pizza is an occasion, not food.

Those kids love it, but they must work for it. Show them how to core apples. Tell them to chop and cook apples with onion and tomato in olive oil in low heat, for six minutes. Pizza arrives. Open box and spread apples on top.

Bakery stuff. Show kids how to re-invent croissants, tea biscuits or baguettes. Cook onion, lots of tomatoes and small chili in olive oil until onion is tender. Cut bread and biscuits into small sizes. Eat.
