If you were in a salad rut, maybe this post will help. Salads can get such a bad rap, but these were 100% delicious. Which is why I can’t bring myself to order salads at a restaurant! Because compared to these, of course they are boring!
Well. Well well well. What to say. These few days have been…interesting…let’s just focus on the things that went right.
