just our day to day life
We had to work Christmas Eve and were heading to celebrate Christmas with Lo’s family in the morning. I was craving a mac and cheese type dish (gluten free, of course) but didn’t feel like dealing with a difficult recipe and making a roux and …
Lo and I don’t exchange “gifts” for Christmas, but I wanted to do something special for him that wouldn’t cost a ton of money. We have a fireplace now, so we were filling stockings for each other, but I thought it would be fun to …
