However, there are consequences to this nonchalant attitude of mine. What if disaster strikes? What if, as I enjoy my chicken sandwich for lunch I realise that chicken is on the meal
There's been a spate of soup recipes appearing on my blog recently. I'll tell you for why: because there's nothing more comforting I would like to have for lunch during the week.
