Post by Contributing Writer, Holly Never would I have thought I would come to appreciate, even admire, the common dandelion (i.e., “Taraxacum officinale”). What I once called a stubborn, defiant, nuisance of a weed, I now describe as a timeless, medicinal cornucopia – a medicinal plant with no rival – with an impressive recipe Continue reading The Dandelion – A Medicinal Cornucopia {And Edible}   This sale is now over. The books are available for purchase individually, if you are particularly interested in a certain title, but the bundle is no longer available. You already know I love the thrift store. It’s my favorite place to stock up on classic books, cute clothing, and replace dishes the kids broke last week. My Continue reading Homemaking Helps on a Budget My midwife and chiropractor each have given me the same encouragement over the past year: “Exercise/Stretch for Healing; Repair that Muscle Damage!” (“Ok, thanks,” I said.

The natural remedies were stocked in our medicine box, and have worked well. But it still felt a bit like we were waiting it out; that Continue reading Essential Oil Remedies for Croup
Post by Contributing Writer, Katie Spring is here! With the change of weather many of us are spending more time in the garden planting seeds and seedlings.

We are working on various projects this week, so I’m keeping everything simple in the kitchen. There are easy “finger food” meals for quick serving (or on-the-go), and basic crockpot-type suppers. Day Sun 4/21 Mon 4/22 Tue 4/23 Continue reading Menu Plan {4.21-27}
Our family tends to move often, but at each place we’ve lived, I’ve tried to grow a bit of a garden- whether it is in little pots or a garden patch. Medicinal herbs are a valuable asset to your growing space, alongside all those delicious edibles! If you are wondering where to start, here are Continue reading Top 10 Choices for a Medicinal Herb Garden Embracing the seasons of motherhood often means blessing others who have spiritually and physically mothered and mentored me, rather than focusing on my own season.
