We need some color this time of year, don't we? Looking at this bowl of food makes me feel happy, and my belly too! I hope it will do the same for you.
How's 2018 treating you? What have you been up to? We just finished watching the series Please Like Me; it's a short little series but a good one. It's available on Netflix. There isn't much on Netflix that appeals to us other than Jane the Virgin, so it was nice to find another gem. These aren't new shows, but if you haven't tried either one of them and you have Netflix or mad streaming skillz, check them out!
Now, onto the dish!
