Currently backpacking and whenever I'm in a place for a couple of days I buy a bag of potatoes.
They're CHEAP and delicious with everything, and you can make them in the microwave.
Fave baked potato recipes:
- Tuna + Cheese (canned tuna mashed with chopped onion, hot sauce, and mayo) top with cheese
- Taco --- all the taco fixings or just black beans pan fried with taco seasoning, salsa and cheese
- fried mushrooms and onions w sour cream and steak (fancy)
- Regular baked potato toppings (sour cream, bacon, chives, cheese, etc)
- I hear baked beans and cheese is also good??? will try
- Spaghetti sauce, ground beef and cheese

One baked potato recipe I really like uses red pepper hummus, feta, skhug, a sparing amount of diced jalapeno, chopped dill, and a squirt of lemon.

me and my gf put them in the airfryer for an hour at 200 (celsius) with salt, pepper and olive oil. then we take them out, open them up and mash them inside, mix that with some salted butter, put some salt and pepper on top, then grated cheese, then chilli con carne, and then more cheese. so good and it makes you feel sooooo warm❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
photo perhaps doesn’t do it justice

Amazing cold just eaten on the go, very chic with a simple side salad dressed with a red wine vinaigrette. It is humble, and can be made well in advance in large quantities. Personally my tip is to slice the potatoes and rinse them and then microwave them until slightly cooked, so you can use less oil and the whole process goes by much quicker. Of course you can use other vegetables but potato is the classic and favorite.

Join a club or take a class! It's funny how chatting with 9 people in real life & clicking with 1 person feels like such a win when I know if I talked to 8 people I don't click with online I would feel soul sucking failure. We're just animals, find a herd.

I was isolated growing up.
Isolated in the regular run-of-the-mill homeschooled way. Growing up in rural Canada where everything is a minimum of a 30 minute drive away. Groceries, entertainment, activites, friends - and nothing in between but wheat and sloughs and cows.
Born to people who were not only the youngest child in each of their families, deeply introverted, and whose external social situations also put them in the way of easy ridicule.
It was the sixties, man.
My experience of the world for the first 18 years of my life was through my mother's eyes, primarily. My beliefs were filtered through her opinions, and my actions were dictated by her whims.
On top of that when I was 13 my family moved overseas to facilitate my dad's job. Moved, not to a town, or a an expat compound... but to a vacation village, which we inhabited September - May until I was 18.
We went back to Canada in the summers, dooming me to a cycle of social deprivation and catchup, never getting ahead or making meaningful connections.
None of this is stuff I really tell anyone, anymore. At 26 it's all far enough away that it doesn't come up in my current self synopsis when meeting new friends.
As my world expands, and I meet and love more and more people I'm so aware of how the more people that you meet and interact with the more you have a sense of your own place in the world.
Every time I have a new romance I learn what love is out there for me. Each new experience changes my views on past experiences. What I like and what I don't. The kind of love I can accept, how I want to be treated.
Every time I make a new friend I learn that there really are all kinds of people in the world, and that growing up it's not that there was something wrong with me, it's just that I didn't necessarily vibe with the 10 people I interacted with.
