We very rarely eat out any more, cause Joey always ends up ruining it by crying the moment the food arrives, squirming, shouting, puking up over us, yada yada yada, and we never have anyone to babysit so we just don't eat out anymore.

But we do get a takeaway every Saturday night.

How often do you eat out? or get takeaways?  ?

At any rate, being a Vegetarian who doesn't take dairy produce and will only eat free range organic eggs, can you imagine how difficult it is for me to get a meal at all? lol. I order the same thing every Sat night from a Vegetarian restaurant. lol. How do you cope Lindalu?  =

We used to eat out like 2-4 times a week but it got old fast, because it was getting really expensive feeding all of us out to eat or drive through, and also I noticed when we quite going out to eat so much I dropped like 4-6lbs, so a win win situation, I now cook all the time and we go out to eat maybe once or twice a month now and it's fun to try new meals, almost like going out to eat, the kids and my husband and I will think of things we want to cook that month or try or something and add it to the monthly menu so we kinda know what we be eating that month and that helps when I grocery shop to knowing what extra ingredients I need, we don't eat the food in a particular order basically I'll look at the ist and see what sounds good that day and what I feel like cooking also I let 1 child a day come in the kitchen by thereselves with no one else but me and that child so we can visit one on one and they get to help me cook or even pick the meal or the desert on some occasions if I haven't already. Anyhow wow I started to ramble, lol we enjoys meals at home much more because mommies ass doesn't jiggle as much when we eat her food!!!!! lol  =

My Husband does not cook.....instead he suggested when ever I do not feel like cooking just to get takeout .......sometimes it is once every couple weeks, sometimes it may be a couple times a week........usually on his days off.........  =

I dont eat out much either as briseis said its hard eating out being a vegetarian. Every now and again I will order Tie rice with vegetables or I will get Burger Kings french fries and onion rings. Maybe if I feel like driving far I will hit the Olive garden and have a soup and salad.  =

We go through spurts where we are bad. I don't like my 17 month old eating take out so we don;t do it often. It's tough to make dinner right now though because Olivia wants to nurse constantly from 6-7 and my husband doesn't get home until 6. Many nights we don't feel like cooking right now.  =

We eat out about once a week as a family,but takeaway's are very rare these day's cause of the fat content in them i have to be careful,what with being on tablet's.

We used to have a takeaway on a saturday night after Andrew had gone to bed,but now i cook and we eat after Andrew has gone to bed,that way i know what's in the food.  =
