I’ve had to make my own dinner every day this week. While I like to bake, I hate cooking. I once flipped through a Jamie Oliver cookbook, and the “dashes” of this, and “guesswork” of that, were enough to make me break out in a cold sweat.

I do occasionally throw something together for both of us, but since I was eating solo, I decided it would be easier to make a sandwich. Well three days and three sandwiches later, suffice to say I was pretty frustrated.

I think the reason I hate cooking so much (other than the fact that I’m not good at it) is because I consider such a colossal waste of time. Think about it. The time any one person spends grocery shopping, making food, eating food and cleaning up after food is exorbitant to put it mildly. The opportunity cost is high and the payoff is low… well according to me at least.

So whatever happened to those food pills that were promised to us in a once not so distant future? I’m actually half mad, half disappointed that they don’t already exist. Talk about saving energy, various types of resources…etc. Besides the fact that if they existed, they’d be..

And since I’ve already given up on the possibility of teleportation in my lifetime. I don’t think food in pill form is really so much to ask…
