What I really mean!!

  • $ - Taco/Hotdog $tand/Truck, Dive bar or Donut shop. Probably have enough cash in your wallet.
  • $$ - If you had to eat out every meal, this would be a good option but don’t forget the morning workout.
  • $$$ - A night out and away from the kids while paying a $itter.
  • $$$$ - New client/customer but your not ready to stick your nose in his a$$. Split a plate with your significant other.
  • $$$$$ - Only when your boss or someone else pays or you really, really, really me$$ed up!!
  • :( - I would rather eat a big steaming pile of _______ (fill in the blank)!!

The Food Court...Really???

I never thought I would have to eat at the Food Court in the mall again. Sure when I was a teenager this was cool right. Hangin' out with your friends at the mall and grabbing a slice from Sbarro’s.
Now day’s things have changed for the worst from what I can tell. The healthiest thing in the food court in the Boise mall is Blimpie? Loaded with all fast food franchises it’s no wonder more than half the population of the US is overweight. It’s enough to make you sick when you see kids that are 8 years old, obviously overweight, and the parents are feeding them McDonalds!! It’s sad because the kids don’t know the difference.
Yes, the wife and I feed the kids and ourselves at the Food Court and this day we are almost as bad as the rest of the parents there. I chose Panda Express, stayed away from the fried stuff and somewhat enjoyed it. Wife and kids decided on A&W and had a couple of bites each before it ended up in the garbage.
If a pig suddenly flew out of my ass or I was forced by gun point to eat there again I would probably end up at the Blimpie, Taco Time or Panda Express.
As you readers head out for the shopping extravaganza that is about to take place, you might want to think about Old Chicago or Cheesecake Factory as alternative options to the Food Court. If the court is your bag……….pull up a food stained chair and watch out for……………. what ever that green stuff is on the floor.
