Melissa Vera is the creator and contributor of four beautiful and informative blogs: Adventures of Frugal Mom, Champagne Style Bare Budget, Reading with Frugal Mom, and her most recent venture coming soon, The Writer and The Farmer.

Melissa— a 50-something mom of three young women (ranging in age from 25 to 18)— is happily married to her husband Raul (native of Mexico) of 25 years where they reside in Goldsboro, North Carolina.

She self- describes this moment in time as her transition into life as an empty nester.

When Melissa isn’t writing or interviewing women in business on her blog, she spends her spare time reading and crafting— among other talents and interests.

If you are looking for a blog that shares about travel, life in general, the three “M” words (Marriage, Menopause, Motherhood), everyday topics with an occasional recipe or craft thrown in then you have found the perfect blogger to follow.

She does it all! And is so good at what she does!
