Have you experienced arriving home, and you feel so tired and hungry and you want to eat right away but there's no food in the kitchen nor left-overs in the refrigerator? You don't want to go out for you are already so tired from a long day of work. Youre house help just went home for a day off.

Yup! Many times. If I'm not very tired, I'll just head down to buy some food. If I'm really tired, I'll bathe and sleep. If I am lazy to buy food, I'll call for delivery. We have MacDonald's, KFC, Pizzas and etc delivery services here.

Yeah,it sometimes happened to me and i will get frustrated because i am damn hungry that time.That is if im damn hungry!My mum will face my frustration and so sometimes when she on a good mood,she will asked me what i want and cook for me.But at times,she will get frustrated back on my frustration.Hahaha! I usually lazy to get out from the house to buy food after i reached home.Sometimes the instant noodles at home may not help because im sick of it!hehe My mum do cook but when she's out of idea of what to cook,she tends to cook later than the usual time. It also happened to my dad and other siblings when they got back from work/school,no food at home when they really hungry..they will start to be angry.That's bad i know.But its rarely happened.

If this happened to me when I was still single, I know I won't freak out. If there is literally no food anywhere inside the house, I guess I don't have any choice but to buy even a candy just to satisfy my hunger pangs. And while my stomach feeds on its juices, I'm going to cook myself a dinner. I'm not a picky person and I could live on oil and salt as viand on rice; honestly. I'm more concerned on my husband's behaviour when we get home from a long trip and find no cooked food in the house. This has happened to us a lot of times already. We share a rented house with my four younger siblings; due to my mom's request when we got married. There are times when we arrive home late and naturally, we are very tired from the five to six hours of trip on a bus. We still have to cook rice and viand for ourselves. My husband easily looses his temper when this happens and sometimes, he would bang things at home just to show his anger with my siblings. I, on the other hand, feels caught with the situation. He is my husband but I can't shout at my siblings for not cooking for us because they're not our house help.

Maybe I'll fruits or cookies or whatever leftover is there.But if not even a single grain of food stuff is at home when I get back tired,then I'll pick up the phone,order some food tobe delivered quickly and then put on some music and wait for the food to arrive.Then I would feast on the delivered delicious food stuuf and go to sleep.lol
