Whenever A travels for work, there is one go-to meal that is always on the menu while he is away. It's not healthy, it's not nutritious, and it's not wholesome. But, it is tasty and comforting!


The house feels empty and quiet when he is gone. Being that I work from home, my 'work' day ends when he walks through the front door. So if he doesn't come home, my day doesn't really ever end. Then I lay down in an empty bed and life just feels so incomplete.

My go-to meal when he travels could be anything, because really, I make all the decisions for what I want to eat. I could eat anything that he doesn't like, I could eat breakfast for all three meals, or I could even just eat dessert. There is no one here to judge me - besides Roxi. Regardless of all the options, I choose Kraft Mac & Cheese. You know, the blue box?! Yep, that's what I choose!

Judge me all you want.
