The Best Life Awaits
Stable. Capable. Free.
we converted our typical suburban yard into a mini farm. We grow it and cook it. saving money, staying healthy, and staying Free. we try to keep it simple. on our time. on our terms!
We wanted to master the life we were building - on our own terms, at our own pace. We became more self sufficient, more conscious of our food, health, activities and life choices. We're learning how to worry less and live more.
The Best Life Awaits is our way of showing what we do and how do it.
Like many families, we were busy. Busy schedules, busy goals, busy everything. As a mixed-race couple raising a family, we realized the moments that mattered most were the simple, intentional ones: family, cooking together, planting in the garden, walking or taking a hike, laughing at our cultural differences, exploring new places, or simply reading.
We embraced Self-Sufficiency and saving money through Grow It and Fix It. We know exactly what goes into our food through Cook It. We try to be healthy and active -- Explore It -- so we stay strong and independent.
