DINNER: Vegetable and chicken pie
I spend a lot of my life explaining to people that I really don't like most pies, I mean I just don't understand them! Why would you want to eat meat that's all mushed up in pastry? No thank you.

MEAL: Feel good chicken soup
I've been suffering from tonsillitis over the last couple of days so I figured that it was time to break out the big guns... Chicken soup.

DINNER: carb craving pasta
Sometimes I get a carb craving that can only be satisfied with pasta but it's no secret that gluten free pasta isn't great.
