When it comes to eating at home, I have a certain affinity for leftovers.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s something comforting about eating food that I ate only a few days ago. I know what it\u2019ll taste like, only a bit crunchier or soggier or blander. I get the satisfaction of clearing out room in our fridge. And, it\u2019s completely free.<\/p>\n
The amount of work I have to do to prepare leftovers for consumption is the simple push of a microwave button.<\/p>\n
And I know that I\u2019ll like leftovers, because it\u2019s what I originally ordered at a restaurant not too long ago. My tastes certainly haven\u2019t changed since then, and if I hadn\u2019t enjoyed my meal, I would have simply not brought the remaining food home.<\/p>\n
In summary, leftovers are winners in my book, even if they don\u2019t get eaten the first time around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
