Soon, Farnsworth. Very soon...
I got lazy and picked up dinner from Boston Market. Turkey, sweet potatoes, sugared apples, steamed mixed veggies, sliced red potatoes, and cornbread.
And cranberry sauce. Can't eat turkey without it.
Redball:
In Michigan, the nearest fast food is 15-20 miles away, the nearest Boston Market 3-4 times that distance. Here, there's one about 2-3 miles away, and it's been calling to me.
Bluesummers:
Michigan sounds like Hell, but frozen over.
In a 5-mile radius from my house, I have 3 Dunkin Donuts, 4 McDonalds, 3 Burger King, 3 Wendy's, 3 Taco Bell, 22 (yes, TWENTY-TWO) pizza places, 4 Subway (the sandwich shop), 2 Boston Market, and about a dozen thai noodle shops. But wait, there's more! Seven 24-hour diners, 2 KFC, one Popeye's, and one Long John Silvers.
No wonder I can't lose weight.
I'd really like a Whole Foods Market close by, but the nearest one is 20 miles south. Also they are FUCKING EXPENSIVE.
Papersatan:
One should note that when Redball says "Michigan" he means scenic rural Michigan. I have more than 2 dozen restaurants in walking distance (< .5 mile). In as big as a 5 mile radius? I am not sure how I would find an accurate number. If I search 'Pizza' on google maps and count the dots in an estimated 5 mile radius I have 29 locations. I am not going to try with restaurants in general.

In a university town, the town where Cottage Inn was founded? 657 in a five-mile radius, give or take a couple.
