I think we need a little fluff :)
1. Have you/Will you decorate(d) for the fall?
2. Have you started any Holiday shopping yet?
3. What is one food (or drink) that you look forward to when the weather gets cooler?
Bonus (it was a discussion at work yesterday and wondered others opinions):
4. If you were able to have an inheritance for your children (or maybe you have already experienced this with your own family), and you were able to live comfortably and was not relying on that money to survive, would you rather spend the money while you are alive and watch your children enjoy the money now or would you rather have it given to them when you died?

Yes, I know exactly what you mean. We have one place that we really like, it is simple, low-key, the people there know us and know what we like. It is very relaxing if we just want a bite and it is late or whatever.
We also had a couple of years where we ate out constantly because of a business project we worked on. It got to the point that having a quiet meal at home became a treat and dd would beg to please eat at home.

I enjoy cooking, sometimes-lol!!, mostly for other people, but could be spoiled with having someone cook for me every.single.day.of.the.year forever-lol!!!
Yep. Our last cruise, the first night, at the first show, the first thing they said was no work, no cooking, no cleaning, no laundry, for the next 7 days!!! Everyone cheered-lol!!
I don't like eating all of my meals out when on vacation. My kids are not the most adventurous eaters so eating out can be tiresome trying to find things that they will eat that are not unhealthy. Not to mention that most kids' meals are the same old thing - chicken fingers, burgers, spaghetti and fries fries and fries! I usually order a vegetable from the side dishes menu, but they charge you a ridiculous amount of money, like $3, for a bowl with a couple of pieces of broccoli. Sometimes it makes sense to get adult meals and have them split it, but they all have their own desires so finding something that they will agree on can be a nightmare.
I like to cook so I don't have a problem with cooking on vacation. It can actually be a relief rather than trying to find a restaurant that doesn't have a huge line. Plus, when we are on vacation, we usually eat dinner rather late so my kids are often tired and spent. Much easier to let them relax in the living room playing a board game than sitting in a restaurant either waiting for a table or waiting for a meal to arrive. Depending on the length of our vacation, I prefer to only eat 1-2 meals out.
