Living on your own is ... eating like a bachelor.

Living on your own is ... fattening.
The meals I do know how to make are all carbohydrate high and as tasty as they are, I cannot eat them every day.
Vodka Cream Pasta
Homemade garlic bread
Loaded baked potatoes
I feel myself gaining weight just thinking about these foods!
Living on your own is ... not good news for the poor chickens.

Needless to say - my cholesterol test wasn't very good when Discovery Health hosted our recent wellness day.
