About Me


I am a wife and a mom. A mom of two young-adult kids. A mom of a teen and a mom of a little kid she’s 6! AND I am a full-time childcare provider of itty-bitty kids. Like so many of you I care for people. Managing the shaky balance of doing for others and caring for myself. Through my years I have viewed my ability to deal with myself, family and nutrition with varying degrees of confidence and doubt.

Some time  ago we witnessed a close friend lose his wife and the mother of their three young children to a hard fought battle with cancer. This painful reality filled me with an urgency  to attempt to protect myself and my own precious family. Protect them  from the onslaught of dangerous foods and products that we use and consume every day.

Some time ago I began  eating a low-fat, low calorie diet. I considered exercise but aside from the occasional walk I did not do it. I had no time. I had no energy.  I knew I could make myself thinner. I had before, but I was hungry, irritable,  and at times angry with what I thought I had to do to make myself healthy.

I refuse to call myself a yo-yo dieter. I’m a seeker, a learner and a believer. So I searched, and prayed, and searched MORE.

And I found a way of nourishing and balancing my body. A way that appeals to my love for creating delicious food. And EATING the delicious food! I’m still learning, seeking and believing. And I have become FULL and thankful and inspired (and thinner).

while it was an nagging hormonal imbalance that led me to eating “keto” not a hungry belly.  there is a magnitude of  nutrition advice and programs today at your fingertips. I prayed for guidance, simply that. God desires us to live a full life. He has created a good and healing earth for us. I believe He will and has lead me to good things when I am leadable. I know that I have never felt satisfied and joyful over my food, My Full Portion.

If it can be done a little at at time then I will do it.

The Lord is my portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed I have a beautiful inheritance.

Psalm 16: 5-6
