I've been meaning to post here for a few weeks, I was trolling the forums at first, but it's really just been a very eventful life lately. I am a Food Blogger, but also a mom and I blog about mom types of foods. Home made from scratch classic foods mostly, though I'll probably branch out more as time goes on. I'm starting with what I know! My website is http://www.momsfoodblog.com I do have more than one site but that's the main project right now and my focus. I have been featured on more than one recipe website and my site is growing faster than I ever dreamed.
I am also a mother of 4, the 4th due to be born any day now! Which is part of the busy-ness. Also last week we were told my husband's position at work (where he's been for almost 6 years) is being eliminated and he'll be out of a job at the end of October. He's our families only source of income currently, and has a pretty specialized position (he's a Tier 3 engineer in the web hosting field) so we're both working hard to find him a new job. I have been planning to eventually monetize the blog but though I have been approached by one company about potentially doing so, I'd like to hold off until the little guy is home and settled in before cracking open that egg!
My father and 2 Uncles and Grandfather are all entrepreneurs but not in anything remotely computer related so this is purely my project. We are motivated people! I've been talking to my husband about Freelancing and starting a side business and we're making steps in that direction too. I have read some of MJ's book I am currently reading it and passing on as much information to my husband as I can (he's not really a reader) and learning so much.
