Happy Wednesday! How is everyone? Another “all sides” Thanksgiving in the book! Thank you everyone who reached out about gluten free recipes or helpful blogs. I caught norovirus the weekend prior, so that was very fun for me. I did manage to feel well enough to eat come Thanksgiving and my only disappointment was that my partner didn’t make a double batch of mashed potatoes.
