Here’s what we ate this month. I think this will be the last post for now in the “month of meals” series. Part of me wants to round out the year and do December, but part of me wants to move on to new things with the blog in 2016 (and that’s the part that’s winning out right now). I hope you’ve enjoyed it though!
{An explanation as to why I’m doing this can be found in January 2015.}
