I am a wife and a mother of two young boys. I love cooking and I love a challenge, so cooking on our families single income paycheck is my monthly game! We chose to have me be a stay at home mom, and I love that choice everyday! It also gives me a good amount of time to meal plan, cook, and Pintrest ;). If you haven't discovered Pintrest yet, first of all get out of the dinosaur era, and let it TRANSFORM YOUR COOKING!!!! So here's a little background... I got married at 20 and was NOT A COOK by any stretch of the word, I could bake like a madman, but cook...not so much. I could make the basics, Mac n cheese (from a box), salad (from a bag), and I could buy the heck out of fast food! But once we had our oldest son I made a deal with myself. I would be "that mom". The mom who all the kids wanted to eat dinner there, who always had awesome after school snacks, and "that wife" who packed her husband the best and most braggable lunches. Two years later, I'm finally getting the hang of it, and this blog is my written proof of my struggles, success and "chaos in the kitchen"!
Enjoy!
