Today I made potato and radish latkes, Spaghetti squash, chicken sausage and pasta bake, and yogurt.

This includes my milk share for the month, 2 liters of olive oil, 2 pounds of honey, and 1/3 of a pound of cheddar cheese. This is a little expensive and maybe not so affordable. Hard cheeses in general are super pricey and so ...
