95% of the time we elect to eat at home mostly because it taste better and we enjoy having our meal here, on the lanai or watching TV and enjoying each other’s company. The cost of food has gone up, but I continue to buy the sales and build my menus accordingly. I also try many new recipes I find on line and some have become keepers. We do enjoy going out on occasion with our friends, etc, but we also invite our friends here for an afternoon/evening, etc. Sometime we change things up and opt a brunch on the lanai and cook outside in the outdoor kitchen. We have a busy life between pickleball and golf…but cooking is fun and we enjoy our home and the great tasting food. I make desserts often and share with the neighbors. On a weekly basis, I would say maybe once a week or once every couple weeks we eat out.
