Single Serving

One of the things that annoys the hell out of me is recipes.  Now, I'm a single chick.  Sometimes I don't want to make enough food to feed a family of 4.  I don't want to be stuck with leftovers for the next week, eating the same dish until it's coming out of my ears.    

Why can't things be sold in "easy to divide into single servings" packaging?  I don't want to make a tray of lasagne, only to have to freeze a whole lot.  Ever try to divide something like that into single servings? 

Yeah, yeah, I could just buy a chicken and cut it up, making a different dish with each part every night, but really now, ever try to make lemon chicken in wine for one?

And these cooking shows...they make huge amounts of food, who's going to eat all that?  What's with all the waste?

Anyhow, I made some pumpkin spice peacan pancakes and halved the recipe but still only ate half the pancakes.   Now I have to freeze the rest.  Pain.
