Learn how to eat real food and live a healthier life ... without going broke!

My husband and I started our marriage off in a great deal of debt. God saw us through that trial and has challenged us to share what we’ve learned about finance, food and natural living with others who struggle in this area. Why listen to me? I don't have letters after my name. I'm not a doctor, I make mistakes and I burn dinner too. But I've been in the trenches and I know what it's like to need help and not even know where to even begin. I figured my way out and learned lessons along the way. This blog IS the lessons, and it's my goal for you to not be in those trenches alone without a way to get out.
