I miss the Porridge Club, by Karine Tomlin

Working from home has its benefits:

• I hardly use my car anymore so I’m being kinder to the environment;
• This in turn has encouraged me to go food shopping by foot (minimum 3 times a week, as they is a limit to what I can carry);
• I don’t have to rush home at the end of the day to pick up the kids from school;
• I get to spend more time with the kids (although whether this is a benefit can be debated);
• And so on…

But of course, working from home has its downsides:

• I miss the interaction with human beings (no offence to my husband and kids);
• Not having a proper office at home, I’m sharing the dining table with my husband who is also working from home and the kids when they are eating. It is not ideal;
• Having to share our home internet with the kids’ constant watching mindless YouTube videos is challenging;
• And so on…

But the one thing I miss the most being not being in the office is…

A decent bowl of porridge (how sad is that)!

As you can see on the photo, whilst I knew I hadn’t mastered the art of home porridge, today’s my reminder:  Never Ever take your eyes off your porridge
