 NB>>> dessert. Only offerings there were frozen custard, with or
 NB>>> without toppings, or in a few choices of sundaes...  :)
 RH>> That works. you mentioned they had chocolate. I might skip toppings
 RH>> tho.
 NB>> What they listed as toppings were crushed almonds, Spanish peanuts,
 NB>> chocolate sprinkles and rainbow sprinkles...

 RH> OK, if any topping, the chocolate sprinkles.
 
If I had the custard, I might do the almonds...  :)
 
 NB>>> You'd probably both have sufficient to eat, too...  :)
 RH>> Maybe ended up taking some home, even with splitting them?
 NB>> Maybe, maybe not... depends on how hungry y'all might be at the time,
 NB>> I'd guess... not very, you'd bring some home, probably... regular,
 NB>> probably not....

 RH> More likely the zucchini fries than the regular ones.
 
I was meaning regular hungry... figured you'd likely be getting the
zucchini fries...  :)
 
 RH>> We've both cut back considerably on the amount of fries we eat; when
 RH>> fast food places started letting us sub a side salad for fries on a
 RH>> combo, the fries were history. Every now and then we'll split an
 RH>> order but even then, I make sure Steve gets the larger amount. I'll
 RH>> take what I want, then let him dump ketchup all over the rest. (G)
 NB> We don't eat a lot of fries, either... and when one of us does get
 NB> them, it's usually eaten with mustard instead of ketchup... something
 NB> that we got into doing way back when...  :) 

 RH> Steve likes them with ketchup; I like them plain but well salted.

I like to dip them in something... sometimes mustard, if with a clam
platter probably some with the tartar sauce...  ;)
 
 NB>> My neighbor Gwen used to like fries (in small quantities), so when we
 NB>> went to Wendy's, we'd usually get a Jr bacon cheeseburger each (hers,
 NB>> hold the cheese, mine, hold the lettuce), a small Frosty each, and
 NB>> share a small fries... Fed two for less than $5, after the senior
 NB>> discount...  ;)  That was about enough fries to hold me until the
 NB>> next time we went there...  ;)

 RH> Sounds about right. Senior meal about the same portion as a kid's one,
 RH> should be filling enough.
 
Basically an a la carte version of the kid's meal, sans the toy... The
prices have gone up a little since then... but it's still a cheap quick
fill... or at least hold one...   ;)

 RH>> Sounds good. We don't generally go to Boston Market--not too many of
 RH>> them in this area or on the route we generally travel. We did try them
 RH>> in NJ once, and they weren't bad, but just don't usually go there.
 NB>> Not many around here, either, but there is one in Henrietta that I
 NB>> regularly go by...  It's not a regular stop, though... decent place,
 NB>> decent food, if that's the sort of food one is after that day...  It's
 NB>> another place that I'd take Gwen, when I was trying to encourage her
 NB>> to eat more... she liked their mashed potatoes and gravy and their
 NB>> meatloaf... and it was good to get her out of the house, too... :)

 RH> Getting out of the house from time to time is good. It was a pretty
 RH> enoough day today that we walked around the neighborhood a bit, just
 RH> to get out and get some exercise.

Have you walked around your neighborhood much since you moved in...? 
It's a good way to feel a part of it...  :)  And to explore... :)
