About me

Hello, My name is Gina and I am a mom of 3 great children who keep me super busy along with working for Weight Watchers and doing hair from my home. So I guess that I am a part time stay at home mom, but still a full time mom. I love to cook when I have time and all the ingredients needed on hand. That is why dinner can sometimes be a hard time for me. I get home from soccer, football, dance, and on and on, and not knowing what to fix for dinner. The kids are hungry and it is 6:00. That is why I am doing this. I am hoping that it will get me more organized and I hope it will help you ease the pain of thinking what to fix for dinner when it is late and you have been on the run all day.
