We did it!! First things first.  I just want to thank Dane for doing this with me and for being an amazing boyfriend, partner and cook.  He was always open to anything I wanted to try and usually put his own spin on it.  I couldn’t have done this without him and I know he [Read On]

I’m feeling like I’m in a really good place this week, so I thought I’d do a little “note to self” for future reference.
