Made with ground turkey, salsa, onions, green bell peppers, lettuce, cheddar cheese, sour cream, and taco seasoning served in corn taco shells.
So, if you have nothing else to do today, make it a taco night.
Take-Away Life Lesson: Sometimes all you want to make are simply some tacos and call it a day.
Sometimes I just love to stop and smell the roses—or any flower for that matter.
So, if you have nothing else to do today, put some beautiful fresh flowers into a vase and put them in a spot in your home within viewing range.
Take-Away Life Lesson: Flowers can add calm and beauty into your life while smelling divine and putting a smile on your face.

A Beautiful Creation
Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Hash browns, Biscuits & Gravy, Pancake, and Cinnamon Sugar Toast.
Now this is one café I could have done without going to altogether! I tried this café on the advice of a couple of ladies (whom I did not know) who said this was an absolutely great little diner to get some good eatin’.
I had never heard of it and didn’t even know where it was located—but I found my way. Boy, did I ever!
The café was pretty much empty except for the neighborhood regulars—who, surprisingly, can eat subpar food. I couldn’t even eat all mine—it was so NOT good. Only the cinnamon sugar toast made me smile a tad.
As you can see from the windowsill, there were two dead flies who seemed to have found themselves a permanent burial site as well. That’s always a plus. (I noticed this as I was eating my delectable breakfast, no less.)
Nobody that was there was happy to be there—or at least as you can tell from their faces they looked unhappy or grumpy.
So, if you have nothing else to do today, try a new little café in your part of town—even if only to give you the knowledge of how great or not it is. Maybe you can save a friend from a similar fate.
Take-Away Life Lesson: Not every little café/diner that someone else thinks is over-the-top fantastic is going to be that way to you.
Philly Rice Bowl made with steamed white rice, grilled chicken breast, black beans, salsa, sour cream, lettuce, cheese, and grilled vegetables with a side of Tuxedo Fries.
This is that same little local spot where I get my favorite Super Chief Philly Steak Sandwiches all the time. I finally broke down and tried something new on the menu.
After years of getting the same steak sandwich over and over……hmmm, let’s be bold and try a rice bowl. ‘Twas a lovely change of pace. Not a bad bowl at all.
So, if you have nothing else to do today, try a rice bowl at your local steak sandwich restaurant—or just put your own rice bowl together at home.
Take-Away Life Lesson: You might be pleasantly surprised if you finally break down and try something new on a menu.

Veggie Burger made with black beans, oat bran, beets, jalapeños, onions, sweet soy glaze, jack cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, mayonnaise, and mustard; served with French fries.
I’m not usually a veggie burger person because they all do nothing for me in the taste department. But THIS HERE burger was SO good!
I decided to try it out since every other food item on the Houston’s menu is fantabulous—so why shouldn’t their veggie burger be?
I was reluctant to try this, to say the least. But those Houston’s folks know what they’re doing with their food. I had a good ol’ time with this burger.
So, if you have nothing else to do today, try a veggie burger specifically from Houston’s. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Take-Away Life Lesson: Not all veggie burgers are blech.

Sautéed ‘Shroom Burger made with mushrooms and Swiss cheese with a side of French fries.
Now I’ve had some great burgers in my lifetime, but I have to say I wasn’t impressed at all with my burger here. It was about as bland as bland could get.
I had to douse this with loads of ketchup just to somewhat enjoy it as it was sliding across my taste buds and going down my tube. The fries were ‘meh’, too.
I’m not so sure about the ‘Gourmet Burger’ part of the sign. Maybe I just didn’t give this place a decent chance and should probably go back and try several of the other burgers and menu items before I do a review.
Maybe it is an awesome place to go, but I couldn’t tell you that yet from my personal experience.
So, if you have nothing else to do today, give Red Robin a chance and maybe order something else off the menu other than what I did.
Take-Away Life Lesson: It’s hard to give a place a second chance when the first thing you order off the menu doesn’t even come close to impressing you.

I have to admit, in some stores I have a favorite cashier. Richard is my favorite at the Whole Foods Market. He’s so nice, polite, and very accommodating to all the customers. He’s very good at his job and pleasant to everyone.
If only I had the patience of Richard. I have to say he just smiles away his day to customers that would drive me bonkers—and I’ve been behind those customers in line, let me tell you! His demeanor is utterly amazing.
Now if only Richard could be my cashier and check me out of any and every other store I shop at—what are the odds that’ll happen?
So, if you have nothing else to do today, and you’re in Whole Foods Market—look for Richard and zoom over into his line. Try different cashiers in your favorite stores until you find a cashier favorite.
Take-Away Life Lesson: With all that cashiers have to deal with in a day, if they can have patience—so can anyone. Ohm………
