Thread: Single Hotrodder's food

Duane - another option is to head on over to your favorite big box book store (Borders, Barnes and Noble, etc) and head for the cook book aisle. Then check out cook books featuring "cooking for one or two people". I am sure they got them, cause they got everything else. If you don't have a store nearby, go to one of the online stores, like Amazon.com, etc. They got'em. As well as QVC.com (they also have all kinds of neat kitchen toys). Just remember though, STAY OUT of the car magazine aisle, especially the one with hot rod magazines.

RATHER THAN CHECK THE BOOK STORE,I WOULD SUGGEST LOOKING FOR A GOOD LOOKING COOK.DUANE MUST BE FELLING BETTER.

Duane, to go back to your original point, the food industry has responded to more and more people being single, with small portion packages of food. Things like "soup for one" etc. The problem is you pay almost as much for these little packages as the big ones.

I usually did the cooking in our family because of the hours my ex wife worked, plus I like to cook. Now that I am alone I have learned to recycle food, so that if I make a roast one day and have left overs, I make a pot roast the next. And, as I mentioned before, I love leftovers as most food like chili and stew improves overnight in the fridge......the flavors have a chance to blend together.

I've also found out that the old adage "two can live as cheaply as one" is BS. When I have been with a lady my food bills were a lot higher because of having to make something different every night, or going out to eat a lot. That "wining and dining" doesn't come cheap. (more money for car parts now )
