I'd like to have something solid for dessert, at least a cookie..\nAre there any other fast food restauants that lack a decent dessert?

Taco Bell and KFC. I know it bugs me, too. But I'm on a diet so I don't need that stuff anyway!!!

Maybe set aside an afternoon to go ice skating, or some other wintertime activity, and then head to a diner for hot cocoa or apple cider.  When I was growing up, we rarely ate out, and never had fast food or take out, but a few days before Christmas we ordered pizza, and because we never had it, it was super special.  I am 48, and my parents are 80+, and my siblings range in age from 43 to 52, but we all still have "christmas pizza" every year, to continue the tradition, so your kids may be doing your new routine years from now!! Have fun.

Interesting question.  Drink lots of ensure, and other meal replacement drinks.  Eat at lots of fast food restraunts, order big macs or whoppers, and don't exercise.  Boy, did I ever just give you a recipe for a heart attack or stroke or what?  LOL, good luck and eat an extra burger for me.                 ;~)

Hi Mandy-Sue! I'm just learning how to do this 'Answers' thing, and since you helped me with my question, (I'm the skinny girl trying to gain weight!), I'll try to give you some V-day ideas... maybe a way to incorporate all the things that you listed as his likes, what about a 'Naughty-but-Nice' basket of goodies: Maybe a video game that he's had his eye on, maybe either a 'coupon' to cook his favorite meal, or reservations to a favorite restaurant (maybe he'll pay if you work it just right!), and/or some 'male' munchies: pretzles, nuts, jerky, chips, beer (if he drinks - a few cans or bottles stuffed in the basket), maybe a magazine of one of his hobbies - they have magazines on video games if you can believe that!, or a subscription to a magazine - those aren't too expensive, and it's a gift that keeps on giving all year! and last but not least...i'll try to keep this clean, but that 'N'-catagory has tons of options! I got my guy something we both enjoyed, and he loved it because it literally put the 'control' in his hand...there are places that sell panties with a small, ummmm, battery-operated device that is 'remote-controlled'! Yep, he had a little trigger that he'd turn on and off at his whim! We went to a bar where he proceeded to 'go order us a drink' and from some secret location, he watched my reaction in mid-sentence with people as he turned that thing on and off! It was a riot! I was hysterical, so was he from afar! We had the best times with that thing! However, they can be pricey ($30-$50)? But, in those same stores, there are countless options! I'm sure you can find something that will fit perfectly in that basket of goodies! Good luck! If you want, let me know what you decided! Take care, kcberry5

When attending a large gathering I always try to bring something easy to pick up and eat.  At the holidays my favorite things to bring are homemade fudge and huge trays of assorted nuts that have been shelled....just pick them up and eat them.  I bring lots of macadamia nuts and cashews, those seem to be the favorites.  The fudge  recipe I use is from the marshmallow Fluff company in Lynn, MA....visit their website and get the recipe...it's called NO-FAIL FUDGE and it is true!!!

OK, I got the drinks and the DVD. I want only a few slices of the supreme pizza, and did you order garlic bread like I asked? what, you didn't? Damn, its all ruined now!!! I can't believe you didn't order GARLIC BREAD!\n\nNo, no apologies accepted. I'm going home!!

Fast food--fast jokes.\n\nGo to a McDonald's (Burger King); order a Happy Meal, then go back and tell them i'm still unhappy, i want my money back.

I get a magazine from Kraft and they have some great ideas with easy ingredients (like dipped pretzels, Jello cookies, brownie cookies, etc.)  They have a website online that has the same recipes, which is http://www.kraftfoods.com/kf/FoodandFamily/.  Also, another idea if you want to do something different (which I did last year), is a movie basket with small plastic cups, movie candy, popcorn, and a dvd or something.  Just another idea for you.  Good luck!

That sounds good.  I know how to make good coffee and homemade hot chocolate to go with them.\n\nIf the brownies have some chopped nuts in them, I'd like some --otherwise the cookies sound great.

THE STAFF!!  I have worked in restaraunts since I was 15 and I must say that if your staff isnt GREAT CHIPPER UPBEAT And ready to deal with the JERKS that walk in then you restaraunt wont do well either!  You need to establish a 'regualr' customer base and really get the word out.  2/3 businesses dont make it past the first year due to going into the hole.  Make sure that you are prepared to losse money your first year in order to provide promotions and specials to the public to get them into the restaraunt.  Make sure that since this is your first atempt that you only hire experienced servers and cooks.  This will not be the place to train new employees!  Make sure to set a budget for each month and make sure that you stay within it!!  I helped open a restarant in St. Charles MO and they are now making a killing off the business so this is where I get my info from.  Make sure also that who you have doing to books and all is someone who you TRUST!!  Accounting is a huge part as well!!  Make sure that you like all of the food that you serve cause if you dont like it and you wont eat it chances are that the public wont either.  Any time that you try a new dish serve it as a specail once or twice a week for about a month to see what the responce is to it first.  Have your staff taste things as well they will be your most honest critics!!  Cause they wont want to serve something that they cant sell... you have to think that servers make money directly off of your products.\n\nOh and feel free to IM me at justone_girl on yahoo.  I would love to help you out any more if I can
