(6,336 posts)Though this Extended Stay America that I'm living at now (it was cheaper than an apartment on a short-term lease) has a stovetop and microwave, I just don't have the time to cook. My days are often 12 hours and this is the only position I've had where I was not working 7 days a week. I eat out way too often, but lately my meals have been Trader Joe's veggie lasagna (frozen foods section) which is vegetarian (not vegan) and quite delicious.
I just can't bring myself to have a milk out of anything that is not a cow. It's been ingrained in my mind since childhood that milk comes from a cow and I just can't see anything from a plant as milk (with the exception of coconut milk since the coconut itself is filled with it and it's not processed). Maybe one day I'll try coconut milk in my coffee.
Even though I love to cook, I pretty much gave it up for my party and causes bigger than myself. When I go home in a few weeks for Thanksgiving, one of the first things I want to do is cook something not in a microwave.
