I'm just a mom who strives to live a healthier, simpler life one step at a time. I'm fascinated with all things natural, homemade, home grown and homeopathic. Alternative medicine intrigues me, but all the conflicting information out there boggles my mind! I guard against being fanatical and strive for balance.
This blog is simply my record of the things I try out. I will share what works for us and what doesn't along with any enlightening information I come across. I will always try to include where I get my info. I welcome you to share your findings/input and encourage you to include your sources as well.
Additional facts about me: *My ideals are way too high for me to EVER live up to. *I'm still not totally convinced there is anything wrong with the water from the sink, but I filter it just in case. *My garden, though it somehow gives me a decent crop, is FULL of weeds. *I only sometimes buy organic. *I don't have chickens, though the thought is tempting; but if I can't even keep my garden weeded... *I homeschool my 3 girls. (relaxed/Charlotte Mason) * I do grind my own wheat and bake my own bread on occasion; NOT religiously!
