Wait, these things are the same!

Reasons I love living less than 50 metres from a grocery store include: if/when I am wiped and decide I don't want to make food to eat while I am running experiments the next day, it is super easy to walk over and pick up mixed fresh fruit, drinkable yogurt, and butter chicken with basmati rice

I have the same feeling about fast food places on the way home. Way too easy to veer off and have food right there, ready, in my hand!

There is a Booster Juice between my apartment and campus. There are mornings when it is difficult not to just say 'screw it' and pick up a delicious mango smoothie.

Mmmmm. Mango.

... Damn it. *WANTS*

YAH.

We don't live quite that close, but there are so many fast, delivery places! siiigh.

Man, I am trying so hard not to get on the takeout bandwagon, since once I'm there I'm afraid it will turn into a rocketwagon.

Unfortunately, I live on one of the main streets in my city, and there are many, many restaurants visible from my balcony and bedroom windows.

Better that it's a grocery store than (like me) a pub! "Too tired to make food... what are they frying tonight?" ;)

I'm still on one of the main roads in the city, and from my balcony, I can see two grocery stores, a bakery/German restaurant run by a nice Chinese couple, both a Pita Pit and an Extreme Pita, Tim Horton's, two chain restaurants, and pretty awesome Thai, Indian, and dim sum places. There is also a McDonald's, but that doesn't count as we are speaking of food. (It is bad enough that I am forced to smell it, let alone even contemplate eating it.)

In a slightly wider radius, there is a Dairy Queen ice cream shack, a Booster Juice, two sushi places, another Chinese place, Wendy's, a diner, and two pubs.

Really, it is remarkable that I ever cook anything at all.
