Drive Past the Drive-through Window!
There are times, like at the end of a particularly long and stressful workday, when I just don't want any part of preparing a meal, even if I did plan well and have all the ingredients I need on hand. I just don't want to be in the kitchen and I certainly don't want to think about washing pots and pans and dishes before I call it a night. On days like this, all I want to do is drive over to the nearest fast food window, pick up a bag of comfort food and stuff myself while I sit on the couch and watch TV. It's almost always only with a supreme effort of will that I do drive right past the drive-through window and head for home -- unless I know I have ingredients for a hot, fresh tortilla pizza.
