Gluten Free in Indianapolis: Napolese Pizza

Monday was rainy and cold. After breakfast at Cafe Patachou I headed to my sessions at the conference I was attending. I was in sessions all day. It's so tiring. After my sessions, around 5, I actually convinced myself to head to the hotel gym to fit in a workout. I did intervals on the treadmill,… Continue reading Gluten Free in Indianapolis: Napolese Pizza
