Everyone loves it. Friends were over this weekend and I got the nickname "Martha". Now that's a seal of approval! Wouldn't have happened if I hadn't started the "cook from recipes challenge". Plus were are saving so much money! Our family began this challenge a couple of months ago. Everyone loves it. Friends were over this weekend and I got the nickname “Martha”.

Mr. M was just used to his bachelor life of eating out 7-days a week, especially in the years we dated due to a messy roommate. So, eating out was the norm instead. And I'd like to try and break that habit now that we have a pretty kitchen to cook in! @Julie – your husband better be providing major favors for that labor of yours!

Eat out, or take out? My husband refuses to acknowledge that he is a slave driver by forcing me to cook dinner completely from scratch for him 7 nights a week AND pack his lunch every day -- he thinks this is "normal" and that every wife does this. I think he grew up watching too much Nick at Night. Not that I think cooking is bad -- it's far cheaper to cook than to eat out -- but the recognition that he is darn lucky and fortunate would be nice! :) What do most people do? Eat out, or take out?
