About me

Hi! I'm Katrina. I'm married to an elementary school music teacher and am mom to three crazy kids. Formerly a high school teacher and missionary, I now stay home and give myself pedicures and eat bon-bons, while never avoiding sarcasm. Actually, I homeschool two of my three kids, substitute teach, and work seasonally at a farm. These days my blog is mostly a venue for information about my homeschool classes, but you can find all kinds of fun old posts about faith, finances, food, and family. I also have archives of The Poorganic Life food blog and You Go Girl! Bible studies. I love Jesus, my family, libraries, audiobooks, Harry Potter, hip-hop dance, gardening, Hamilton, and eating crusty bread. I am available for freelance editing and speaking engagements.

Where’s the one about . . .?
