A Pause for Reflection: MealPal
There probably isn’t a soul who cares or has kept up with my past 10 posts, but I’m not sure I really care, because I really wrote them for myself, anyway. On November 16, I signed up for MealPal, a service in New York City (and a few other large metropolis areas) that offers discounted lunch…
