I’m going old school on you. I had this meal for dinner almost every night when I was in law school.  It started one random night when I needed to go grocery shopping but I was too lazy to go.  (Sound familiar?)  So I grabbed whatever I had in the fridge and threw it into a stir fry.  It seems just like yesterday that my parents would open my fridge in shock and would wonder if I ate at all.  Trust me, I ate.

Have you ever used squash as a bowl? This is the first time that I served a meal in the squash “shell” and I’m obsessed.  That means that I have two less dishes to wash so that makes me happy.  It’s the little things  that get ya happy, right?  Like just earlier today I tried avocado toast for the first time.  Of course I had to document it on social media because if I didn’t then it might not have ever happened.  Why has it taken me so long to try that?  I’ve seen it forever and I’ve been totally missing …
