Eating

On Friday — inspired by the “30 Non-Boring Things to Do With a Crush or Partner” list I linked to above — my girlfriend got a ton of Saraghina baked goods delivered as a surprise/treat for me. And I got a ton of ground beef delivered as a surprise/treat for her, so we were able to make taco soup. It fucking rocked.

Have a good Sunday night! 🥖
