Something I'm grateful for

July 10th, 2008 at 05:30 pm

My DH will eat anything without complaining or even minding. His mom is a baaaaad cook. I refuse to blame English cooking in general, but her cooking fits the stereotype. DH is happy to eat whatever's put in front of him. He has no qualms about bringing home office leftovers and eating them for dinner.
We don't generally eat leftover office food for dinner, but it's a quality worth cultivating, I think.

My father was a lovely man, but always wanted meat and potatoes and 2 veg for dinner. Anything that smacked of leftovers or thriftiness was scorned.

I do think being willing to challenge your own ideas about all sorts of purchases can really help save.

    Yea, I'm like your father. I would rather not eat then eat leftovers. I blame my mother. She is a bad cook. In the fridge, there was food growing mold, that's how old the leftovers were. So, yea, I don't eat leftovers even if they are a day old.

    Really?
    What about leftover restaurant food?
    There is really nothing happier than knowing there's yesterday's Chinese leftovers for lunch when I come home from school.
