Good evening! A 4'5 in this distant morning.
Monday was my day off, yesterday morning my shift was cancelled, and today I had the morning off as well. That means I had 3 proper nights of sleep in a row and boy, does it make a difference!
I also had a chance to cook some meals for the rest of the week, when I'll be busier. I mentioned that in the previous post. But that involved a trip to Tk-maxx yesterday, when I realised there was not a single usable saucepan in the shared kitchen. I have my own plates and utensils but tend to use the shared pans, turners and such, as it saved me bringing more stuff from my room and back (and storing cooking pots in the room, which felt weird but tbf, doesn't make much difference when I already have all the plates there lol). The issue is that the shared equipment often disappears or is not kept in good condition, so I've been buying more for myself recently to be able to cook when I want to. I already had a frying pan that I'm using more now, and I got nice colourful tongs, turner and spoon this month. I remember I thought a saucepan would be a bit much, that I won't use it so often and it takes more space, and I probably can do with what we have at home. Clearly I didn't check what we had at home at that time, and I regretted it! But no worries, I had this unexpected time off after all, so I walked to Tk-maxx and now I have a new addition to my kitchen collection AND a new pair of boots for this winter! 😎
(The boots were not in my plans yesterday but I like the style, they fitted like they were mine already , and I did plan to get a pair this season so, win-win!)
