To be honest, it's only three days in meals. Josh traveled one night and the other nights that I planned for the week did not work out due to timing. But, here's what I have for you!!Okie Dokie Gnocchi with Spinach(served with Salad)1 pkg Gnocchi alla Gorgonzola (TJ's)1 cup frozen chopped spinach1/3 cup chopped onion(I added cubed pancetta to Josh's portion)Sautee the onions...
Are there any quotes or sources of inspiration & motivation that you look at each day? Would you care to share them with us?Here are two that I look at each morning and remember throughout the day:Be the change you want to see in the world.~ Ghandi ~ Optimism is essential to achievement and it is also the foundation of courage and true...
