Rita Templeton - Rita Templeton

I am a freelance writer and blogger - and, most importantly, the busy mother of three curious and imaginative little boys. It's a good thing that researching is one of my biggest passions, because I'm perpetually inundated with the most random of questions ("Mommy, do praying mantises have compound eyes?"). I love learning new things - even about praying mantises - and sharing that knowledge with others.

When I'm not writing, Googling something, or cleaning up some disastrous mess, you can find me in the kitchen or at the gym. I never met a dessert I didn't like, which is part of the reason why working out is an absolute necessity. Luckily, it's also a pleasure - I'm a licensed Zumba instructor and love it!
