That is funny.

I love visiting my Mother in Law's house.  My favorite meal is the left over meal.  It is just plain fun and the only meal she serves in a relaxed manner.... the rest of the meals she frets over.  I have no idea why.  Everything is always delicious... it must be because there are three vegetarians in the family.  She doesn't fret over chicken!

"Leftovers make you feel good twice. First, when you put it away, you feel thrifty and intelligent: ‘I’m saving food!’ Then a month later when blue hair is growing out of the ham, and you throw it away, you feel really intelligent: ‘I’m saving my life!’"

That line always makes me laugh.
Personally, I have been eating leftovers for a couple of days.  Leftover pizza from Saturday and leftover clams/linguine from Saturday.  Just finished the leftover pasta salad from Sunday.  Today is Wednesday.
LEFTOVERS are OK, but not my first choice for a meal. 

Your Mum must be a very special person.

Anybody that doesn't like leftovers never ate a Thanksgiving Dinner..............

TO me .Leftovers somehow taste better ! "STEW. "WOW" That was "Brought down from my "Grandmother`s "Day.Generation to Generation.

Leftovers ? Never any leftovers left in my fridge, if the dogs don't get it, someone else will.
