    Quote: I agree, that is a great tip!!!! Thanks! PS. My husband eats out during the week constantly because of work so his habit is hard to break during the weekend. If that is his only fault, oh well...Maybe your hubby is after the relazing atmosphere more than after the food? Mine likes to...

    Quote: I guess it all depends on things. With us, we have 2 houses since hubby travels a lot and uses Chicago as his hub/ office so he has a house there that he pays for.
