Sweet Temptation of Taking the Kids Out to Dinner

The numbers of women in the workforce has declined slightly in the last decade, and one result is that restaurants are seeing fewer families coming in for dinner, according to a story the The Wall Street Journal ran last week.

Personally, I've been taking the kids out for dinner a whole lot more recently, now that they are so much more manageable. It's just so nice to have someone else clean up the mess they make. But it really is silly -- they barely eat, so guess who ends up finishing off the leftovers? Not good.

What are your eating out habits?
