Good morning! Well, my intention was to share another Salad as a Meal recipe with you today but I’m afraid I’m just not happy with the blogworthiness of the pics. I have a bit of an unhealthy obsession with the beauty of Dining and Dishing’s photos. I go through my posts every so often and [...]

So after a few jam-packed weeks of fun, I’ve decided to ground myself this week instead of spending my evenings frolicking around DC.
