The Weekly Friday Feast

NikNikSenior Contributor22 May 2015, 5:12 pm AEST

The Weekly Friday Feast

Thank goodness it's Friday (or TGIF as some say!)

We thought we would start a thread where we could come together every Friday and "share a meal" and debrief about our week.

To participate, there are 2 requirements -

1) Bring a (virtual) plate of food

2) Bring a topic of discussion

So pull up a virtual chair, post a picture or description of what (virtual) dish you're bringing along and say hi and let us know how your week was.

Looking forward to seeing you at our first Friday Feast!

Chat soon 🙂

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

@Former-Member, stressing about it not only makes it harder but could make it happen (self fulfilling prophecy), try not to get ahead of yourself. Live in the moment, one day at a time. Know your own values / boundaries & deal-breakers. Choose your battles carefully. Respond, don't react (calm down first). They're big kids now, they can do their own washing etc. You'll be fine. 💗

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Thanks @Former-Member for the support. I've been trying so hard this week to do all the right things. Now it's eating me alive. Anyway I can't do crisis on here again. I'm a ******* joke. 😔

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi everyone, Im bringing a yummy roast chicken with lots of vegies such as roast potatoes and a delicious cheesecake. My topic of conversation dealing with MI issues affecting finding a romantic partner. My social phobia makes me fearful of meeting men.

Friday Night Feast

Tonight, I am having curried mince with assorted vegetables,some home made chutney, a small glass of

ginger wine,and for dessert, some bread and butter pudding with a dollop of cream and a sprinkling of

almond meal on top. It's cold weather, so need something spicy and a warm dessert - yum! Enjoy Friday

Night Feast, forum members and may the weekend be a good one, too. Cheers from Bimby2

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

My virtual plate contains nothing anymore.

My topic is how do you handle anger? It's been getting a little out of hand here lately.

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi everyone
I'm sick of my food atm. All I've had lately is chicken pot carrots and broccoli. The first 3 nights that's all I had. I miss my pasta. I complained to the nurse who will pass on the complaint. Another patient complained as well. Hope everyone is enjoying their dinner.

Goodevening @Bridgetjones @Former-Member and @Bimby2

Anybody want some veggie paella?

Some great ideas for discussion tonight:

1.) @Former-Member has asked how to handle anger. I recall @Former-Member mentioning that she felt angry a while back (sorry if it wasn't you LJ!).

2.) and @Bridgetjones has asked how people manage an MI in a relationship? @Former-Member and @MoonGal are inrelationship maybe they have some thoughts to share.

Anyone else around tonight?

@Former-Member @Jacques @Former-Member @Former-Member @Angels333 @Mazarita @Faith-and-Hope @Ali585 @Appleblossom @Crazy_Bug_Lady and anyone else who I haven't mentioned. Please feel free to bring along/invite anyone to dinner!

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

@Former-Member I've noticed that when I'm angry it's usually a build of stress and worry. Anger, I've heard is a secondary emotion, meaning that it often arises when other stuff, other emotions are not resolved. There's usally someting more than anger. Is this something that you can relate to?

@Bridgetjones may I ask if you are currently in a relationship or wanting to pursue one?
