Saturated Saturday

I awoke with good intentions to cut my lawn and go tour a plot. Spoiler, I did neither. But it wasn’t a squandered day either. There was a great, hot shower to start things off and that was followed by no breakfast. That’s right, none. This seems to be something I keep coming back to. My entire life I was told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day but then I see that most people basically have nothing. A handful of blueberries and a coffee. Two pieces of toast with butter. A small bowl of Cap’n Crunch. That feels like nothing to me, next to nothing at least. I have skipped it a few times without consequence when I was short on time or lazy so I thought maybe I would trying being deliberate about skipping it. So this is that. Instead I went to my computer and streamed my MSC challenges to the world then I decided to finish up that campaign on Command & Conquer. It was the last of the four main ones. I’ve definitely gotten my money out of that game. When I started to hunger, around one thirty, I ventured down to the galley and started a new dish. I’ve never made brussel sprouts in my air fryer before. The bacon I needed was about to turn. It always seems like I let stuff get to the brink of rotting then eat it. The brussel sprouts were no exception. I actually had to discard a couple of them. I made one error by not reading the instructions carefully and that was adding the bacon back to be cooked more with the greens. Luckily it didn’t burn and ai got away with it. The crispy, brown leaves that peeled off should have been tossed. Although delicious, they left me feeling strange in my tummy. This was a calculated lunch choice. For many people brussel sprouts produce excessive flatus which can cause an odourous aftermath. This was definitely one of those times. Luckily I live alone and this experienced very few side effects.

To recover from this fried meal I descended down to my lair. I played some NHL20 to pass the time and listen to my audiobook. It’s one of the few activities I can do while still enjoying the audio aspect. I played for an hour or so while my clothes dried. I watched a film after the NHL20 bored me and then I forgot about my clothes. I decided at this point to make a fancier dinner than I’d normally bother with. I breaded some chicken and cooked it in the air fryer and then made a pasta sauce and for some reason a mixture of shells and rotini. I added some sauce and cheese to the chicken to make it a chicken parm. I promise you, it was amazing! I started watching the Office US on Netflix sometime later and did that until sleep took me.
