To feel like a proper adult

I'm making my dinner.
Dh and DS21 are away. I'm on my own for the first time in over 20 years. I've either had dd, DS and dh with me or just the kids when dh worked away or just dh when the kids stayed elsewhere(babysitters or a friends.)

When dh used to work away I barely used to cook. Probably just heat something up or eat crisps or have salad. Even the kids dinners were minimal effort. It just seemed hard to cook for just us.

I'm making a lamb mince dish with pak choi, oyster mushrooms and coriander and I feel like I've achieved something.

I'm still waiting for the day when I feel like a proper adult. 43 last birthday and no sign of it yet!

YABU because you've made me hungry and when I get back tonight I'm going to bung something in the oven which won't be as yummy as your dinner.
