Stuck for Dinner!

[ScienceBoy]

Rewarded myself for a hard working week with a takeaway on Friday, ate the leftovers yesterday with the plans to tuck into a tinned Ratatouille tonight and tomorrow.

Annoying thing is the housemate who just moved out has taken the tin opener and I cannot find another! Searched through all the cupboards high and low!

I had poached eggs on toast for breakfast, salad for lunch and now have an empty fridge and freezer with plans to stock up tomorrow.

So in other words I have nothing to eat! Dare I order another takeaway and suffer the guilt? Especially with a trip to an all you can eat place looming on Thursday, I was hoping to even out the diet with a week of healthy but filling meals!

Do I eat nothing or order a pizza?

Good god man! Get a grip! You sound like my other half.

As I recall, you have the build of a 12 year old, so I'm pretty sure a pizza won't do you much harm. :thup:

Almost true! I am 11 stone 6 or something like that. BMI is 23

I am fairly diet conscious, I dont "diet", I just try and eat sensibly and balanced!

TBH I should be able to go a day without a meal and just drink some tea instead

Its just quite funny how the guy ran off with the tin opener, I lived by that thing with my vegetable and three bean curries

I assume the tin is liquid type stuff. If so put it on it's side in a bowl and get a sharp pointed knife you don't mind getting blunt. Stab can central area of the can and cut it open. Voila! It is easier if you dent the can at the intended stabbing area first as this prevents slipage of the knife.

Learnt this one while fishing left my can opener at home and my penknife in the car! It was a mile back to the car. Had a few knives for cutting fish though so used an older one (after cleaning) to access my dinner.

Leave the knives in the drawer, you need an electric drill, 25 grammes of Semtex, a detonator, some sand bags and a mop.

Enjoy your pizza.

You all make a great point!

Off to browse pizzas on Just Eat to see who is open and who has the nicest sounding spicy pizza! Now how to balance out two days of Chinese and one day of Pizza over the next 4 days?

So many different takeaways with so many different meals from all around the world. You will miss a cultural opportunity if you don't pick up the phone and order a balanced healthy meal.

Chicken Rogan Josh with Pilau rice and a Keema naan. By all means have healthy water with it but to bring out the full flavour you need to get some Cobra beer.

Be careful, a mate of mine ended up with blood steaming from a head wound and burnt feet. Apparently it said "pierce here and stand in boiling water"

Sorry, I'le get my coat!

So do I. A kebab in my left hand and a burger in my right hand. Perfectly balanced.
