I'm smart with my money, I invest conservatively. I don't mind paying top-dollar, but I don't want to get ripped off.
Grilling takes the formality out of entertaining. Everyone wants to get involved.
I distanced myself, relatively, from my parents for a year or so in my late twenties. It was necessary for me to feel my autonomy. Other than that brief gap, we have always been a very close family.
