DIY Herbal Mouse Deterrent

By Tiffany Leave a Comment

Mice are part of life in many parts of the Midwest. This fact was a big eye opener for me when I moved to the area from the Southwest. We have so many agricultural crops here that mice and other vermin make their homes among the crops and then come harvest time they decide to move into your home. I just can't share a home with them so if they do decide to make an appearance we break out the traps. Before it gets to that point though I always like to try and deter them first. The following is … [Read more...]

Holistic Solutions for Back to School Illness

By Tiffany 7 Comments

With so many children in one place if one of them has a runny nose and cough then logically many will end up with it. What can you do? Well, actually there is quite a bit we can do to prevent illness … [Read more...]

10 Ways to Reuse Tea Bags

By Tiffany 5 Comments

If you’re a tea drinker, you may be wondering what to do with all those leftover tea bags. This has only recently become a concern in our house. Before we started brewing our own Kombucha (fermented tea) we were just occasional tea drinkers, maybe a cup of sleepy time tea all around once a week or so. My 12 year old would also make iced tea here and there. We just composted our tea bags. As the quantity grew though I decided we might find some other uses for them. Here are a few things you can … [Read more...]
