Going
out to eat is a real luxury when living on a student budget. It mostly happens
when we receive gift cards for birthdays or Christmas. I’ve had fun making
special dinners for my wife that include a lot more food at a much lower cost
than what we'd pay in a restaurant. I try to replicate the fine dining experience by emailing her
a formal invitation and menu several days ahead of time with several choices for appetizers, entrees
(a degree or two fancier than our normal dishes), desserts, and drinks. She’ll
respond with her choices, I’ll buy the ingredients, cook the dinner, and we
enjoy a great three-course meal at much less cost than in a restaurant.
