Here's My Newest Plan
Many years ago, for numerous years in a row, my new year’s resolution was always the same. To lose weight and tone up. Often, by setting some unrealistic workout plan and diet restrictions that no one on earth could sustain for more than a week or two. After failing this, year after year, and as I learned more and more about proper diet and exercise and grew up and out of my youthful arrogance. I realized that I was going at it all wrong...
All Natural Multi-Purpose Wipes (Hand, Face and Diaper Wipes)

Did Someone Say Chai Tea Latte?
I love chai tea lattes! I love tea in general. My favorite tea flavors are chamomile, blueberry, apple and vanilla. My ultimate favorite is chai tea, specifically over ice with some coconut or almond milk and a dash of cinnamon and sometimes nutmeg too. Often I add a spoonful of stevia if I’m in the mood for something sweet and it hits the spot everytime...

I love going to the farmer’s market and gettings bags full of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, honey and many other delicious items that are sold at the local farmers market.

Growing Down?
The other day, my little guy Xander, he’s three years old, was talking to his dada while they were eating some delicious healthy food. Dada said that Xander needed to eat all his veggies to grow up and to be big and strong. At, first Xander agreed to this notion, but then thought about it and after pondering this for a few minutes, he decided that he didn’t want to grow up big. He said,...
Healthy Kids From the Inside Out Regimen!
This morning I went to give Xander his vitamins and accidently gave him one of my Alfalfa Complex pills. The look of disgust on his face was priceless. In all honesty I totally understood why.

She Had a Brownie for Dinner, What?
Today was a super low key day. Got some work done around the house, worked on my blog, enjoyed some yoga and did some baking with my handy little helper, Xander. He just absolutely loves helping his mama cook, bake, chop and his favorite, stir things up in the kitchen. Of course, whenever it's something sweet, he really loves to muncha, muncha, muncha it all up...
