Six Scoops and God Only Knows How Many Carbs but Zero Regrets

Since becoming a single parent for the second time 2 years ago, I've tried to really put a focus on family time because my kids felt like their family had shattered. Consistency is so important with kids because it helps them to feel safe and loved. One of the things that I wanted to do was have something like a taco Tuesday, but only two of us like tacos.
