Speaking of Barrowman, today's his birthday, too.
Maybe I've always been here.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy birthday, TR! I hope it's full of hairless cats and airplanes.

Aims, or anyone else, I remember you mentioning cooking for a month a while back. How do you do that? I start my new job on Monday (and it's payday on Saturday), so I'm contemplating trying to do a ton of cooking this weekend to reduce stress for the next few weeks.
I'm guessing that laying in all out is a first step, but I though maybe you, or anyone else, might have good suggestions/ideas for me.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Basically, I made a menu of things that could be easily accessed for meals. In my first round I made lasagna, chicken pot pie, pot roast, meatloaf, chicken and bean burritos, and spaghetti sauce. I made a shopping list and bought as much in bulk as I could to save $$. I also bought those disposable aluminum pans with covers. From there I kind of did things in order from quickest to longest prep time. Like the pot roasts were the easiest - take a huge ziploc bag and put in it: a seasoned pot roast, 1 lb of baby carrots, 1 can of French Onion soup, 1 can of Golden Mushroom soup, 1/2 a container of beef broth. Zip up the bag and put it in the freezer. I found pot roasts on sale at the local grocery that were buy one, get one and I had coupons for the soups and broth and bags.
It worked out great for us. I need to do it again soon, but I'm not sure when we're moving, so it's hard to do. I might do a smaller cooking this time. In the end I ended up with 4 pot roasts, 4 1/2 sheet lasagnas, 4 1/2 sheet pot pies, 5 gallons of spaghetti sauce, 6 meatloafs, and about 35 chicken and bean burritos which were AWESOME for lunches. Each dish (except the burritos) were enough for 3-4 meals (including lunches)all for about $500.
