No bookshelf, but I have a stack of physics and math texts that I either like the illustrations in, equation aesthetics of, or that I think/thought would be a useful reference one day.
Peanut butter, Coca-Cola, chocolate bar of some kind—usually Reese’s something, fresh doughnuts (powdered jelly, Bavarian cream, and/or Boston cream), salty snack of some kind—jalapeño chip or sesame sticks or cheese puffs or crab chips, pork tenderloin, chicken thighs, salami (type varies), beans (black, pinto, or black eyed peas), butter, sour cream or crema, buttermilk or heavy cream if I’m bakin*, eggs, tortillas, baguette or ciabatta or some bread like that, tomato paste, onions, garlic, peppers, lemon and lime and some other kind of fruit (bananas, strawberries, plums, or oranges are typical), green or red leaf lettuce, carrots, celery (strictly for making broth—i kinda hate celery), yogurt, Muenster cheese, Oaxaca cheese, whatever spice I ran out of (most often cinnamon, star anise, cloves, cardamom, nutmeg, tumeric, all spice, oregano, or thyme—i like to make a (sp)iced tea often and almost always use oregano and thyme on meat), and a bottle of red wine for cooking.
Thermostat does nothing in the summer and is around 69 in the winter.
I don't consider myself single at all right now, but...
My kinda guy, if it's his bookshelf; the books look interesting, the food looks good, he has a Frenchie bulldog (preferably named Peeve), and the thermostat is set at an economical level.
Every since we retired and moved to the beach I haven't had a bookshelf. ☹ Sadly my wife's health has declined over the past few years. I now do all the shopping and cooking. I don't like cooking so our refrigerator is never loaded up. I prefer to think about what I want and get the ingredients that day. Since we live in Southern Florida our thermostat is set to 77 during the day and 75 at night. During the winter the temps are so nice that we can shut the AC off and open all the doors. Here is a recent picture of Miss Padoodle.
@SW-User Yes, and we learn it by actually seeing a little about what the person is like, rather than by reading what the person tells us they are like!
