I am having an unhelpfully bad stomach day. I haven't got a lot done; I have bought food, which is handy, and done a fair amount of laundry, and checked when Clearing starts properly (vacancies are advertised from 18th August). I think tonight's jobs will be more laundry, cooking tasty supper, printing and reading Bladelands information, and tracking down my list of job websites.

Oh, the pain, the discomfort, the running up and down the stairs! I do hate this condition. I wish I could work out how to manage it better. I suspect a trip to the doctor is in order - one in which I am very firm about needing some serious support.

Foodgasm!

I am currently eating the yummiest impromptu meal ever!

Take one boneless pork thing, one portion of rice noodles, one sachet of instant miso soup, half an onion, one clove of garlic, and several spoonsful of sweetcorn.

Heat a wok containing a good splosh of sesame oil (and, if you are crazy, some soy sauce). Snip your pork into bite-size pieces. Slice up your garlic very fine, and your onion quite chunky. Meanwhile boil the kettle.

Chuck your pork into the wok. Stir it about to make sure it does not stick - repeat this frequently so it cooks on all sides and all the way through. Add the garlic. Add the onion

Put the miso in a saucepan and add about a cupful of boiling water. Bubble the thing gently. Add the noodles and a splosh of soy sauce and cook on a low low heat for the time it says on the noodle packet (four minutes for mine).

Add the sweetcorn to the wok, along with more soy sauce, and stir lots. Check the meat is cooked and the onion is softened. When the noodles are done, tip the contents of the saucepan (liquid and all) into the wok, and bubble like crazy till it looks good and you want to eat it. Then pour into a biggish bowl and devour it. Recommended cutlery = fork and spoon.
