Boof’s struggles are real.

I’ve mentioned before that Boof hates it when we leave the house without her now.  Like bad.  She seems to think that we totally uprooted our lives and moved here, just so we could abandon her in this strange house.  Poor girl.  When we leave,

A few months ago, I stocked up on some of the products in Aldi’s gluten-free line of products called liveGfree.  It’s nice to have less expensive gluten-free options – especially for those who struggle to afford specialty gluten-free items.  While I lean towards homemade or
