When was that ? Ok I'm not much younger, and yes, eating out in the 80's wasn't much different. On the occasion that we did go, it was to Sirloin Stockade, great prices, all you can eat, and Mom would cover my chest with me hair to try to make me look younger, cheaper food.

I don't get why everything has to revolve around food? Why do we meet up with our friends and eat? WHy do family reunions have to involve food? How about a big family hike? Or friends going to the skating rink? Walking through the park? Why does everything involve food?

Every time my mother and i go shopping, we have to leave early enough so she can get lunch out. I'd rather stay home, but, can't. I always go with the bacon cheese burger sans bun and a salad. Its easy, its tastey and its LC. She got all excited the other day because I was going to town, she suddenly wanted ot meet me for lunch. She was going to drive 30min out of her way to meet me for lunch and I didn't even want to eat!
