Lamb is one of my favorite meats to eat. I have a confession though… that was not always the case. Up until about fifteen years ago, I hated lamb; or rather, I thought I hated lamb. First, I had never even tasted lamb. And second, I had heard a lot of people complain that it [...]
A couple of weeks ago, I shared a recipe that wouldn’t ruin your plans for the perfect bikini body and this week I’m continuing with that theme.
