Just popping in before bed

Bob and I both had appointments in Wichita, so I took off work early. By the time we were both finished and on the road again we were both famished. We chose to go into Wichita and eat at Cracker Barrel. The food was very good, but a bit pricey. He had an omelette, and I had salmon. My sides were broccoli and coleslaw. The portions were generous, but honestly we could have bought a weeks worth of groceries at that price. We are home and I have had a shower and picked out tomorrow's clothes. Guess I am about ready for bed. Hurray, tomorrow is Thursday---or "Friday Eve" as some would say.

At least you didn't have to cook and clean up! I'm looking forward to going to Red Lobster and Longhorn Steakhouse. I have a gift card for Applebee's; so I want to go there as well.

Eating out is getting very expensive

It sounds like you both had a long but productive day, especially with appointments and travel involved. No wonder you were famished by the time you finished! A good meal really hits the spot after a busy day like that.

Eating outside can be convenient at times but then it might be a bomb on our budget. Well, once in a while is okay. We go for outside dining only on special occasions. Glad that the food was good. There are times when they are not worth the price you spend on them.

Hope the food was worth the price.

I hope the appointments went well today. I hope you have a peaceful night. We've had cards for free food at Subway for years but, every time I suggest we go there to eat, Pretty makes up excuses not to go. *shrug*

It's amazing what you have to pay for a meal nowadays, even something quite simple.

Eating out is just so, so expensive. But at least the food was good, that's something.
