As of midnight, I have:

- washed and cut and apportioned the french beans, the cabbage, the broccoli (prep for veg is far easier)
- soaked the dried mushrooms; sliced and diced;
- sliced and minced a quarter cabbage, slightly salted;
- washed and scrubbed 1 bag of water chestnuts; peeled and diced them;
- washed and sliced a bunch of spring onions;
- deveined a handful of shrimp; half chopped coarsely, half chopped into a rough paste;
- sliced a smallish slab of salmon and seasoned with sliced ginger and apportioned for future lunch/dinner;
- deboned the chicken thighs and seasoned and apportioned for lunch/dinner;
- sliced the pork loin for pork chops, tenderised, seasoned and apportioned for lunch/dinner;

and

- mixed the filling for dumplings (mmm, five spice powder). Will wrap tomorrow.

Cooking is hard. But I ate all the water chestnuts that weren't being used, so \o/
