Just Getting Started

Well Hello!  I'm a creative person by nature.  In my spare time you can find me creating something, anything.  From food creations, to art, sewing, re-purposing an item, re-decorating, gardening, painting and super organization, I'm always on the go and forever being creative!

I love to cook and try new things.  Let's face it, eating the same things over and over is rather boring.  I love the challenge of a new recipe, especially something I've never made before.  I also believe in food prepping.  From canning to dehydrating to freezing, it's the best way to preserve food to enjoy all year long.  It's a long standing belief of mine that stocking up in advance is always a good idea.  You never know when a disaster might hit, a job is lost, or health issue could set in.  Maybe it's the Upstate New Yorker in me, but I always think it's a good idea to be prepared as much as possible and stock up on food and necessities.

Other reasons to "do it yourself" include public food safety.  In recent years, many many products have been recalled because of Ecoli and other bacteria.  Plus there are so many unnecessary ingredients in today's food that are unhealthy.  We've started sticking to a more natural diet, more "clean eating".  Though we aren't fanatics and indulge in sweets and things, our health has improved.   I believe everything in moderation.

Lastly, I also enjoy couponing and finding good deals.  I just love to save money, but I don't like to do without.  I love to find good deals on items we can use.  I use couponing to stock up on things we need, as well as to get gifts, stocking stuffers, etc.  Like everyone else, I get super busy at times and it's easier to just stay stocked on things than it is to run to the store at last minute.

In a nutshell, that's what I love to do.  Hope you enjoy this blog and the ideas I share with you!
