Who am I? Some days I don't even know...
I'm a 35 year old working mom of a spirited 17 month old boy. I'm a wife. I'm our personal chef some nights. I'm our financial planner some days. I'm our maid rarely. And I'm crazy often. Most days I'm just trying to do the best I can to get by and live the best life possible!
Having a child definitely changed me, for the better. Being responsible for myself was cake. Raising a somewhat normal, well-adjusted child...well, that's a little more challenging! I started looking at the world with a more critical eye after having a child. What are we eating? What are we drinking? What are we DOING?
All these questions rolling around in my head turned me into, what I lovingly like to call a "Hippie in High Heels." We try to eat local produce, and at the least, organic produce. We buy our meat from a local grass-fed farm. We drink soy and almond milk instead of cow's milk. If it has a label, you can bet I'm reading it to make sure it doesn't have anything I can't pronounce, especially high fructose corn syrup. On the flip side, I do shave, love expensive handbags, and the higher the heel the better. Oh, and I love a martini, although I have cut back. Some people are "a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll." Well, I'm a little bit Granola...with a twist of lime...and I couldn't be happier!
