Book Review: Gentle Babies, by Debra Raybern
This week, I re-read Gentle Babies, by Debra Raybern. I actually reference this book at least once a week as it has a lot of information about Essential Oils uses and remedies for pregnancy, childbirth, infants and young children. It’s a very handy guide to have if you use essential oils as part of your […]
Non-Toxic Cleaning…
So….Wednesdays are cleaning days. Mostly. I’ve struck somewhat of a balance with family, work, and home that has me doing laundry every day except Wednesdays. And that’s why I don’t mind cleaning on Wednesdays – BECAUSE THERE’S NO LAUNDRY. I was especially looking forward to cleaning today because my amazing mess of a middle child, […]
Tuesday Tea – Green Tea (and Deviled Eggs!)
Good morning! One of my favorite teas to drink is green tea. Green tea is full of antioxidants and amino acids that can help support your brain and overall health. It’s refreshing and light and a great start to the morning. I usually take it with 3 drops of stevia and a drop of grapefruit […]

Friday Fun AND Meal Planning!
Meal planning…daunting, isn’t it? Well, maybe sometimes – especially if you’re in the midst of changing your family’s diet. But, in the next few weeks I will be sharing some of my meal planning and prep strategies that have worked with my crazy awesome family of 5, and how I’m dealing with a 5-year old, […]
My favorite tea this week!
Herbal Tea…yumm! It’s a zero calorie relaxing treat any time of day! I drink alot of herbal tea each day but the one I’ve enjoyed the most this week is Numi Gratitude blend. It’s a very earthy tea with a bit of sweetness/licorice flavor in it. I take it unsweetened but I bet it would […]
