The good ol’ days. When everything was closed on Sunday and every family cooked meals from scratch everyday. Eating out was such a treat for my family as well. Maybe once a month like yours. My favorite was Kentucky Fried Chicken. Dad would come home with a big bucket of chicken with mashed potatoes and Cole slaw. A good meal was Bonanza (a steak house like Ponderosa.). We would dress up for it in slacks and a nice shirt. McDonald’s was usually a feature of a school field trip or a sport’s team end-of-the-season celebration outing. My Mom would hand me $3.00 which was more than enough.
