Rendering Chicken Fat
I know, I know, some of you will cringe at the thought that I actually serve my family food specifically cooked with rendered chicken fat, but as blasphemous as it sounds, as the daughter of a cardiologist I’m still a fan of the Weston Price Foundation‘s traditional foods diet. I believe that the less processed […]
Just Because It’s Free?
I’ve definitely relayed numerous times my life of things that are free. When I don’t need to lay out money to get something, I’ll definitely take it much quicker than if I needed to pay to get the same thing. The question comes down to- is it worth taking anything, just because it’s free? I […]

I’ve been mighty busy today. Doing what, you ask? Making all this, of course: What on earth is all that stuff? Is that really all made from scratch? You betcha it is! These olives, three different kinds, were all picked from the tree by myself and Lee. The green olives on the right were picked […]

10 Ways to Reuse Plastic Bottles
I never (ok, only rarely) buy bottles of soda, juice, and water, but I know many that go through these very quickly.

Communal recycling programs are a good alternative to […]
Homemade Cloth Pads- Type 2
I love reusable cloth menstrual pads. I didn’t have a large enough stash though, and needed to use disposable pads last time my Aunt Flo came. Big mistake. My cycles are so much heavier and more uncomfortable when I’m using chemical saturated disposable sanitary napkins that I hopefully will never need to use them again. […]
