What day is it????

Come on you know it’s Tuesday so that means Tacos! Well for me a taco bowl, but still with all the yummy fixings. I went super San Diego style and used Butcher Box cod for the protein so it was tasty, but healthy and light

Wow, who would have thought two months ago that our lives would change as drastically as they did? I, for one, did not. Even when COVID-19 initially came out, I brushed it off like it was no big deal. I figured it was the flu

Happy Friday and hooray for the weekend?!? Seriously, is anyone else totally confused about what day it is? At this point, aren’t the week and weekend running into one another? Minus the fact that I don’t have to work the weekends (not complaining here), they

Pigs are the blanket!

You all remember pigs in a blanket, right? We popped open those ready made dough tubes trying not to scare the crap out of ourselves (I always hated that tube pop!), wrapped it around a hot dog, and into the oven it went. I guess
