my head is weird about food, idek

I have a problem with spending money on food. It is really hard for me to do. I just see it as such a huge waste of money because, as I mentioned to revengent once when I was angsting over spending money mother gave me to buy myself dinner, food is transitory. I see no value in spending money on it, unlike with possessions I can hold onto for years ( Read more... )

Your oh-so-appropriate icon! <3

Groceries are so expensive but it's worth it for the chocolate.

Omg, CHOCOLATE. I was weak and gave in! I blame everyone in this post for telling me I should spend money on food- there's chocolate on sale this week for $2 each and I gave in! BUT I AM READING AN AWESOME LOKI FIC RN AND NEEDED SOMETHING TO MUNCH ON WITH IT, SO.

And I have even been cooking again, so I'm just really awesome, as you well know. :P

If I could cook like you, I prob would bother with groceries! As it is, there really is no point, lol. I had a look at those frozen meals at Safeway, and some of them looked interesting, but...meh. $10 for something that'll last one night? And may not even taste very nice since I'd be microwaving, rather than oven-ing it? I'll pass. (I WAS SO TEMPTED TO GET APPLE PIE, THOUGH, 'COZ OMG, I LOVE APPLE PIE- but then there was a warning there saying, 'we do not advise you put this product in the microwave' and I was all *sadface* and put it back in the freezer *wibble*)

I wish I thought like that ( ... )

But don't you get hungry during the day? I have to at least have a piece of toast and peanut butter in the morning, and then I'm good until morning tea, but if we didn't have morning tea I'd be good until lunch.

What's morning tea for you? Biscuits and such?
(and lol, it always sounds funny to me- 'tea' meaning food! And then Australians using 'tea' to also mean dinner. SO CONFUSING)

Yeah...as above- I just got used to not eating because of:

a) bucking society's dictates (I WILL NOT EAT SOGGY CEREAL OR A GROSS SANDWICH BECAUSE IT'S ~EXPECTED)
b) wanting to save money, and
c) wanting to keep my computer and knowing if I leave for a moment, someone else would snatch it up.
d) having a sorta semi eating disorder because of issues. When depressed and suicidal, eating didn't seem like much of a priority This isn't a factor anymore, but it did help form the habit back in the day.

Wow. Can I please have your money hoarding skills? Swear to god bb, you are going to be a millionaire one day.I would gladly share my skills if it were a ( ... )
