Hubs is a vegetarian but I'm not. So I most often make everything vegetarian unless guests are coming. I do have a lower cost of living here in central Illinois, and I also shop at Aldi, which I know is not available everywhere. However, my husband eats an incredible amount of food. He's very strong and needs a lot of fuel. You do not want to know how much that man can eat at one sitting. I have never seen anything like it, honestly. It is like being married to a plague of locusts. I wish I had more than a token garden space.
