The Next Food Blog Star

I've been working on this, my first Project Food Blog challenge, for quite awhile now. I was a bit stumped. The challenge is to be yourself, put it out there. Who you are? Why you are The Next Food Blog Star? I gotta tell ya, I wasn't sure, I'm so many things!


Wife & Mom

   

Business owner & Blogger

 

Healthy plant-based Foodie

Amateur Gardener

Wellness Warrior

...and so much more-I can't be labeled!

I'm pretty new at blogging, but like I said in my profile, I think I have a pretty relate-able life. Its not easy pleasing 3 picky kids and a (picky) husband, but I try. Its my job to keep them healthy & happy. I strive to keep a healthy balance.  Its one thing to make healthy choices for yourself and carry them out, but making your husband and kids actually want to do the same is kind of tough. But as a foodie friend of mine said "Deliciousness is a very effective weapon." I wholeheartedly agree!


Want an example? Brian. He was my first adversary. When we met, he 'wouldn't eat broccoli if it was deep fried in chocolate sauce'. Now, what's his favorite meal? Broccoli & spaghetti. It doesn't just have broccoli in it-its the star of the show. I call that a win! Another example? All three of my kids LOVE poached salmon with dill sauce & my salmon salad. Win!

 

If you don't already know, I like to mix it up on my blog, not only meals I make for my family, but tales of my outings & fun times, how I save money, health-related articles and more. I hope I can show that a balanced, fun & healthy life is really quite do-able. Even if my readers don't have kids, I offer up ideas & tips that everyone can use. I'm not a chef, I'm not a writer and I'm quite obviously not a photographer. But I think I bring an interesting perspective to the blog world.

      

So there you have it. Not only do I think I can be the Next Food Blog Star, I think I just might rock it!

Voting opens this Monday, September 20th. I will post a reminder with the link to vote that day.
This first challenge goes from nearly 1,900 bloggers to 400! 

I would really appreciate your vote to get me to the next round!
