This post may contain affiliate links. That means if you sign-up for services or make a purchase after clicking on a link below, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
Also, I am not a financial advisor. I'm a blogger who LOVES to share how I manage the finances for my household.

I am a foodie and I love to cook for my family, but I don’t have time to start a second blog just for food. Therefore on Mondays, I usually post a food/recipe post. Most of my recipes use simple ingredients that are probably already in your kitchen.  I use mostly whole foods, because I believe that makes for the most delicious meals.  Enjoy!
