Things Heather loves: blue skies, green grass, gravel roads and trees rustling in the wind. Heather is a country girl through and through. She grew up on 10 acres of rolling countryside in SE Iowa. Over the course of their marriage, Heather and her husband (Ted) have lived in 3 different states. But, in 2012, when they grew tired of the big, grey city, they moved to Rochester (Ted’s hometown) for some green Minnesota living. Fast forward a few short years and she now has three bustling boys – Everett (2015), Judah (2016) and Monroe (2019). Heather also loves food. Full disclosure - she eats ice cream every night! She is a registered dietitian and is passionate about how she feeds her family. She has had various jobs over the last few years but has recently decided to work as a (very) part-time Hospice Dietitian and stay home with her boys. Her goal is to tell fun motherhood stories and offer her readers with practical tools so they may also feed their families well!
