I can’t believe the kiddos are back in school already. Is summer seriously over? I feel like it didn’t happen at all. We have four kids: a son in fourth grade, a daughter in third. Little E is almost 5 but missed the cutoff for kindergarten this year. Baby will be two next week, and he’s a handful and a half.

If you’re like me, a busy working mom with too much to do to sit down and stop everything to read a book, you should definitely check out Amazon’s Audible program. That’s how I found time to read It Starts With Food, by having it read to me. I love, love Audible. I just recently purchased Food Freedom Forever with one of my monthly credits, and it’s another winner so far. I listen to it in the car to and from work and also while I’m cooking and doing chores.
