I've lived out in the rural before. I'd only do it again if there was a pharmacy that was open more than 9-5 mon-fri within a reasonable driving distance, a grocery store, and at least one good restaurant close by (it's nice to be removed from other but boy does cooking for yourself every meal get old fast).
I went and had a pile of kids so I have to do it everyday. Oh my god I’m tired.
And what was I thinking?
Every time you figure out what's for dinner bam you gotta do it again.
We have to kids and cook every day. We have about 12 dishes we cycle through, plus a new dish every couple of weeks. Plan for a week and shop for it accordingly.
Before the kids i would go to the local supermarket, that, regardless of the city i lived in, never was more than 10 Minutes away by foot. I'd figure out what i was feeling like cooking once i was
But it is nice to have other options, like ordering food, for the very lazy and very stressful days. This i would give up for a nice place in nature though.
I don't understand this at all. I go out to eat like 4 times a year, and that's only on long car trips I end up stopping at a fast-food joint. I was amazed when I found out city people think of McDonald's as cheap food. Y'all must be made of money.
