Of food and being careful

Remember the macaroni bake I wrote about last year? I ended that post saying that I would try making it with leftovers, so that there would be one thing less to cook. I have done it a few times since, and this time I've got photos!

The other day I stir-fried minced beef with carrots and capsicum, making a dish to accompany my rice.

(okay, it was just before transferring it to a dish)

I put the leftovers in the fridge (you can put it in the freezer if you want to keep it longer) and then used it to make the macaroni bake:

It's penne instead of macaroni, but who cares? You can use spaghetti if you want.

Besides, today while playing badminton in sports class, I totally whacked myself. Twice. I've whacked myself before (when you're an idiot like me, it's hard to avoid :P) but never this badly... I first whacked myself on my fingers (I believe it was while doing a serve, a simple one while warming up, so I just didn't move my hand away in time), which left me wincing for the next 5 or 10 minutes, maybe even 15! And guess what, as I'm typing this, one of my fingers is still smarting!

Well, the other one was more "normal", it had already happened several times before; there was this lovely smash I couldn't resist making, and I whacked myself on the leg (with the momentum of the racquette) At least the smash was good, or else it'd have been for nothing! lol

Hopefully this will remind myself to be more careful next time!! But then, I never learn...
