I received compensation for this post. All opinions are my own. In 2009, my husband decided to make a huge step and take over his step father’s business. Owning your own small business can be a daunting and scary adventure to undertake. It can also be incredibly rewarding….
I was given an electronic pressure cooker a couple of years back for Christmas. I like to say my life changed that day. It’s been so amazing to just throw everything in a pot, set it, walk away and come back in minutes to perfectly cooked food. I…
I have five kids. Sometimes I wonder why I’m not bald from pulling my hair out in frustration. I love them so stinkin’ much, but honestly they can drive me super nuts sometimes. I find that sometimes all my time, every moment is spent doing something for my…
