Later I had apple slices with a tablespoon of…… Continue reading Breakfast

But I guess I am making progress, yesterday I felt horrible and today I feel a bit better 🙂 Last night I ‘sort of’ made dinner. I love Annie’s Deluxe Mac & Cheese (the aged cheddar…… Continue reading I made dinner last night…
