“School’s out for the summer….” “School’s out….” okay, that’s all I know from that song. But it’s fitting, and ringing through my mind, because guess what? School is out. You guessed it – for the summer! I just finished my first school year with a new district (I’m a speech therapist by day) and am so excited!

I may be alone in this, but… eating things with my hands (unless those things are fries) seriously stresses me out. I’m talking sandwiches, tacos, wraps, etc. Anyone else?

Updating another old favorite with fresh new photos & a couple of recipe notes. It’s the same old meat sauce that we love and go back to again & again… it just looks prettier this time around!
