Mama what is for lunch? My goodness!! Ga ba kare, what are you cooking? On days like this I never tell them what I am cooking. Reasons being, 1. I don’t know yet and 2.

I don’t need them chiming in about how, we already had this, or I don’t like that.

Managing wastage has a positive advantage on the pocket and the environment ultimately.
