I'm a cheap date!

[simple girl]

So DH is on business a lot lately, and we decided it would be worth it for me to drive 2 hours to join him where he is working. We went out for "dinner" tonight (ok, I'll admit it, on the company dime). We had appetizers (1/2 price at happy hour) and drinks (well-drinks were a dollar off), to keep it reasonable. Since I have been dieting (see Wednesday weigh-in posts), the appetizers were a treat and plenty of food! AND, since I now weigh about 10# less, the drinks went straight to my head! Thus, the comment from DH that I am a cheap date...LOL

We are now enjoying sitting by the pool at the hotel having a few more cocktails. Just a little note to say, we are having fun despite not being FIRED yet! It is fun practicing for "the day"!

Just back from a night out at the country club. I had some unused food allowance so I blew it out. Had a nice fillet, baked potato, and salad. A few brews to wash it all down. Almost felt like it was free as it was a use it or lose it situation.

Kind of feel like a solo cheap date.

Frank just took me out to dinner at a more expensive restaurant than usual. It was great, the atmosphere was wonderful, and I ordered the chicken piccata, and with the salad and French bread it was more than I could eat. Gosh, it was good, though. So anyway, I came home with a box full of great food. Guess I wasn't a cheap date this time.

There, NML, back on topic?

We have gotten into the habit of going out for appetizers and drinks on Fridays . It's fun and not too much food . Plus we always meet someone fun to talk to . It's TGIF except for me every day is Friday .

Next think you'll be saying is that you need a nap.

 

[cute fuzzy bunny]

Careful, W2R! You are slipping! You must work hard to maintain your frugal reputation, inheritance notwithstanding!

I've found the cheapest lunch snack in town. I just go over to Sam's Club and taste all their free samples of everything from hot pizza to pretzels. Some of it isn't too bad either, and the price is always just right...free!

It's even cheaper if you don't belong . Just walk in and start eating !
