I have really good intentions to cook most meals at home. First of all, I know for a fact that it is healthier. And second of all, in this crazy city where a casual night out to dinner can quickly cost a pretty penny, cooking at home is significantly cheaper. Bottom line: it saves money and … Read moreMy experience meal planning with PlateJoy
We’ve all seen this quote before. I think I find it so funny because, nearly 100% of the time, it’s absolutely true.
