Sunny Day

Jacob my son, 
The best drink in this world is plain water, it is the most refreshing thing to drink when you are tired and thirsty. I advise that you be grateful for food because some of your ancestors didn't have much of it. We descended from communities that were faced with shortages of food. In the ancient times a local famine would be a disaster for the people because there was no global supply chain, people would starve and feel hungry all the time. 

I prepare simple but delicious food quite often. One thing I will do is put fusilli pasta  into a clay cerial bowl and fill the bowl with water and spices and a little bit of oil then put it in the microwave oven for 20 minutes. Sometimes I would cook the pasta plain and add mayonnaise to it. The outcome would be the same, a delicious meal that is quick to make and very cheap. 

Sometimes I manage to get a 7.5 kg sack of potatoes for £2 or close to that price in the market place. I would wash the potatoes and put them in my ceramic cooking bowl with pyrex lid and place it in the microwave for 20 minutes, I would then leave the potatoes in the bowl for another 40 minutes and they would continue to cook themselves with stored heat. Then I would put lemon and herb mayonnaise on them and eat them with the skin on. They taste delicious. It takes the potatoes 40 minutes to cool off when they are in the ceramic cooking bowl.
