Tuesday Night Quickie

Last night, I decided to cook (!) some dinner just for myself, something I hadn't done in a very long time. As I still had some leftover pumpkin from the last book club meeting chez moi which I didn't want to go to waste, I decided to make a quick pumpkin risotto, largely based on my cousin's recipe here. 
It turned out really well and the added advantage is that the leftovers are going to spare me the question "what am I going to have for lunch today?". Also, it was surprisingly quick and makes me question my habit to just cook for guests. The thing is that I have a proper, hot, lunch most work days and am not always in the mood for an actual meal as opposed to just a wedge of cheese or - very tempting - some S&V crisps. 

Another item to add to my already long "things to do when I'm grown up" list...
