Nothing Fancy Here

When I'm not in my office, or running around with kids, or visiting family and friends... when I'm not volunteering in the community, working in the yard or on one of my side hustles... when I'm not a church or visiting clients, vendors, schools, or the nursing home where my mother-in-law lives... when I'm not cleaning house or playing with my dogs... I'm in the kitchen creating a new twist on a family favorite recipe or teaching my kids or friends new recipes.

Let's Share

I KNOW I'm not the only momma around here who is facing the mid-life shuffle. This blog is intended to share my experiences with you in the hopes you'll share with me, too. 

Together we can discover new home management tips & tricks, lean on each other when things feel like they're spinning out of control, share some food and recipes (because I believe meal time is healing time and together time), learn about some new places, resources, products or services around the Twin Cities area and just come together to "Pamper Each Other" - because we're STRONG Mommas!

Full Disclosure

I own a brand management business called Back2Basics and I'm an independent sales consultant for Pampered Chef under the name 'Your Pampered Foodie'.  And, if you ever want to talk shop about either of those things I'll be happy to share, but that's not what this site is all about.

Enjoying the company of family and friends

These are previews of moments before COVID-19, and times that I cherished dearly. It's hard to not feel sad about not being able to wrap my arms around those who mean so much to me at a time like this, but I can't dwell on what I can't do or don't have. I have to focus on what I do have and what I can do so I can keep going for myself, my children, my family, my friends and even my clients.

What are you doing to keep yourself going?

The Twin Cities Pampered Momma is a site for those 'not-so-pampered' mommas who want a place to gather ideas, share recipes, child rearing tips and tidbits, and personal or business wins, tackle challenges only a momma would understand, and SO much more. I want this to be YOUR go-to Twin Cities resource.
