Are you a fast-food or a health-food person? I'm more of a health food person. I rarely eat fast-food, only on occasions.

I am more the sort of person who says, "I don't have money to be wasting on food, so everything I eat has to be meticulously chosen so as not to make me go broke."
My nutrition needs must be met so I don't get sick, my calorie needs must be met so I don't starve, and my diet must contain just enough desserts and such to keep me from feeling unsatisfied.
It's a balancing act. I miss the days of "whatever, whenever" but am not sure I should be complaining since what we're doing now is probably better anyway.

Healthy.
People at work hate me.

I'm generally not all that picky about food. I'll eat anything. Unfortunately because of my work schedule these last few years, that's been incorporating more and more fast food, and it's taking its toll.
I eat sandwiches. Pretty much cold cuts, cheese, lettuce on wheat bread.

I usually eat home-cooked food, but I am known to eat at a local place on occasion. I avoid chains like the plague though. French fries are not supposed to turn into cardboard after refrigeration, they are supposed to become even MORE delicious!
This was the one I always had trouble with. I can handle the they're, their, there issue no problem. I think I finally managed to drill it into my head that it's the opposite of what you would normally think. The possessive is the one that doesn't get the apostrophe.
Think of 'ensure' as relating to 'events' (both have E at the beginning). "I wanted to ensure a good time was had." "I ensured the food was safe to eat."
"Insure" is generally financial -think 'income' if that helps, or financial metaphor. "I took out some money to insure my car." "I kidnapped my friend's cat to insure he'd return my signed copy of Tommy Wiseau's masterpiece, The Room." In the second context, there is no money, but the cat is metaphorical insurance on a loan. Also, that's mean of you. Why did you kidnap an innocent cat? Man you're a jerk.

Yes. You insure your business to ensure its success.
So basically, this means that communities are no longer prohibited from making it illegal to keep/raise any kind of livestock if the area is not specifically zoned for that purpose. No more backyard chickens, bees, goats, or rabbits. It appears this will not remove protections for people who want to plant fruits or vegetables, just livestock. You're on notice, @stienman.
