Matt loves spicy meals, I loathe them, and try to avoid spicy ingredients at all cost! It’s just not my favorite. The perk of planning out our meals each week is that I get to decide what we eat, so red pepper flakes and Tabasco…
The first 40% of camping is awesome, the other 60% we could do without. Britt and I have camped out twice in our nearly five years of marriage. We love everything about camping until 10:00pm. At that point we feel it’s the perfect time to pack up…
