Various events have lead to me eating out/planning to eat out for 4 out of 5 workdays this week. So tomorrow will have the only frozen meal food review from me. If it makes you feel any better, greasy pizza and Moe’s spicy salsa/sauce are wreaking havoc on my poor little probiotic belly.
In the meantime, [...]

We’re going to visit some random relatives for Thanksgiving, so I don’t really have much cooking to plan. But I’m rallying ideas for a side dish to bring. I’m thinking dessert?
