I am a spoiled wife. I got home last night and Dan wasn’t home, which was no surprise, but there was no dinner and no note. As I searched high and low for sign about what he made for me, I thought to myself that I am SO spoiled. I didn’t even consider making my own dinner.
What am I, a child? Like really? Unfortunately the answer is yes because I didn’t get to cooking. I’m glad I didn’t though since Dan had a delicious meal on tap. I love gnocchi, I love lemon zest and I love parmesan cheese. So yum!
