When I was seventeen and set a life goal of publishing a book, I never could have predicted the world of ebooks, and Kindle. Never thought I would self-publish a book that could be digitally sent to a mini-computer that people held in the palms of their hands (that...
I am very excited to share that my new book, FoodThrifting: Feast Well. Spend Less. Save More. is now available for purchase in paperback and Kindle formats at Amazon.com. This book is literally years in the making. In fact. It’s a lifetime in the making, as...
