ChefWife
I'm a twenty something chefwife married to a twenty something chef. I set up this blog as a place for wives, girlfriends, significant others, and anyone else stuck to a chef to come together and chirp to each other about how to deal with the nonsense that goes along with being the wife of a chef. I was struggling to live with a ghost of a husband who I never saw.I met two other chef wives that literally saved me. It was with that, that I realized there must be more who need love and support too, right? -Hilary Battes, First Lady Desperate Chefs'Wives

Educational Support

Although this blog is mainly a source of information for chefs' wives and the like it does involve a lot of aspects of my own life and I'm in need of some support. I found a great site for educators called Donors Choose. On this site, teachers make lists of things they need, write proposals and donors choose which school/teachers/causes to financially support. My proposal will end in September and if I don't have enough funds, I don't get anything.

My proposal is Magnetic Math, a resource of large math manipulatives for my second graders to help teach math concepts that will be carried over into third grade and beyond. Please forward my proposal to any philanthropists or wealthy lovers of education you know or even any teachers you know who work in low income schools or who can't afford materials they need. Thanks for passing it on!

Why is there a picture of Erik & Wylie when I click on Magnetic math?
