For more than 20 years I’ve been infatuated with all things herbs, essential oils and healing with food. I took a few aromatherapist courses. I made healing balms, and cough easing blends for family. I was so into it my kids started calling me the White Witch. But somewhere… it went to the way... Continue Reading →
Healthy(ier) eating
I'm really trying to get my health going in the right direction again... one meal at a time. I'm not going to lie, it's not easy. You know what is easy? Running down the street to Culver's, or downtown for Mexican, or Italian... But... it's easier on my pocketbook and my cholesterol if I cook... Continue Reading →
Water is our Friend

I keep it cool at all times to help keep the hot flashes and night sweats away or a least to a minimum. I'm one of those over thinkers...... Continue Reading →
Sensory Overload

Getting my life back…
Y'all, I think I'm taking my life back... or maybe my life is taking me back... either way, I'm so glad. I've been leaving my phone... like when I go upstairs or downstairs, I don't even think about taking my phone! This is HUGE for me. I always have my phone near by in case... Continue Reading →
In the moment…
Does anyone else have trouble being completely in the moment? It's awful! My mind is always in 10+ different places. Always! When I'm watching tv, listening to music, cooking, crocheting, talking on the phone, meditating (though this one is getting better), driving, blogging... you name it. Even when I'm reading!! I often have to read... Continue Reading →
Do you meditate?
Well, my intention was to get back here on Wednesday but that's the day I get to spend with DD so... that didn't happen. Then I just knew it would be yesterday, Thursday, but, alas... it also didn't happen. So here we are today and I have no idea what I want to say. So... Continue Reading →
Why?
Y'all I am heartbroken. I’m so tired of this pandemic, I’m tired of the non-sensical fight, I’m tired of the misinformation that is constantly being circulated. What is wrong with the people who started all that misinformation? Do they just hate humanity? Are they trying to cull the herd? Do they think they are Thanos?... Continue Reading →
Care Givers at heart…
Anyone out there a care giver personality? I meaning a care giver at heart not someone forced to be because of circumstances (you are so important so special but for this post I’m talking about something different) someone who gives care without even thinking and not because you have to because you’re a wife or...

A controversial discussion… sort of…
Photo by Craig Adderley on Pexels.com So, I'm going to be controversial. I'm sorry but it has to be said. No, it's not politics and it's not religion either... well, that is unless, you make food your religion. Here it goes. Why is food such an important part of EVERYTHING? I mean I get it...
