This epic series of blizzards has meant a lot of time cooped up indoors here in DC. I’ve also found it a great excuse for doing a pantry/freezer/fridge audit. Oh, sure, there have been stores open intermittently over the past several days, but I’m having more fun challenging myself to make do with what I [...]
