If there was one thing I hated as a kid, it was beets. I couldn’t stand the look of them. Or the taste of them… although, I’m not sure I remember ever actually eating one. I just knew I would hate them.
And so, my whole life I’ve held to [...]
I remember what it was like when I was still working away from home. I remember all too clearly how desperate I was to quit my job and stay home with my children. It was my mission in life. So….there was a lot of discussion between my husband and I. There were a lot of [...]

When my father passed away, his business went with him. He wasn’t the most organized person and his business records were practically non-existent. There was really no way for us to carry on the business, or even sell it. It was such a shame. He worked so hard to build up a business only to [...]
