What I Learned This Week: #241
Monday, May 23 – Sunday, May 29, 2022 The Week in Poison: I’ve been buying freshly ground peanut butter for years. I get it at the farmer’s market and it’s delicious.

Monday, May 9 – Sunday, May 15, 2022 The Week in Hair: This week’s hair fiasco is 100% my own doing.

Monday, March 7 – Sunday, March 20, 2022 The Week in Words: Covering two weeks in this post, and I’m still having a bit of trouble just putting week one into perspective.

Monday, February 21 – Sunday, February 27, 2021 The Week in Beef: I made a stir fry beef recipe that called for 12 oz. of sirloin. Since I’d planned to stay in all week (the theme of the week, it turns out) I decided to splurge for the expensive cut. Well, the butcher was havingContinue reading “What I Learned This Week: #231”
