I'm a single mom to four wonderful kids. They keep my hands full! My job as a nurse is very enjoyable, as I am definitely a "caretaker" type of person. I love being a mom and a nurse!
Circumstances beyond my control have made tightening my family's belt more than ever before. Even going through nursing school full-time with four kids wasn't this tight! Food prices, along with fuel prices are completely insane right now. We no longer go out to eat at our favorite restaurants anymore. I am ever grateful for finding RecipeZaar, as we have been finding our favorite dishes here. RecipeZaar has really helped us live within our new budget with all the delicious foods we have been trying. Thank you to all the recipe posters!
