    Do you cook or eat out?

    Normally, I try to balance the two whenever I can, but lately, it seems I've been eating out more.

    I'm not a very good cook. The best meal I can make is spaghetti and meatballs. Oh, and I'm a culinary master of boiling packaged Maruchan Instant Lunches and Nong Shim Shin Ramyun (Ramen). Yeah. I'm that pathetic in cooking. My friends seems to enjoy it though whenever they visit my house and I just happen to be in the kitchen.

    I tend to eat out a lot more than I cook, which is good because with my cooking skills, I can **** up Bisquick. Most of the time I go to the major burger joints (which is SERIOUSLY adding to my waistline) and, if I can afford to do so, I like dining at the California Pizza Kitchen by myself or with friends. The downside to this is that I spend a lot of money every year.

    So, I eat out more than I cook. Basically....

    How about you? Do you cook more, eat out more, or do a little bit of both? Discuss, and eat well!

    It's about half and half with me, too, Misty. During my lunch breaks at work, I'll always eat out, because I don't have time in the morning to make a sandwich or anything, and I'm too tired and lazy to prepare something the night before. I do have some frozen dinners in the downstairs freezer, and now that I brought a box containing plastic forks in from the garage (I've been living in my new home for 2 months now, and I still had some food and plastic utensils in the garage, waiting to be moved in....yes, that's the epitome of laziness), I can actually take them to work with me and be able to eat them.

    Once I get home from work, I'll either skip dinner completely and have some chips or other snacks instead, or I'll make a sandwich or something. Once in a while I'll make breaded chicken patties or hot dogs or frozen pizzas or something, but that only happens once or twice a week or so. As I don't have a car, it's hard for me to go out and get something to eat once I'm home, although I did walk down to Jalisco Tacos tonight and get a cow tongue taco and two shredded beef tostadas, with some Horchata to wash it down.

    If I'm with one of my friends during the weekend, I'll either eat something from a fast food place, eat at Goody's (this "fast food" place with about 50-60 things on the menu-if you can't find something you want to eat there, you've got serious problems), or sometimes will eat at my friend's house when his mom cooks dinner.

    So there you have it!

        I love to cook and bake, but since I'm still living on campus, most of my money is wasted on a "meal plan" that I don't use, so I don't have much money to buy groceries on my own. Lately I've been eating more and more fast food, and it's really starting to give me that "icky" feeling. The healthiest eating on campus is probably the Chick-fil-A, so I usually end up eating there.
        In the beginning the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and is widely considered as a bad move.

            We had pizza and garlic fingers from two different places for the last two days. I think today I'm going to make home made hamburgers

              One day master chef to be right here baby.

              Since I work in a kitchen most of the day, most of my meals I make myself at work, with whatever I want, as long as Im not making huge steaks with prawns every day. I find I eat lots of sandwiches. I love'em.

                I eat out and eat in about 50/50. I can make anything as long as I have the directions.

                    Do you mind being covered in hot sauce?

                      I rarely ever eat out, and even then I'm very picky about where I go.

                      So I usually make everything at home with ingredients from the health food store in town.

                        Eat out.

                        I don't have the time, nor energy to make my own food.

                          Mostly eat out. Not that I CAN'T cook, just too lazy.

                            50/50. I make my bf cook for me. If it's not ready by the time I get home, I put on my wife beater T and I'm all like "where's mah dinner, *****???" Then the cat runs into the bedroom, cries, and blames herself.

                            Either that or we get Taco Bell or Boston Market.
