Eating out is only half the battle. Ok--that makes no sense--oh well, when in Rome... But as good as the restaurants are here in ATL, eating out every night is like surrendering your liberté de gastronomie. Eating at home is work, of course, so you're also surrendering your libérer le temps de paresseux (that's freetranslation.com's translation for "freedom time of sloth." Take it or leave it. I'm not French.). And sure, buying all the ingredients for some recipes costs more than a fancy dinner for two, but you have leftovers, and memories. Money can't buy you memories. And you can enjoy the whole experience in your sweatpants. Talk about memories... sweatpantsy memories.
When you combine beautiful photography and tasty recipes like the ones at
HeartSpoon and
Smitten Kitchen, how could you not want to cook your own adventure? Just keep your sweatpants out of your photos.
Pick a recipe and fire away.
My faves:

These
cookies are fantastic. I've even screwed this recipe up and the weird looking result was
still tasty.
Smitten Kitchen
Making your own crackers is a BLAST. Make these
parmesean cream crackers and tell people you've made them AFTER they start munching away.
