Sometimes, a simple frozen plain cheese pizza, sprinkled with some leftover honeybaked ham, is all I need after a long day at work.

When buying bananas, I always get 2 smaller bunches: 1 yellow, and the other green. That way, I have ripe bananas all throughout the week.

You know you've been going to the same place for a long time when it's renovated for a second (maybe third?) time since we first started going.  Same place, same good food, same friendly (first name basis) staff, but all new decor, furniture, and service china.
