Everyone knows the best tomatoes are from Ohio.:icon_hungry:

Amen Gracie.

I can never understand why someone would move here voluntarily and complain all the time of how much better everything is up north. These same people when they go back north to visit rave about how much better things are down in Florida to their friends and relatives.
There are plus's and minus's no matter where you live, but don't try to convert where you live to a place you chose to move away from.

Well said Shimpy.


but it is true, everyone has their OWN idea of what is good to eat based on what they grew up with.

Bloom where you're planted is a good idea.

I'm with you Shimpy! Personally I'm thankful for Cracker Barrel. I get tired of most of the restaurants here but I can always go to Cracker Barrel to get my "cornbread fix"! I bring the extra muffins home and crumble it into a big ole glass of cold buttermilk for dinner! Our tastes are very individual!

Your simply not going to get the quality resturanat many of you have described. Many like my wife and I have belonged to goourmet clubs each taking a turn with developing a theme and then planning the meal. The host has the main dish and the remainder of the group fill in side dishes desserts etc.

The problem in The Villages is that many people no longer cook. My wife and I cook on a regular basis preferring our cooking to what is available in TV.

P.S. This focus on obesity is getting out of hand . I wish people would tend to their own deficits. It seems "so called obsese" people are becoming second class citizens. Leave them to their constitutional rights of life liberty and the pursuit of happines as they define it.
