I used to be a great cook and never had much use for restaurant food. Too much flour, sugar, salt, and fat for me. But there is one near me called the Red Plum and I am really hooked on their tomato sauce. This sounds awful, but it has big chucks or nearly raw garlic and I cannot believe how good it is. I order a spinach and ricotta calzone with side of red sauce and it is big enough for three or four meals for me. I almost never cook now so appreciate something that tastes homemade.

Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
QJB-86% isn't awful since you struggled in the beginning. However I am like you in expecting an A on all assignments.
I am at home today for my usual day off work. Going to do a little housework and hoping to clean the car. The inside really needs a wipe down and vacuuming but it hasn't been so warm thus not motivated to be outside vacuuming and wiping down the inside. I am off tomorrow for DHs bday. Not sure what he wants to do but he wanted a carrot cake for his cake. I bought one did not make.
QOTD: Texas Roadhouse is my favorite locally since I can enjoy a steak, potato and salad. I generally share with DD. Their prices are excellent. When we were in Denver a week ago we went to a really great Thai restaurant. If it was local it would be my new favorite.
Accountability: on track.

I always order the Petit fillet there and sub the rice out for an extras side so I get 3 sides instead of 2. I get 3 chilis and I have lunch for 3 days. And it is cheaper than the 9-ounce fillet.
