Totally not guilty of that...

@star2000shadow: lol. Yeah, I can see that. It's just one of those shows that never really got my attention for some reason.

@blue: lol! ... and that's probably why^^ XD

@danielle: Hello. I'm doing ok today, thanks - been running all over the place, it seems. How are you today?

@Purpsy: lol - yeah, my guys seem to be pretty slow on eating the leftovers - unless it's something like Thanksgiving, and even then the veggies are usually overlooked in favor of other things. :3

@Wildfire: Sounds like my family too. People tend to forget when leftovers are not eaten for more than two days then is just sitting there in the fridge for several weeks...  ಠ‸ಠ

@Purpsy: There comes a point when I stop cooking and tell everyone to "forage" in the fridge. AND, I have a whiteboard on the fridge that reminds them what's in there and what they should be eating (and sometimes, what to stay away from). Unfortunately, they usually seem to get in to new or unopened things instead of eating the leftovers anyway. I also try to make a point of going through the fridge at least once a week to dispose of anything that has been sitting there too long...

@Wildfire: *pats your shoulder*
I get you, I try to eat the leftovers but I'm only one person with not a huge appetite.

AndIhaveanabsoluteirrationalfearoneatingleftoverstalefoods.... But it hurts throwing away the food out. Feels such a waste

@Purpsy: Yeah, I know. If I lived alone, I'd probably just cook like twice a week...
I don't like throwing away perfectly good food either, which is why I sometimes tell them to forage and scrounge. Sometimes they'll eat the leftovers... sometimes, not.

@star2000shadow: Yeah, but when we are "bad" it's usually because we don't know any better or are living out of egocentricity.

@Wildfire: Do you cook a lot? Or do you ratio properly for your family? Which is probably a bit difficult since you have food driven sons in your family.
Honestly I'm guilty picking favourites with my meals often... but since my dad has been cooking less there's not much leftovers, only when my mom comes home with food from an outing or from her friends. Had to throw lots of those lately... it was a lot. Honestly it gets also overwhelming sometimes when there's too much food in the fridge

@Purpsy: I usually cook a full meal every night, and try to make sure there is food for the guys to get in to for breakfast, lunches & snacks (lunch meat, hard boiled eggs, peanut butter, nut bars, eggs, tortillas, salsa, sometimes premade/prepackaged burritos, etc.) It's hard to put limits on how much we each eat (what I understand you to mean by "rationing properly") because I have two young adult sons who need the extra calories, etc. I like the idea of cooking "once" and having leftovers to turn in to another meal another time... but with my family dynamics right now, that doesn't always work. I can't tell you how many times I cook "more than enough" for leftovers and other meals, only to have it all disappear by the end of the evening simply because it's good and they want to eat it /groan/

Now I get why you go out on an errand several times a week.

@Purpsy: ...and why my food bill is so high! XD x_x
If it were just me, things would be significantly different in terms of food and cooking! But, it's hard to tell hard-working young men to limit their caloric intake... and I'd rather they eat what *I* cook (healthy "real" food) than to do constant (unhealthy) take-out. I usually go grocery shopping twice a week, if both of my boys are here...

I am just hanging out and listening to music. I am going to finish journaling for today and maybe upload it to my new blog. Not sure yet.
