The Bachelors Way

The bachelor sits alone eating his microwaved dinner the commercials say there tasty but he begs to differ tonight its pot roast and beans for dessert....a lousy brownie to be honest i wouldn't serve this to jailbirds locked up down at the county There easy to fix and cheap or so they say comes complete with a sheet of plastic encased in a collectible tin tray the advertising is clever using words like low fat and carb free but can someone explain what is a vegetable medley? The bachelor unhappy with the evenings cuisine grabs a book and takes a pill its for insomnia not the kind to give you a thrill shortly, the words are running together the pill is doing its job in a few more years its teeth in a glass and no more corn on the cob The bachelor accepts that he's challenged in cooking and frozen nutrition will have to suffice but what he cant understand is why it takes him a half an hour to cook a batch of minute rice
