Hey all,

I hope you all are well. I have been feeling pretty blah.(that is what I get for eating that pizza) I Was miserable for 2 days not to mention I got so busy with work stuff that I forgot to take my psyllium and my probiotics. Boy did I pay for it! I have been eating rice and spinach, and a side of chicken or tilapia along with juice and smoothies. I am going to post 2 recipes over on spice goddess so be sure and check those.

Now that I am not feeling so blah, sluggish…

Hey all,

I just got back from eating with my dad. We had veggie sandwiches. I have the ingredients for pain relief lotion bars in my make shift double boiler.(its a big glass measuring cup sitting in a pot filled with water)

I have gained a bit of weight as I have been eating dairy and meat more often that usual. So I went to the health food store and stocked up on a few things. Every week that I go I find something new. I got the staples that I get every week, farm fresh eggs…

Hey all,

In my Ostara post I mentioned that my husband and I color eggs to celebrate. I wanted to mention something I do for my dad every year.

Sometime between Ostara and Earth day, my husband and I color eggs, I make a batch of cookies and other goodies, cupcakes, tarts, breads and I then make a little basket for my dad. I will either use a container(from butter or something like that) decorate it, buy a little decorative aluminum bucket, or re-use a basket or box from…

Hey all I found this wonderful website www..mnn.com the mother nature network. There are tons of fun and educational articles. A few that I read were: 7 things you can make yourself, unique ways to save money, 10 fascinating facts about cats, 7 green things our grandparents did, and the photo of the day. It was a baby koala bear from Germany zoo that was returned to the parents after being removed for a vet check up. It was too cute.

They have a lot…

Hey all,

Here is part 2, the previous post was all about birds

 The next winter project that I have completed are upcycled pin cushions.

As many of you know recycling and upcycling are two hobbies that I am very passionate about.

For the upcycled pin cushions you will need:

-a hot glue gun

-stuffing

-a small tin can(I used a cat food can but a can of olives will work too, or any other can you can find that is small)

-A 4" by 4" square…

Hey all,

Today I made homemade bird suet feeders. Here is the recipe that I used:http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Bird-Suet-Balls

So I followed the recipe exactly, adding raisins. I mixed them up and formed them into balls. I then rolled the balls in a little bit of extra bird seed.

Then I cut 3 mesh onion and clementine bags into rectangles. No specific measurements but I got 3-4 rectangles out of each bag(I…

Hey all,

I was inspired by this post from a conversation that I had with my  supervisor at work a few mornings ago.

We got to talking about various things. And she asked me quite a few questions mostly about being frugal and what I buy and don't buy which most of you that read my posts know those items and my alternatives. So that got me thinking about all the other questions I have been asked lately. So I will share and some of this might be beneficial to someone else that…

Hey all,

I am going to do two posts tonight since I will be working a few extra hours this week.

So my husband and I go pre-approved for our house loan finally. We have decided to live as frugal as we can to save extra money. We don't necessarily need it but it is going to come in handy when we buy new furniture after we pick a house and when we have our first child probably within the next year or so. We have shaved $30 off of our monthly bills so far by lowering the number of…

Hey all,

It has been awhile since I have done a really informative post. I do have a few things planned for my group spice goddess, and a few blogs for my page it just comes down to getting it all posted.

The polar vortex really hit us hard. Upon arrival it was sick with the dreaded  stomach bug that Is hitting a lot of people really hard. I missed two days of work and we were pretty much stranded because by Monday my car battery had died and I couldn't make it anywhere…
