Yep, we try so hard NOT to eat out, but time constraints get us every once in a while. :roll: Cooking at home is such a calming, enjoyable thing for me. But I do hit the roof when I see the cost of fresh food that is so much better for my family than the cheaper prepackaged/fast food crap. Your stuck either way. :? We plan to go off grid this spring/summer. We are going to attempt a garden while we are out there. Hard work, fresh home grown food...it'll teach us to appreciate what we have and what we can accomplish even more.
