going out for dinner

Hi savypat, We all need to get out once in a while and enjoy a meal that we had no part in preparing. We don't get out a lot because we are on a fixed income but make sure that we do at least once a month. Blessings.

That sounds soooooo familiar! Lots of times I don't want to cook so much that I don't want to eat. All the tastes just seem to go bland or something. I don't know why that is but it wouldn't matter what I made on those days because I wouldn't TASTE it as it went in my mouth.

Hey pat! I know how you feel! It happens to all of us! Like tonight! I just couldn't decide what I wanted to eat for dinner. My boyfriend works in a college cafeteria cleaning up and he gets his meals there because he gets home at 10:00pm. So it was just dinner for me. I took out some bacon and decided to make myself some french toast with it! I am happy now! Sometimes it takes a simple meal like that to just make it! I know that when you're feeding a family that might not work out as well, but simple meals are sometimes fun!

yes i have those days so i either order in or we go out , on sundays it's family day so we go out most of the time so we all get the day off, in the summer i really don't eat much because it makes me sick for some reason so i only eat a little so i put things on the grill flip them and call it a day i hate being in the kitchen when it's hot outside it drives me nuts but i can't aford to go out every night or call out every night so i just grill it.

It's better to eat less.If don't like to another dinner don't do that.

I only dine out when someone invites me and then I go to good restaurants. Fastfood doesn´t agree with me. I love to cook and I invite a lot for diner. I suppose I dine out about 3 or 4 times a month and have company at home at least another 4 times.

yes i have those days to!i dont like cooking to much im starting to get more used to it but i would def rather go out or order in:Di think im gona order pizza tonight:Dyummm

Sometimes its the whole experience of getting out and being waited on that is the real enjoyment. I think its expensive too, and cant afford to do it all the time which makes it more special for me when i do. I love looking at all the amazing choices on the menu but i usually just pick an old time favourite or slight variation thats not to risky becauses im scared to pay all that money on something im not sure i will like. I love seafood but when that is too expensive i like to try a salad or pasta dish.

Hello, tonight for dinner it is going to be taco bell so I won't have to cook either. Maybe 2 times a week we get take out or go to some place for dinner.Friday night used to be fajitas night but that was when my b/f lived with me but he had to stay back where we used to live so he could continue working. Im not good at making fajitas but maybe I should have my b/f show me how he does it when we get to see each other every other week.

most people like to eat out because it is a change of taste. well, i eat out regularly but still i feel that eating home made food is much better than eating outside.
