Jennifer and her husband believe that although they planned their wedding quickly and far from impeccably, their timing couldn’t have been better: on their honeymoon they wound up getting pregnant with twins. In addition to domesticating her two wild garbanzos, Jennifer spends her time keeping a grip on our website—and occasionally we even let her out of the office for road trips to write some location profiles.
