The proper way of determining a fine check. It's essential that the diner remain at the table they are seated at for an elongated period of time, to ensure the check is properly aged.
one doesn't always get what one pays for...but one pays for what one gets ...and sometimes much more than it is worth....make the most of what comes your way...and pay if you must...but never do harm
Great stuff John, I would to hang on to the moment, try to take a photo, as everything fades anyhow and with any bit of luck, the photo would always remind us of a time well spent
Some people live their life in the future...always planning what they will do...I would rather live in the holy instant enjoying what I do have...but maybe that's from hangin' out with 5 and 6 year olds for the last upteen years!
I enjoy the moment when the check comes and I dig out a gift card from my discovercard bonus. I never take the cash when I get more by taking a gift card. I love my discovercard. Remember the slogan that had a while back? 'It pays to discover. The card that pays you back.'
I enjioy the warm spring sun. I enjoy seeing my dog sound asleep soaking up "the rays". I enjoy seeing birds come in for the spring weather. It is sad I can go and eat my favorite Filet Mignon because I worry about the cost and if I can afford it. Again right on and thanks!

As often as they can, Renee.

-I guess we have to pay in order to have good moments...sounds like fun...i doubt that...nothing is freeee.... lol...
Fun is free, Rima.
If we can't afford to pay, we can't afford to play. Enjoying each moment gives us the most bang for the buck.
She said the same exact words to me at a restaurant in El Paso on Feb. 02, 2008. I really wished I had listened.
I'm sure I learned "grok" from Master Heinlein.
And you bring back memories of El Paso.
