eat out less often

Hey I think I’m doing great at this! Saving lots of money…but definitely not time. Definitely love knowing exactly what’s in my food!

If I keep this up for another week I’ll consider this a successful goal!! finally!

This is a hard one because I don’t eat out for the fun of it. For example, this whole week we’ve had an insane heatwave and I wasn’t gonna start thinking about cooking, let alone cook.

I don’t feel eating out is MUCH more expensive than cooking fresh meals ever day, in fact, I feel eating out minimizes food wastage (in a bizarre way). Veggies are very expensive around here… and unless I cook something as soon as I get it it tends to go bad (yes, in the fridge).

Regardless, eating out lunch and dinner daily for a week (although I made “healthy” choices) makes me feel icky.

So I realized why I was eating out—because I loved the company of others, even if I didn’t know them. And I loved the convenience of having variety.

Then my friend suggested coming over with his own leftovers and we could have a leftover smorgasboard. One man’s leftovers is another man’s more interesting meal!

Voila!
Cheap, social, and the warm energy friends bring into my home makes doing dishes totally worth it.

I think I can say I eat out less often.

sheer poverty is forcing me to get better at this, so hurray, kind of.

Well, this is going to be hard to do but if i keep eating out i’m going to need a bigger overdraft soon…

Lunch, dinner, sushi, whatever….i eat out almost everyday. A sandwich here, a coffee & croissant with a friend there, sushi everytime i can or everytime i go out…it’s never going to end.
Not right now, at least :)

and tonight too :)
I think i’m way too far from achieving this one !!!

Tonight, at the Yoko-Ono, after work….it’s stronger than me.
I just can’t resist sushi.
Is that a crime ?

Tomorrow night….this time is an indian restaurant (wich i don’t particularly like, but it’s my friends choice…and i’ve got very stubborn friends).
