Another depressing thread

At 82 you do not need to eat lots. Just the right things and keep off booze

Who do you mean by you?
Yourself or everyone?

You keep off the booze if you wish, I like a glass of chilled sauvignon blanc sometimes
Thanks.

TheSunRisesInTheEast All I was doing was contradicting your statement that cooking dishes from other cuisines is time consuming. It isn't, beyond that people eat and cook as they will or will not,

I agree.

Most every morsel we eat is scratch cooked (apart tinned tomatoes, coconut milk, and occasionally pulses I've forgotten to soak). Others may, of course, cook and bake or not. Recipe cookery books abound.

Not the way of others, I accept that easily. Affordable to us.

Since wemoved from a rural area to a town centre with lots of restaurants and takeaways uite literally on our doorstop I admit we have eaten out and bought in more. There is the tearoom in the 'Walk' opposite excellent baked potatoes, toasted sandwiches and cakes and the Italian deli opposite that cooks pizzs to order, thin bases and delicious Italian cooked meats and cheeses on top

The easiest and quickest meal for me is a stir fry. Lots of vegetables, maybe fish or chicken and a sauce of choice. Mostly I use soy and I know it is very salty but it makes it all taste good. Takes only a few minutes.
