Fun fact: I had this all mainly drafted and already to go… and forgot to finish it on Sunday when I had a costume fitting, yoga, and two blocks of rehearsal. Y’all know I never claimed to be a proper blogger. 🍴: Mon- the world’s fastest caldo verde soup inspired by this month’s Food &

🍴: Mon – because I anticipated having a rehearsal conflict on Saturday for intermediate ballet, I popped into tonight’s beginner 2 class, so Hampton took care of dinner and did a lentil/merguez/feta shenanigans much like we did a few weeks ago and I was so ready to eat after an hour of strength training before

🍴: Mon – rehearsal downtown meant Thai Harmony, our fave sushi in town Tues – dinner with our dogsitter and their partner, who conveniently live a few blocks away and are dear friends — Smoke City Meats ribeyes with a radish corn salad (because we accidentally double bought radishes) Ă la Feasting at Home plus
