Dinner for one

Last night, I was home alone (insert Macaulay Culkin hands-on-face scream). No Jason. No Moorea. Just me, a house filled with tools, dry wall, screws, and plastic barriers blowing in the wind (as the windows were open). It felt a little bit like I was in a deserted mental hospital. Probably because I watched an episode of True Blood where they were actually in a deserted mental hospital.

So back to being home alone. It’s nothing new for me, and I’ve become proficient at making the laziest dinners possible when there’s only one person to “cook” for. Usually, it’s grilled cheese and tomato soup. But since I don’t have a stove top, I can’t make grilled cheese (quiet you naysayers who suggest that I use the toaster oven!). Also, it was too hot to cook (read: I can find almost any excuse not to cook).

And that brings us to dinner:


I like how I made the rice krispies ginormous. In reality, it was a small bowl.

I tried to cover all major food groups, although fruits and veggies are noticeably absent. Maybe tomorrow.

  1. Since J wasn't around you should have had the good stuff...like frosted flakes.

    BTW, we should loan you our panini maker. Makes the best grilled sandwiches, no stove top needed. Plus it is healthier b/c you don't need butter to make the outside crispy. And easy clean up, you just wipe it down.
