erin,
there were a LOT of people who were spoiled, so that might be it. People completely lost it in my twitter timeline. They were PISSED.
Right. Sir. Honey.

The status is NOT quo.
I haven't watched it yet! Please don't spoil me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"So no one but me does the thing where you just eat leftovers each meal until they're gone rather than freezing them?
I can't eat my way through four pounds of pot roast before it goes off.
So, what happened in Downton Abbey? I never managed to get back into season 3.

I was accidentally spoiled for Downton (which I haven't actually watched yet, so there may be more shocking stuff that I am not spoiled for, I don't know) because I couldn't remember a minor detail about a main character that we learned back in the first season so I just googled the character and found out stuff I didn't mean to know. Oh well.
Mmmm, pot roast. I love braised meat in general, so tender. I think I have braised lamb chop and leeks on deck for dinner tomorrow. Nom.

Hey, if it was four pounds raw it may be only 3 pounds cooked! Which is still a fuckload of meat for one person, of course.
I t heart my freezer so much for storing my excess servings and then providing me with meals that just need reheating later. If only I could master thawing stuff in the fridge.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Once leftovers make it into the freezer, they rarely make it out again before a big freezer cleaning, for me. Except chili. I try to make big batches of things that I can take to work for lunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I love having stuff in the freezer, because it means I can eat a variety of things without cooking again.
I can't believe I was not spoiled for Downton, except in that I had read Dan Stevens saying he wouldn't be in season 4, so I knew something would have to happen at some point, and every time Matthew said how in love he was, I wondered how they were going to get to a divorce...

Our wings are not tired.
My freezer skills are lacking. Mostly I need to label stuff because I can't tell what has been there years and what I carefully portioned out last week. I am the only one in the house that would actually look at the freezer for food. The rest of them are only interested in instant food gratification.
Please only use your ladder improperly while sober.
This! Of course I have a very limited ladder capability due to height issues. Attics are neat though! When we were kids we played in the attic, including digging into trunks of old clothes and conducting actual plays.
