Words edited: 398 (pathetic, but today is a day off)
Meals cooked: 1 (lunch: bean soup. My wife claims this is “Dalmatian,” whatever that means. Soak some beans overnight. Stir-fry in some cooking oil with two onions and some garlic; cut two potatoes into little cubes and add, still stirring. Add two sliced carrots. Keep stirring. Add pepper and salt. Add water. Boil it up, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for, like, an hour or so. Add a fresh, sliced tomato and maybe some of those small soup pasta. When the beans are soft, the soup’s ready. Add some olive oil)
Alcohol units consumed: 0 (though about to change as soon as the damn soup is ready)
Caffeine units consumed: 2 (I should point out that these are big mugs of Turkish coffee)
