DH and I eat at home 9 times out of 10 and I pack leftovers for lunch most work days. We aren't perfect and when overtime for both of us coincides or when one of us is ill we may eat out more often or order in Won Ton soup.
I cook at home about six days out of seven. Of course, this includes casseroles and leftovers from the freezer and things like canned soup. Still, we try to keep eating out and take out to once a week. A weekly menu, while not set in stone, helps a lot. So does a large freezer.
We cook just about every dinner at home. My tips: plan the week's meals in advance, make a grocery list, and only grocery shop once per week. I also sometimes do prep for the week's meals on Sunday afternoon -- chop veggies, assemble sauces, etc. This helps a lot during the week! For nights we have something going on, I do something simple like tacos, BLTs, or quesadillas.
Lately I've been trying to cook more, about 3-4x a week, but I would love to eventually cook almost every day. It's just hard living in NYC where there's so much good food to be had and you have to lug around your groceries.
We've been making it a point to cook all but three meals a week at home. I do most of the bigger recipes and PiC has some go-tos. We get up to three passes on the the weekend starting Friday night to do take out or eat out, and I'm happy to say we're not regularly using all of those either. It's a treat not to have to worry about cooking every single meal but we do quite a lot so we know we're eating more healthy foods for less. We also do better when we are mindful about buying fresh produce!
I donated my eggs 4 times, got paid $8,000 each time. I'm unable to donate any more, as last time I donated one of my ovaries got hyperstimulated during the procedure and I almost died. But it was fun while it lasted, it's nice to help out families who can't expand. As a side note, the procedure is quite painful. While you're not awake during the retrieval, your ovaries swell up due to the eggs being removed from them and you get bad cramping for a few days.
Pretty much every night! (Okay, last night we had take out chicken...) But I honestly think eating at home about 90% of the time is the best way we save money. And we eat so well!
I cook at home all the time! I make a meal and make sure to make a lot to have leftovers for at least 3 days. I make a lot of casseroles with chicken. I do not want to cook every day. It is time consuming. But I love Crock Pot Meals because they are easy to make and I use two Crock Pots because I am cooking for 4 people, and I need leftovers. Making a lot of dinners at once and eating the leftovers really will save you a lot of time!
I cook almost every night. Eating out is generally just a special occasion thing. I also pack my lunch, so I guess that counts as cooking. My go to is stir fry. I usually have all the ingredients and it is quick.
Unless there is visible evidence of frequent movement of the type of furniture, or fixtures in walls, that isn't ordinarily moved, i.e., half circled carpet marks on one end of a china cabinet, worn out screw heads on electrical outlets., etc.
You safest hiding spot is going to be a location where it is normal for you to frequent and doesn't cause a lot of noise or disruption in the surroundings when you access it (it's true that the majority of thefts are by someone familiar rather than random strangers).
If you cook often, and your shelves are well stocked, a bag of flour placed, along with a few others, is a perfect spot. But if you eat out often and store only beer and frozen pizzas in your fridge... then the warn out bag of flour leaving fresh trails in the back of your top cabinet is highly suspect! lol
YEP, SCAM!!!!
I just received an identical response (text) from an "Anthony" who is interested in buying my piano. No questions, no negotiating, but is willing to send me an extra $54.00 over my asking price. He claims once his Certified Check has been received and cashed, he will arraign to have his "Private Shipping Company" pick up the item. Wow, what a nice guy. His phone # is 1-405-730-9642. Beware.
Truly amazing article! I personally use positive affirmations several times a day and visualize my goals.
The third point is also very interesting! Every time I pay (give money away), I say in my mind: "The money that I give away, I expect within a month in three times larger quantity."

I cook at home during the week but go out to eat on weekends.
Thanks for the bit of wisdom from hipsterdom. Overlooking the glasses was a major oversight on my part:-)
Cook most meals at home with fresh ingredients from the vegetable garden
Breakfast every day, lunch and dinner two times a week maximum.
My family eats most of our meals at home. Maybe 5 lunches and perhaps a "date night" dinner during the month.
We try to cook at least four nights a week. We usually have a night where we eat with our parents, and two nights where we dine out.
We make all our meals these days!
On average, I'd say 6-8.

I cook every day. My go to quick meal is pasta with marinara sauce

Linalool is in Seventh Generation’s Natural Lavender Scent Fabric Softener that you suggested. It says so right on the back.

My favourite DIY Halloween costume is a ghost
I know! Imagine: if we were to work out that much every day, we would all be ripped!
I would say a ghost or a pumpkin

And it really works.
