Matt's Diary

I'm sorry about your Mum Matt. My sister & brother-in-law died in 2005 too. I will always miss them. Your Dad might be able to spare you some baking stuff if you ask him. I think you would need Baking paper. It's not expensive & it saves you some washing up, plus you need less oil.

I grew up baking and cooking but I have found that Youtube is an amazing resource! There is a video for EVERYTHING. I've learned to knit, play the guitar and sew using videos. If you want to do it, you can. Also, I watch a lot of Food Network. I rarely actually cook anything from there but they describe spices and dishes in a way that I think "i'd like to use that spice in...(whatever I made last week that I'll make again).

You'll get it!

Also, your dog is awesome!

Yeah I use YouTube a lot also. I check out if they have a "how to use the oven video."

Thanks, sorry about your sister and brother-in-law. I'll ask him next time I see him. I actually have baking paper that use to wrap my sandwiches in.

Yeah, I can definitely do without the pizza but at least its only on cheat days and not every day. FYI don't be sorry, it's good you are willing to call me out at times. :)

Today is another day Matt. Enough of the rage eating. You're stuck with him for now. You can be in control of your own life, but not the nation's. Be healthy Matt xo

That was a one time thing don't worry lol. I'm still pissed off, but eating a bunch of crap isn't going to help any.
 
As Barack Obama said in his speech, after the election results were announced-
"We all go forward with a presumption of good faith in our fellow citizens, because that presumption of good faith is essential to a vibrant and functioning democracy."
We must hope.
I didn't think you would undo all your good work Matt :)
