No, I had a family weekend. voice-verified

We only got back from the States. voice-verified

And then there's a family holiday we always do with three other families to Inishboffin. voice-verified

So I thought long and hard about it. voice-verified

But yeah, to arrive back from America, to dump the kids, to go... voice-verified

It just didn't seem right. voice-verified

But I had absolute FOMO 10 times over and I will be there next year for sure. voice-verified

You had a great time. voice-verified

Yeah, that gave me the serious FOMO, the Billy Scurry DJ photos. voice-verified

But I want to talk to you about dinner, because that's something on my big holiday and break, I said, right, what do I want to do with this new energy, this reset when I come back? voice-verified

What are some of the things I want to implement? voice-verified

And to voice-verified

have my enthusiasm for food return. voice-verified

I had got very lazy, very bored of cooking. voice-verified

At about five o'clock, I'd be like, oh God, what am I going to cook for dinner? voice-verified

Grab a chicken breast, grab some potatoes, grab some veg. voice-verified

Fine, but I wanted to bring back some excitement. voice-verified

How do you manage that? voice-verified

Because I know everybody is like, what do we have to cook for dinner tonight? voice-verified

It's one of life's tricky, tricky decisions. voice-verified
