Making my last Benched soup

[Gibbon]

Cop-out. People have been working for much longer than ready-meals and microwaves existed. In fact they probably used to work longer hours.

Disingenous..

Go back 30 years

Who was working and who was at home having spend all day looking after kids. laundry, and cooking or working part time?

Times have changed and most households are now run by two workers (except in labour constituences).

Although having said that we have very few ready meals cos they're expensive and invariably crap. With a bit of planning a pasta bake and a roast sunday dinner can carry on feeding you throughout the week.

Prior Planning and Preparation .......

I make a lot of homemade soup especially now that Pogle jr wont eat meat. It really is very easy to do and a fantastic way of getting children (and partners) to eat loads of fresh veggies.

Congrats, when do you start

I am looking for a new role, they sound ok when I read them in Jobserve, but when you hear more about it from the client, I really don't want the role.

I actually meant "veteran" of a couple of previous meet-ups! But hey if you're getting stroppy in your dotage...

They do say that intolerance is the first sign of old age.
