Ok, I’ve been reading MSM for years, and I’ve always wondered: just WHO is Gretchen?
Crystal Paine says
She’s my younger sister. She also works part-time for MSM helping with finding and posting deals. 🙂
Emily says
For the lunches, is mac and cheese with carrots the only thing that is included in that meal?
Gretchen says
Yes! My kids will eat a large portion of mac & cheese to fill them up. 🙂 -Gretchen, MSM Team
Marcela Rhodus says
how old are your children?
Savannah says
I love to see that you are using ground venison – we have so much in our freezer!
Gretchen says
I LOVE when my husband hunts and brings home venison! I pretty much substitute it in every recipe that calls for ground beef and we don’t even taste the difference anymore. 🙂 – Gretchen, MSM Team
