Hi friends! What are your plans for this weekend? Happy Easter by the way! Usually, we take Grandma to Whole Foods and have a nice meal sitting outside.

Yesterday I woke up at 5 am to use the bathroom and basically laid in bed till Mr. Hungry's alarm went off at 6:30 am. That almost never happens to me, I thought about getting up but I was too tired to get up (without coffee ha ha) but couldn't sleep. When I woke up […]
