Broccoli Avocado Salad with Bacon Bits
I know how lucky we are to be living in Europe. But I quickly forgot how spoiled I am when it comes to sports on TV in Europe. I rarely have to! Even though we have figured out how to watch our favorite US shows, live sporting events aren’t so easy. They are usually played in the afternoon […]
Swiss G’hacktes mit Hörnli {macaroni with meat sauce}
