    If your not cooking, What is your favorite food place?

    It's sad that eating out can be cheaper at times than eating in. I think it depends on the food of course, at ihop 3, 6" pancakes can run you almost 7.00, yet I can make 6-8 for 2.00... which is to much for just me but the dogs don't mind one bite!
