Here goes friends! I have been dying to do this since I started all of the couponing and reading other blogs and posts!!
A little about me...I am Lucinda Mckinley and I have 2 precious children, 12 and 14! Life has been quite an adventure for the three of us in the past 2 years. We have survived a two year divorce, custody battle, going back to the real world as I was a stay at home mom for 17 plus years! What does one do now? The only answer that I have found is SIMPLY SURVIVE! I still muddle through and keep putting one foot in front of the other!
I have a BS degree in Marketing and Management. I am one of those creative people. And, I am a good cook!! I am one of those people who cooks, crochets, smocks, sews, needlepoints, knits, cans in the summer, bakes, am party mom, am field trip mom... So, what to do now? Use what I know! Since I also coupon, I thought that I would start a blog incorporating all of the things that I love!
This blog will focus on the Simple goodness of life! There is nothing more satisfying to me than making a wonderful dinner that my children love and having that special time hanging out in the kitchen talking about their lives and ours! I want to share Simple happiness with all of you!
Over the years, I have given many, many people simple meal suggestions, recipes, and ideas! I will share them here. Also, I will include lists of groceries needed along with coupons and deals so that we can shop together!
The blog will also follow my new adventure in the crafting of jewelry. I have started Simply Adorned jewelry and accessories. I primarily sell at the local flea market...Shoals Flea Market at the Muscle Shoals Fairgrounds on the third weekend of each month! I have also set up a facebook page for Simply Adorned. Please stop by my page and tour the pics which will be constantly updated. I do take orders! I try to keep all pieces at $5. Times are tough for all and we should be able to look good and be well adorned at a reasonable price!!!
Thank you for all your support!
Lucinda:))
