Sunday cooking Batch cooking Make enough for the week cooking Thinking ahead cooking Trying to cook as quickly as I can cooking Saving time in the days to come cooking Saving money cooking Let’s have something from the freezer cooking At least it will be home cooked cooking ‘Please play’ you say ‘and stop your cooking’ ‘Just need a little bit longer’ I reply ‘What about me’ shouts the oven ‘The oil is ready now’ says the frying pan ‘Chop me up, chop me up’ chirp the vegetables ‘Play, play, PLAY’ you shout The cacophony of demands ringing in my ears From the real to the imaginary Everything blurs I fast forward to the days ahead When I wake up from my bed And choose something from the freezer To help life feel a bit easier Batch cooking all the way Just need a little bit longer and then I’ll play.
