Small business idea, thoughts?
Hi! I was at the gym this morning and got to thinking about a small business idea. I'm curious if you would be interested in a fresh healthy smoothies/shake pre or post workout?

In-laws are moving in, how is MFP going to work? Ah!
My in-laws are moving in and I'm SO excited! They are wonderful in-laws and it's going to be like a vacation for me. I'm truly blessed! They will be living with us until they get a job and get a place of their own. They are in their early 60's. We're thinking 1-3 months. YAY! I do want to preface this with the fact that…
