Dinner

Thursday evenings are especially busy in our house, with two of the three kids having dance class after school.  Trying to get everyone fed and in bed on time can be a challenge.

Enter “Kids Eat Free” night at Earth Fare.

Seriously, this is one of the best deals that I’ve found.  Eating out can be expensive for a family of five, but Earth Fare offers free kids’ meals with each adult dinner purchase of just $5.  How amazing is that?!?  The food is terrific, kid friendly, and consists of great choices.  There is something for everyone on the menu. Tonight, the five of us ate for $22; it could have been even less, but we allowed the kids to choose root beer and lemonade (the kids’ meals include water, but not the other choices) and Mark enjoyed a huge salad from their awesome salad bar with his tasty sandwich (my meal, pizza and salad, was only $5!!).

So, a crazy busy night (this is picture week at dance) was made a little less stressful because we ate out and didn’t have to spend a ton of money (typically, a meal out, even at a quick serve place, is anywhere from $25-35!).  Everyone has full bellies and is now ready for bed…whether they like it or not!
