I have to admit...when my husband married me I wasn't the most domestic of wives. I mean, who wanted to clean the house when we could go out hiking or traveling or see a movie? And forget cooking, that's what take out is for!
However, things changed drastically when our son was born. When the sweet little guy was placed in my arms, it confirmed what Eric and I both already knew but kind of denied...I was going to quit my job to be a full-time mommy.
Good-bye job as an executive director, good-bye second income, good-bye trips to wherever we wanted, good-bye take out food. HELLO MOMMY LIFE...and it turns out that I like being a domestic diva!
Now I have scheduled laundry days, I keep a day planner in my purse, we use cloth diapers, and I make a monthly food calendar that is hanging on my fridge to keep within a budget, to make my life easier and so my family can eat healthy! I really enjoy cooking and baking, and will gladly share my tasty recipes! Eric will eat ANYTHING, but I know when I hit the recipe jackpot when Eric asks for the dish to be on next months calendar!
I am also a couponer and have became quite frugal over the years! I'll post great coupon deals, recipes for things like laundry detergent and home made bath scrubs! All things posted have been tried and Misty approved :0)
Now that our son is an active toddler, I try to keep us both active with activities, crafts, and other fun things! As I find things that we love, I'll be sure to post them!!!
