When my husband and I were in New York City, we happened upon The Halal Guys food truck, where I ordered the chicken and rice. Even my husband, who’s been a vegetarian for decades had to try a couple bites. I made a vegetarian version at home, which was demolished by everyone.

No shortage of shenanigans around here…

Still my go-to meal for “cook your own dinner night!” Pasta. Creamy garlic parmesan sauce, tomatoes, lots of basil and vegetarian chorizo and chicken.

My husband took the kids on an overnight trip to the coast. I binge watched crap TV, got my favorite pizza delivered, and enjoyed the quiet house! (I did also get in a trip to the gym, some good walks with Percy, and stuff done around the house.)
