Hi. I’m Mary J. Blackburn and although I do like to ramble, I’m never quite sure what to write on these pages. :)

Do you want to know about my personal life?

I live in the beautiful rolling hills of Western Pennsylvania, with my husband of 32 years and a menagerie of animals.  Including, but not limited to my beloved labrador retriever, Charlie.  I have 2 lovely little grandaughters with whom I can never spend too much time, and 2 grown children.  When I’m not working, I enjoy gardening, decorating, camping, sightseeing / traveling, cooking, and living life in general.  Not necessarily in that order.

What about my business?

I have been building an online business since 2004 and after a couple of false starts and wrong turns have found my true niche.  I am now an affiliate marketer, blogger, and owner of a recipe website.  Before that I worked full time with my husband as his secretary, bookkeeper, and general girl friday at our locksmith business.

I will close in saying that I absolutely love what I am doing, and genuinely want to help others succeed in building an online business that is not only lucrative but also one that they can be proud of .
