“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.” — Robert A. Heinlein

Cheap Food
Tonight we had sausage and pancakes for dinner. It cost about $4.50 and there are leftovers, would have been a lot less if we had cooked half the pack of sausage. I like to roll my sausage up in pancakes and dip the whole thing in syrup. I will probably have some of the leftovers for breakfast. Sometimes it is nice to have breakfast for dinner and it is cheap to boot. Dinner these days costs 5-7 dollars total if we eat meat and far less if we do not. Of course this could be done a lot cheaper but we do not have the need or desire to do that. For less than the price of a frozen pizza we had a great dinner tonight.

Cooking from scratch is a hell of a lot cheaper than eating out. Sometimes when we buy pizza and pay $30.00 for it, I think how much I could have gotten at the grocery store for the same money.
Hermit, That it is for sure. The pizza place next to us has a deal for a one topping large carryout for 7 bucks but still.
