Introduction

Hello! This is going to be my first post in my very first blog! I have had a few people ask me to start a blog with information about my cooking, gardening, and stay at home mommying. I have put a lot of time and effort into my new life and I thought it just might benefit someone else to have the information I am gathering!

I guess you could say I am turning into a “granola” mom…. I like to think of it as trying to do things more simply and with more thought. I am trying to provide my family good healthy meals, and gardening is an important part in that quest. I also am trying to use fewer chemicals in both cleaning and cooking - my great grandma did not have a ton of chemicals floating around her house and she lived to be over 100! We are going to try and live more like she did...

I am also a new stay at home mom (well it’s been a year now so kind of new) and am tackling that job like I do everything else: with thought and determination. Our little man has been doing Your Baby Can Read since he was three months old… I know, I know, it is a cheesy infomercial but he LOVES it and can read at 14 months to some extent. I will post more about this later.

I am going to wrap up my introduction with one more thing you should know about me. I’m not a good writer.. sounds funny for someone starting a blog to admit. Well I can’t spell (someday I will go into why but just know it’s not because I’m lazy) I will be trying my best to edit before I post and I hope that this will make me a better writer in the long run but please be patient with me as we take this journey together!
