Garth Marenghi's Darkplace
a satire of 80s sci-fi/mystery writers but it takes place in a hospital? It features Matt Berry and Richard Ayoade, need I say more? Free on YouTube :)
Somatic exercises by Colm via YouTube
These videos are gentle, but the effect is noticeable. Colm is calm and direct and the exercises are easy to follow. As someone who used to think MORE PRESSURE MORE HEAT MORE STRETCH would help, this combination of breathing and simple moves was a revelation.
Souper Cubes
This recommendation pairs with the rice cooker, because freezing leftover rice into single serving portions saves so much time. If you are a single person, freezing extra soup or beans into one cup portions means that a quick meal is always on hand. Plus, you can store the frozen food cubes into a freezer bag so you can keep using the trays. Worth every penny.
Black eyed peas with coconut milk
I know this recipe by heart and eat it at least twice a month. Swap the butter for veg oil of your choice, broth can be water. I usually omit the cilantro/green onions for simplicity's sake and will sub a can of crushed tomatoes if I don't have time to go to the store for fresh ones. I usually only use half a can of coconut milk but adjust to your taste. Delicious and satisfying!
