I need the "just got off a closing shift and sure as hell don't wanna cook anything, but I'm broke so i guess I gotta make something real quick" cookbook.
Preferably with not-junk food.

Get The Everlasting Meal by Tamar Adler. It will change your whole shit.

Sounds awesome, thanks my dude.

I doubled down on some Spaghetti. And by doubled down .. I mean I made the sauce yesterday and then chilled it and then brought it back up to temp and added spices and shit tonight before the lady's dad came for dinner. It was fabulous if I may say so

The trick is to toast it on medium low heat before cooking it. Preferably, buy cumin seeds, toast those, then grind them in a mortar and pestle prior to cooking; most store-bought cumin powders (*cough*McCormick*cough*) aren't toasted prior to pulverising so you're left with more dirty, BO aromas and less floral profile.

Hell yes. I like to toast and grind an entire jar at once. I go through cumin fast enough that I'm not too worried about it losing aroma over time.

Well duh.

Friday night's when I have my son, we throw down square pizzas. Well it's actually rectangular pizza, but man it's the best. We slice thin onion and tomato and olives and shit and then put a little extra cheese on it. It's the best. My boy loves him some pizza

Sunday morning egg salad for football, but we're out of bread. It also started snowing yesterday so there's like 6" of white devil to contend with out on the roads.. and also.. God damn daylight savings time
