You're a cook. I'm a learning cook.
I had two excellent cedar plank salmon pieces in hickory and maple marinade. Side dish of asparagus. Both done in the oven. Side salad my wife made.
All for about $20 for two. Nice wine of my choice. My choice of music. All from Safeway.
You've asked what the future will look like? This I wouldn't trade to go to a restaurant for $100-120. Their choice of music. Those surrounding me enjoying, too (but I don't know them).
Now I'm not complaining about eating out at all. I love it.
But..some things will change in the future. I might need to be just as enticed to go out as going to a particular grocery store to shop.
Thanks to the folks who liked my Easter message on Friday.

That was one of the most powerful Easter messages I have heard. Thank you Kevin , for the inspiring and personal message. You have more faith than most! I believe as you do that organized religion has it’s place but true and deep faith lives within.

I have been with Albertsons for 45 years and I found your site about three years ago and enjoy reading the thoughts and articles that you print.

Keep up the wonderful work.
