Omg I mean you can buy frozen paratha, they might be on the small side but wow what an idea 🩷

Hear me out: if you want to use lentils, how about a curry burrito? Make a coral lentil curry, pop a couple spoonfuls on a wrap, add rice, some veggies of choice if you want, roll it up and freeze.

I've never done that before and I don't know if it already exists but seeing your post inspired me and now I'm hungry.

I'm not a native speaker of English, and I've only recently learnt that the 'blueberries' I grew up foraging from the woods are in fact bilberries. Which is kind of interesting because although most people will call them blueberries, we have a regional name for them, 'brimbelles', that's kind of similar to bilberries when you squint your eyes.

Personally I emulsify my cheese fondue with a bit of cornstarch mixed in white wine. Do you absolutely 100% need sodium citrate to make mac and cheese? It seems a bit overkill to me.

My mac and cheese approximation consists in a liquidy béchamel sauce with a handful of cheese of the day. Perhaps try your recipe without sodium citrate and see if you like it?

It's also rather metal to ride a motorbike with absolutely no safety gear of any kind!

One of my favourite Ajahns said, the Buddha was right about so many things, why would he be wrong about rebirth? I'm skeptical but the more I think about it, the more I think there might be some substance to the claim. I mean I do remember saying stuff when I was very little like 'when I was a grown up', and it seems it's a very widespread phenomenon. So yeah I try to keep an open mind and investigate rather than reject the idea because of conditioning or blindly embrace the concept without putting due diligence into it.
