Although it was refreshing not to see an enormous slice of pie. Portion sizes are completely out of control. <br /><br />I consider myself to be frugal in so many other ways ($15 haircuts, library for almost everything, thrift store shopping, brown bagging lunch 95% of the time, etc.), my one "splurge" is trying out some restaurants for dinner (where I often get two portions out of a meal). But I know what you mean. I'm still uneasy with the $12 dessert at Candle 79!Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06488301404397970300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5057927270137968293.post-52539465490402176042009-06-19T18:33:50.757-04:002009-06-19T18:33:50.757-04:00$5.25 for that piece of pie?

I still resent that a slice of plain pizza is no longer 45 cents, like it used to be in 1978.Ted Teodorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14273585582573372315noreply@blogger.com
