Mine are made by my boyfriend. It is the privilege of being the primary breadwinner for the house - I don't actually have to do anything involving bread.

Mine is a spoiled, pampered existence.

We can't be real, because we can't agree on what is "consensual reality" and what is "objective" reality.

Also, you know, reality bites.

No, I mean, like Hot Pockets - Reality Bites, tiny little frozen prepackaged food stuffs that go well with Velveeta.

Honestly, though, Siobhan and I trade weeks shopping&cooking.

And to be as real as possible, the kitchen is just where we keep the dirty dishes - not actual cooking taskes place there unless we have more money than normal. At the moment: no money, no food - unless it comes in a Dominoes box or some sort of greasy bag. But I would love to have a showtime rotisserie thingy.

For every Domino box, you could make a couple of real pizzas.

Pizza dough takes about 20min to prepare, leave it to prove for 30min and meanwhile:
Switch on oven (230C, something else F)
Wizz a can of tommy-tatoes (add some garlic salt, black pepper and origano)
Slice cheese (or you could use E-Z-Cheese)
Salami, must have salami!
Pan fry a small pony with Exxon Virgin Oil.

Bash out pizza base, cover with wizzed TT, cheeze, add topping and place in oven.

While it cooks (20 - 30 min), open bottle of wine, drink wine, open second bottle.

Eat the pizza and drink more wine. And because it has the added zing of pan-fried pony you'll be licking your (or your man's) lips.

Whereas, you know, Dominoes usually takes
half an hour. Plus, pizza dough requires zen
knowledge. Using a phone don't.

Yes, lots of minutes...too many in fact for one as lazy as I. That and it's hard to cook in/on a gas stove when you have no gas aside from that which comes from your ass. Dominoes doesn't even take a half an hour...and I get half price because I work there.

You need not be a Zen master to make some dough. My bread type machine does it and that aint sentient.

Dough is easy and fun and great for spleen venting.

Plus, 80 minutes + lots of wine = better fun

It's hard to get lots of wine in under 20.

And not worth the effort, either.

it does depend on the number of people present too... i must admit that if you feel the need to drink wine very fast, you need better wine or domestic swill instead.
