In my home you might hear poop talk a little more than in the typical family household. Not potty jokes or anything like that but real, honest discussion about how important pooping is and why we need to make sure the plumbing is humming along okay. I wasn't always gung ho about poop, it just kinda happened around the age of 28. That is the year I found out I had stage 3 colon cancer. I was faced with a big surgery to remove a large section of colon and most of my lower lymph nodes and at … [Read more...]
SodaStream Super Bowl Commercial Rejected
I admit to you that I did not watch the Super Bowl. It did not play anywhere in my home and we attended no parties. My husband and I could give two licks about football so why bother? I guess this also means I missed out on all the wonderfully entertaining commercials but I will survive I think. Because I didn't watch I don't care to get irate about the inappropriate content of the commercials. I have two eyes that are capable of looking away when I see stuff I don't like anyway. I see no … [Read more...]
Earth Day Conscious Box
Okay, it has been a couple months since I reviewed the Conscious Box. Sadly, I was not in love with their Valentines Box and it prevented me from purchasing the following month.

The oats we can't eat because we are grain free. I can forgive that because they had NutCase Crunch in one of their earlier … [Read more...]
Another Reason to Love My Bazura Bags
Last year I got some Bazura Bags to use for packed lunches. We like them quite a bit for that use, the kids especially. A lunch bag made of recycled juice bags just has a cool factor I guess. I like them for quickie lunches on the go because they have carrying handles and it looks like a purse. Well, I am finding another wonderful use for them that makes them a bit superior to our other lunch bags/boxes... we can use them for food storage when not in use. The medium size Bazura has become my … [Read more...]
Keeping Cool in the Kitchen
Cooks know that as the temperatures outside increases, the desire to cook decreases. It has already hit me full force... I don't want to heat the kitchen by using my oven at all. And it isn’t due to lack of wanting to cook I just have the need to keep our home as cool as possible. We don't run our air conditioner willy nilly because we don't want to be energy hogs.. or spend extra money on energy bills. This is why baking is done mostly in the winter months and cool dishes are served during the … [Read more...]
