  1. (Possible repeat. Once in a while I hit "file" instead of "send".)

    Anyhow, when I come home from Shaw's I put the "amount saved" shown on the
    receipt in an envelope. Now, we all know I haven't really saved that money,
    but I like to think I have.

    So once in a while I dip into the envelope and dine out on Shaw's. Today the
    junior daughter and I went to Abe & Louie's for gin and tonic, rare burgers
    with skinny fried onion rings, and chocolate-dipped strawberries. And I
    still have $40 left in the envelope.

    The lunch, BTW, was the annual treat for our husband/father. He died eight
    years ago but we still "take him out for a burger" on his birthday.

    That's such a nice way to remember DH & Father on his birthday.
    Gone but NEVER, EVER forgotten.
    Such a sweet story. Thank you.

    What an excellent idea, Felice. I really need to start doing that. Lunch sounds great
    too, and a great reason to have it out.

    Good supper, Fleece. And a really nice thing to do; I'll bet you and
    your DD had some good conversation about him over your G&T. Good on
    you, Girl.

    I used to do the same (calculate coupon savings) and donate the savings
    to the World Hunger Relief fund drive my (former) church used to
    participate in.

    This is a good way to keep his memory alive. My father is gone, but on
    his birthday and Father's Day, I cook some of his favorite meals.
