The first time I ate out was at a White Castle in the sixties.  Does White Castle still exist?  I don’t know.  Eating out was not some thing our family ever did.  Now it is not that unusual to do so although it is still special when I do.  I really do not take dining at a restaurant for granted.  I usually avoid fast food restaurants.  I would rather dine at a finer restaurant.  I do occasionally for special events.  I don’t take it for granted.
