This Shit is Pumpkin (P-u-m-p-k-i-n)

I don't want to brag but I just made and ate the most delicious lunch in the world (and yes, it is only 12.25pm and yes, I have fully consumed and cleared the evidence of my midday meal). 

I roasted a zucchini and some pumpkin with salt, pepper and some oil. I made couscous to which I added the roasted vegetables, a diced tomato and a generous handful of dried cranberries (my new one true love. Holy shit, dried cranberries are delicious. They kick sultana's ass, dried apricot's ass, all the dried fruits' asses! And yes, the grammar of the previous sentence is entirely questionable even though I pondered over it for a good few minutes). I mixed it in a bowl with some leftovers from last night (I made fish tacos last night so had a small bowl of leftover coleslaw, salsa and avocado) and topped it with a gooey fried egg (just the type Little Mishelle loves with the runny yolk coating it all in a delicious, animal-byproducty sauce).

I just came. It was amazing. 

I love cooking during the holidays. So far, I've been making myself enough food on Monday to last me for lunch for the rest of the week. The first week, I just roasted pumpkin and carrots for salads. The second week, I roasted pumpkin, carrots and made beanballs. This week, see above. As you can see, there is a recurring theme of pumpkin because pumpkin is fucking delicious. 

I am going to miss this culinary shit once uni starts up again. Crying inside. 

Oh, and I just found out that that douchebaggy new manager of mine basically got fired this week. He was told by HR to either get his shit together or leave. It is amazing.

Please make me lunch.
I'll pass on the leftovers and egg though, despite how perfect it sounds for me.
