FRRRRRRRRRRRRlotdaysomefri! Or something like that. I finally made a reel! (I felt your collective groan.) Technically, I made two reels. One that is just horrible, and one slightly more tolerable.

Creamy Parmesan Chicken Meatballs with Egg Noodles

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrreh! TAYLORDLE? TAY LOR DLE. You’ve seen, right? You’ve heard, right? Tay has her own Wordle game! Five letter words, all related to Swift language. I discovered this yesterday and have only played once. Scratch that, I just pulled it up. I’m on clue two. Is it a SONG? I need a hint. Never mind […]
