Of course the idea, is NOT to get a sunburn. Sometimes, that just doesn’t work out. When you get a little too much sun… or worse, if your kiddos do, having this little jar of relief will make you, (as usual) a superhero. My girlfriend Bathsheba’s brother was visiting from France and they had spent…
Rainbow Salad
I just tried this out on my guinea pigs… errr… girlfriends, last night. It totally killed! I wanted to serve some sort of snack but I wanted to start with items that were already in my pantry instead of hitting the store for every single ingredient. My base ingredients were a can of corn, a…
Lavender Honey Sugar Scrub
This is such a simple recipe and it’s not only good for personal use but makes a great hostess gift! Hell… It’s good for any gift! This scrub has a TON of benefits. The sugar itself is a great exfoliant and will leave your skin looking bright and feeling smooth. The lavender is calming and…
Bentonite Turmeric Facial Mask
I have struggled with my skin for years. I have adult acne that is cystic and painful at times. When I eat properly and drink plenty of water I always see an improvement but it’s never quite “good”. I went to a dermatologist and he gave me some oral meds that helped. I don’t however,…

Fat Tuesday: BACON
I thought it would be fun to have a reoccurring thematic post. I got the idea from my friend Jane over at http://www.theheritagecook.com If you don’t know her, you should make a point to do so. She is fantastic and unlike me, is an actual cook/chef/recipe developer extraordinaire. Seriously, go there. Jane does “Chocolate Monday”….
Peach Lavender Jam
I have a vivid childhood memory about jam. I was in the grocery store with my grandma and I asked for some jelly that had Disney characters on it. The marketing totally worked there, Walt. My gramma (That’s how I’ve always spelled it when referring to her) looked at me like I was crazy and…

We made some blue fun dough… and a mess!
I needed to get some work done today and knew that I would be spending the day around the house. We live pretty busy lives and spending entire days at home is a rarity. I do not enjoy the cabin fever that sets in when busy kids get “bored”. So, even though they had a…

The Play Date Meets The Snack-Lace
Aaaahhhhh, the play date. We schedule these gatherings for reasons that vary from parent to parent. Some moms do it to add to their child’s development in a very purposeful way. Some mamas arrange play dates to get out of the house and see some new faces. A parent may have a play date with…
