Fascinating choice of perspective by the painter. So much detail on the ground, but the painting is dominated by a sky that isn't doing anything crazy. But somehow it all works. Time to find more from this artist. Thanks for posting!

Judging by the eyes, you must've been driving VERY fast!

Nice. I think I saw her on OnlyFans.

Just dropping in to thank everyone for the ideas, encouragement etc, and a bit of an update.

I bought some onions and added them to my edible-but-not-very-tasty rice, and fried them together, and it tastes a million times better. I have pasta and tuna as backups, and will keep referring back to this thread every time I shop. The positivity in the thread also got me to clean my fridge, which was absolutely filthy (I don't even know how it got like that) to mark the beginning of new kitchen habits. The fridge is still depressingly bare, but it's clean and that makes it less depressing haha. It's nice having more bench space where the microwave was... it almost looks like a kitchen now.

Thanks again! 👍

I think I'll use stock cubes for now. Actually I bought some yesterday. Thanks for the info.

Is a bullion cube a stock cube?

Thanks for the idea!

Yes I get fruit from trees in the neighborhood when I can. When it's fruit season, it saves quite a bit of money.

The ones here don't accept electrical appliances, because they're not able to vouch for their safety (for example, if it spazzes out like my microwave did).

I've been eating a lot of sausages lately too, they're the cheapest source of (reasonably decent) meat I can find. Sometimes I braise sausages in a tin of tomatoes, and sprinkle with basil and curry powder. It's a really satisfying meal for how cheap it is. But it's always good to have ideas on how to change it up.

I agree. I used one for the microwave, but I think saucepan on stove (or hob) is just as easy as a rice cooker. But I'm no authority on the subject.

Ooh broccoli mac and cheese! Capsicum and onion would work too, maybe. Cheers!
