More Thyme, LLC

Image
More Thyme owns and operates MealMixer.com, and serves people who believe that a meal is more than just food on the table. The subscribers we serve believe that meals are to be crafted with care to achieve enjoyable taste and sound nutrition--they are gifts given to themselves, their family, and occasionally their friends. Our customers understand the value of a weekly menu and organized grocery lists, and prefer them to searching the pasta aisle for deals and hoping to remember what vegetable to serve with their selected pre-packaged spaghetti. They understand that planning is the key to a delicious enjoyable meal and a healthy life--and we do too.

We serve our subscribers through MealMixer.com, which comprises highly-customizable online meal and diet planning tools combined with a database of well-tested recipes and meals (free of advertiser influence), as well as meal planning and dieting articles that together help them achieve the healthy enriched lifestyle they seek. Some are dieters needing to lose weight, others have a loved one with food allergies or a medical condition like diabetes, celiac disease, or autism, while others are looking for optimum health through diet and exercise, or are working with professions through MealMixer to achieve a medical/health result. For all of these subscribers, our planners make it easy to get the right meals on the table for who and where they are in life.

Our company name comes from three related concepts: (1) getting a better variety of more flavorful food on the table ("thyme"), being healthy for a longer life ("time") and being more efficiency with our "time" through planning.

Leadership

Marianne Blaesing, Executive Editor

Image
At the tender age of 12, Marianne put a frozen pork roast in the oven, cooked it to a golden brown, and did not understand why it was still frozen in the middle; it’s been uphill ever since. Marianne uses her more than three decades of cooking experience and study to provide insightful commentary and suggestions on all things revolving around home meal planning.

Marianne has studied at Madonna University and Eastern Michigan University, has taken numerous courses on cooking related subjects and dieting. She has been a humor writer whose eponymous column appeared in Ann Arbor Family Press for many years. She was also their restaurant reviewer in search of family friendly restaurants, which furthered her belief that the best meals are those prepared in the home.

Russ Blaesing, President

Russ has worked in the software industry for more than twenty-five years. He dreamed-up MealMixer one day when he heard a friend tell him "I love to cook, I just can't stand figuring out what to cook." Solving this problem is now just a small part of what drives him as he has seen the health of our citizenry decline along with the social/ethical values imparted over the family dinner table.

Before founding More Thyme,LLC (owner of MealMixer.com), Russ was Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Menlo Innovations, an Ann Arbor software product development company specializing in a unique and highly effective methodology for determining software requirements called “high-tech anthropology”, as well as agile software development methodologies. Prior to Menlo, Russ held the positions of: Director of Automotive Business Development for Framework Technologies, President of MyMealPlan, Inc., (the pre-cursor to More Thyme circa the dotcom-bubble), Major Account Executive and Manager of Software Development at Open Networks Engineering (ONE)

Mr. Blaesing earned a Bachelor of Science degree (1985) from the University of Michigan, where he majored in both Computer Science and Philosophy, and conducted independent research on the efficiency of Artificial Intelligence algorithms.
