It’s Friday already! it has been a busy, busy week. Not that getting my business degree hasn’t been a handful. Also, I started my journey on getting my nutrition certification. Ever since I’ve begun blogging, I’ve been studying nutrition and how to heal through food.
To further my education in culinary nutrition, I signed up to get certified in nutrition. The next three months will be busy and hard, but I think they will be worth it. Plus, I love learning about nutrition and organic living. Therefore, this will be fun and educational.
