The other night, Julia and I ordered a take out pizza from very vegan-friendly Dimo’s in Chicago, and while I enjoyed some cold for a satisfying, late night dinner later on, she never got to partake. We combined this lapse with our vegan-cheese-stocked fridge inventory upon returning to Portland, and easily decided on pizza for our … Continue reading »
