Probably Swanson fried chicken dinner

Does eating the little brownie out of hubby fried chicken dinner last week count
I wasn't really hungry and didn't feel like cooking so I keep these on hand for such nights lol there is always room for the brownie
ok off to spend some one on one time with the elliptical
If I hurry I may be the first to answer today I guess some would say my love for City Data is odd. I eat TV Dinners, but not as much as when I was single. The last time was probably last week. I like Stoffers.
yay ILNC you are first
remember my post doesn't count because I know when the thread will be started
I forgot to list C-D but your right some folks that haven'y been on C-D don't understand
lol my sister thinks it is odd when I mention the friends I have met here
She shakes her head and says "you met on the computer " !!!
curly that would be really cool especially when you are trying to park it !!!
Is there something you love to do that folks might say "ok lol that's just odd " ? Just sitting at the mall and studying people with their face expression, the way they walk, dress, interact with whomever they maybe with... it is so interesting to me, but I'm sure that is odd to others.
What is your favorite TV Dinner ?
Marie Calendars chicken and wild rice! Yum
When was the last time you had a TV dinner ?
I believe it has been a couple months... only eat them when hb isn't around...
August 10, 1948 Allen Funt's "Candid Camera" TV debut on ABC:

I changed my answer because I read the question wrong... sorry karla
I'm pretty sure that there's a lot of stuff that I do that's odd, but for the life of me I can't think of anything that stands out because to me it's not odd! Hope that makes sense!
I don't think I've ever had a T.V. dinner. I did try microwave frozen sprouts in a cheese sauce ... it was the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted! Bleh.

Aside from my CD addiction? Yes, I love budgeting. Now before you turn off your computers or call the guys in the white coats for me, I shall explain.
I see budgeting as a big game and the better I do at budgeting, staying on the budget, and saving money, the bigger the win. And since I'm saving for my retirement dream home in Delaware, it's an important game as well. I've been loving this odd hobby since I was in my 30's and decided that I would retire at age 50. (I did it at age 51 ... so it works!) People think that it's odd that I don't work anymore - and if you knew me in the real world, you'd see that I am nowhere near wealthy. But we live a very happy, frugal life - on budget - and we love it.

I have not had a TV Dinner in years. But the Swanson Hungry Man dinners were really pretty good. And for Magnum Mike - the foil tray makes a great hat! OK, now you can call the guys in the white coats!
I with tet tea, I can't think of anything but probably have plenty of odd things.
I don't remember ever having a true TV dinner, although we do have dinner in front of the tv quite a bit, so I guess that techincally counts.
