SINGLES IN THE KITCHEN!

Okay, it's the first morning after you have moved into your new place and you're hungry, single and the stomach is growling. The refrigerator is empty, your cabinets are empty, and your stove is nice and shiny and devoid of any utensils that can be used for cooking. You give up this time and go to the nearest fast food restaurant, but a steady diet of fast food and restaurant food will make your wallet skinnier and your belly larger.

When is it time to start cooking when you broke up with your ex and moved into your own place? Do you buy pots, pans and groceries right away, or wait until you either have no money or can't handle the taste of fast food any more? Who can go longer without cooking, men or women?
