"Cooking for one imposes special constraints"

Yes, it's a lot easier to get out the cereal box at the end of the day. [Hey, I *like* Special K!]

Up until now, Alec wouldn't eat anything I'd cook anyway, so there wasn't any point. The fact that his weight has risen by 30 lbs has put stress on his knees and ankles - pain there is apparently not unusual as a side effect of chemo - so the only thing he *can* do is lose weight. And it's no fun to diet by oneself, so I'm doing it with him. So, no more mass chocolate ingestion. Sigh.
