Making and Using Homemade Royal Icing (Chemical Free) to Decorate Cookies
We just had a lovely party in honor of our baby, Anneliese, on Saturday. (We don’t do baby showers- we welcome babies into the world only after they arrive all the way.) I wanted to make some cute cookies, girly themed (after 2 boys, I’m bringing out the pink full force) to serve at the […]
Homemade Beet Food Coloring Recipe
Food coloring is banned in my house. Or rather, it isn’t… We do have food coloring in out house, its just used to print things in our printer. No, seriously. (See here how we fill our ink cartridges with food coloring.) Whether or not the FDA approves of food coloring’s safety makes no difference to […]
Crazy Cheap and Easy Chocolate Cake Recipe
No, this cake ain’t healthy, nor is it gluten free or sugar free, but it’s got something going for it- its cheap and its easy and its vegan and it doesn’t use any ingredients that are hard to find and it’s ultra easy to make. Pretty much its a good desert to make if you […]
Living Rurally To Save Money
One benefit of rural living- free firewood for heating! Mrs Bushman tackles a fallen tree with her chain saw. I live in a town of approximately 1200 families a 15 minute drive from the entrance to the nearest city. Because of our location, our rent is certainly higher than it would be in a more […]

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe
This is a terrific peanut butter cookie recipe, both for people on a gluten free diet and those not, as it doesn’t call for any specialty flours or specialty ingredients. Its also pretty easy to prepare. No, it’s not sugar free or particularly healthy, but it at least is healthier than store bought cookies with […]
Homemade Sunflower Milk Recipe
I think one of the things I most frequently post about on this blog is how to make non dairy milks. Ok, thats slight an exaggeration, but I’ve already posted instructions on making homemade chickpea milk, sesame milk, and coconut milk, and now I’m posting yet another type of non dairy milk- sunflower milk. Why do […]
Homemade Saline Solution Recipe
Ok, this may seem like a dumb idea for a post, but my little girly is sick and is having breathing trouble and I’ve discovered here via the net a way I can help her without giving her steroids or chemicals, doesn’t cost a lot, and guess what? My doctor totally approves also, so I’m not […]
