POLL: How often do you dine out?
I don't mean buying lunch or dinner if you are at work. I mean you and your DH or friends or whomever. Ever since I started working I feel like the Mr, the Mini and I go out to eat a lot. I'm too lazy to cook nowadays I guess. LOL
Re: POLL: How often do you dine out?
Oh, and to answer my own question, I'd say on average about 3 times per week.
We tend to eat out at a restaurant maybe once per week (b/c DH would rather be at home than out, if given the choice). We usually get take-out or fast-food 2-3 times a week.
I would like to cook more, but it's such a PITA. Maybe when I eventually get a dishwasher, I'll do it more, but I hate having to wash all of the pots and pans and measuring cups, etc., that are generated from cooking.

I will grab fast food when I am out shopping just because it is easier to eat something quickly before the baby wakes up (she always fall asleep in the car on the way back from shopping).
We haven't eaten out since the day before C was born. We order takeout maybe 2x a month.
Maybe 2x's per month since A was born. It's really hard with an Infant to eat out and we are also trying to save money. Now that I'm not working I cook all the time.
Before I had A, when I was working FT, I only cooked about 2-3 times per week. I was always too tired and lazy to cook a meal after working all day.
not enough!!!
probably once a week, and usually take out, for all of us. or we'll stop by a wendy's on the weekend since Ava and dh like it. It's too late for us to eat out during the week by the time we get home and sit down somewhere. it's easier for me to plan ahead and make dinner at home.
we've done two date nights in recent memory - my birthday in JULY and a few weeks ago with friends. every 6 months or so is a sad record!
I'd be eating out more if DH was into it. Unfortunately, take-out tends to be our default because he is a homebody.

Id say a few times a month including take out or going out for lunch or dinner. We really dont have a lot of extra money after the bills are paid so we try to be good the best we can.
Hence why i dont make it to alot of the nestie get togethers...
so dont think i dont like you ladies, i do i loves ya!
my read shelf:
at least 2x a week usually, we try to only do one dinner and one lunch out and then maybe take out 1 night. Now with the baby that will probably change but my mom lives right near us so we could always leave her with my mom and go out. Even the first week Teaghan was home H took me out to eat just so I could get out for a little while.
prior to baby we ate out a lot, almost every weekend so Fri, Sat and Sunday.
1 a month if we are lucky!! LOL
However we might order food once a week.
very similar. and as I've said before B or I didn't even know I could cook until we got married sooooo... I definitely never cooked when we lived in the city I hated the tiny kitchen and when we first moved to the house I was commuting and was too tired to do it when I got home. Now that I don't work still not as much as I should. This week I actually made dinner 4x and that has NEVER happened tops is usually 2-3.
We usually eat out to dinner 2-3 times.. usually 2x at a restaurant and 1x take-out. We go to bfast at a diner most Weds before he goes to work and on weekends we go to the diner or get bagels...
Also I'm a bad culprit of saying I'm going to cook then getting lazy and not doing it so I tell B I have bad cramps and he'll be like don't worrrrry we'll go out or get take-out... so some months I get my period at least 3 weeks outta 4
charlotte im the exact same way!
