You are welcome. Those shrimp were tasty. I owe you a hotel room on the next road trip.

We never really eat fast food anymore. It has helped me lose weight tremendously and our food is much better. Honestly, its a little more expensive for a small family like mine, but the food is much better. I can see how fast food for a larger family could be more economical. Groceries are super expensive these days, we could actually eat much cheaper buying out, but I've quit eating fried stuff and we all feel better, plus I'm losing more weight.

About the only food we eat out anymore is on the weekends and that is from my buddy's bbq joint, and its not really "fast food" they cook stuff like we do at home. Fresh ingredients, fresh made stuff, full menu of home cooked meals, with bbq as a bonus.

I think you're the only person here that gets a balanced meal complete with gourmet presentation every night. It's kinda depressing. Sometimes a man just needs a bucket of chicken. If your wife still gives you sex also, I'm completely jealous. But I still want that bucket of chicken.

I enjoy cooking also but I could give a **** less about how it looks on the plate. As long as it tastes great. Thought you were married. Or maybe you are. Lol.

I marinated some thickish boneless pork chops this evening and grilled them, along with some fresh kale cooked with diced potatoes. And a handful of little cherry tomatoes, just to make sure I got some vitamin C today.

Well you do it right, you make some beautiful meals. Artistry on plates, you have a gift man.

Hell no, I was just mentioning the fact that for a family as small as mine we could actually eat out cheaper than we can buy groceries and cook at home if we wanted to because the food that would be wasted when we buy groceries. The quantities are so large that they go to waste by the time we would eat them.
