I am married to the love of my life. We have been married for over 12 years. I am a stay-at-home mom to 2 wonderful children. I am a marketing executive for an amazing wellness company with a 23+ year track record for excellence, and no debt to it's name. I also babysit my niece and a friend's girls. My hubby and I have started using a 2 week meal plan. It helps tremendously with adding variety to our meals, the grocery bill, and saving me time. I love that recipezaar.com is available for when I need to try something new, which I try to do at least once a month.
