Since I started keto, I've been a little nervous when we go out to eat. It was hard enough to find something to eat before(picky eater here), but now it's even worse since I can't eat bread, pasta, or rice!

Random post alert. I decided I wanted to learn to crochet a while back, but didn't really decide to do it until I signed up for Ravelry. It might be my new favorite website.

I'm in the process of making an amigurumi Totoro right now and I have a ton of others on my "to do" list for later.
