Saturday, making lasagna...

Hello, everybody!
Just felt like a bit of chit-chat this gray Saturday afternoon.

I'm taking a little break from making vegetable lasagna, which I'm making partly to use up a squishy eggplant.
HouseMate (HM) has been ordering veg from Damaged Veggies Dot Com, or some such business that sells imperfect organic veg---the stuff the stores won't sell because it's ugly--which, who cares?––or, I've noticed, sometimes because it's on the edge of going bad, which yeah, I do care because you have to use it or lose it.

The nice but wasteful thing is, this company delivers to your house, so the carbon footprint is ridiculous. 

Though I suppose if it saves anyone a trip to the store, it evens out.
WHATEVER!

I am not going to examine this closely. It's HM's thing--she pays for it––and it is indisputably a GOOD thing that we have fresh veggies on hand.
And that I feel pressured to cook the veg before it goes bad?
Also a good thing: I am cooking more.

One thing I'm not missing like I thought I would:
eating out at restaurants.
I do miss coffee shops--I miss sitting in public among strangers.
But I don't miss paying $25 for a burger and fries, with tax and tip.

Since I cut my hours in half, I am not even making enough to pay my cheap rent, and that's it. But I don't need much else except groceries. I could live very cheaply, and luckily I have savings, from dead relatives.
Thank you, dead relatives!

Oh---here comes Marz biking up with mozzarella--I sent her to the store to buy some. So, all for now--back to finishing the lasagna.
