5 Things to Learn

I have learned some “new things” in the past few years that have been game changers and I wish I had known or understood them years ago. These aren’t life hacks- they won’t necessarily make something easier or faster- but they may save you money, hassle, and give you...

A Crunchy New Year

I’ve talked about my tendency to be a little on the, “semi-crunchy” side. You can read about that HERE. If that isn’t your thing- move along.  I find change very difficult. Especially when it comes to food and family goals- more specifically food that I want to...
