Homemade Hot Cocoa, DIY Christmas, 7 Quick DIY Money Saving Projects.


I think I've got some really yummy and perhaps a little bit festive things in this post for you.  Please leave me a comment to let me know that someone actually reads my blog and what you think of things (be gentle... LOL!)  :-)

This will be a rather short post though due to the fact that I'm battling a headache induced by an accidental exposure to lavender.  I don't know what it is, but one whiff and whoa nelly... I'm a goner and my family is lucky to avoid my wrath...Poor guys....LOL!




This looks SO good!  I am definitely going to have to try this one this winter!  I have a feeling it's going to be a hard one....though I'd LOVE to be wrong about that.  LOL!

Home Remedies for Pink Eye, Natural remedies for cough & cold season, 12 great uses for Tea Tree Oil andGreat Depression Cooking: Clara's Twice Baked Potatoes (Video).


Hey everyone!  I bet you never thought I'd actually remember to update.  LOL!  Been kind of crazy lately.  Even got a new nephew yesterday... Welcome to the world little Cullen Matthew!  :-)

Anyway, here's a collection of articles and various other information that I thought you might find useful.  Please let me know if you like it and how I can make things even better (just try to keep it nice... LOL!)  :-)




I thought that my public schooling friends and family might like this one... 

And from Natural News.com....



And check this out... I LOVE tea tree oil!  



Some really good stuff!  :-) 

And here's a really great video from Clara (Youtube - Great Depression Cooking)



I really love this lady's videos.  I could really just sit and talk with someone like Clara for hours.  I love the stories that people of her generation (of whom there really aren't many left) can share with us.  I have a feeling that those stories might prove very useful someday soon.
