SPANISH RICE AND ROASTED VEGETABLE SALAD

How are y’all doing? Are any of you still having to go to work? Or are you social distancing at home?

The LOML can work from home and all the kids are home from school so we’re having lots of down time with family. You can read about some of the fun things we’ve been up to here.

One of the things we’re enjoying is mealtime.

For dinner, Son #4 with the assistance of his sous chef Daughter #2 made his specialty.
