Hello and welcome back to Connect FCS Ed, thank you so much for listening! Today I have an amazing guest with me from the Twin Cities, Minnesota Area, the one and only, Momma Bear. Or lovingly known as Ms. Michelle, who has a wonderful YouTube channel.

Michelle has been teaching for 26 years, and when she first started,she only had a budget of maybe $100. So at that point, she didn't have very many students, but enough that she was worried about her budget. Because of this, she started trying to create and recipes that we were able to spread across the whole year without breaking her budget.

Michelle started this model cheap and deep, making things at a cheap indeed. And so as the budget grew and the kids grew in a year after year, she still kept the model cheap and deep. Because most of us are in the same position where we don't have a huge budget, where we can just spend money on steak and shrimp and lobster... That's not reality.
