Chard, leek and broccoli quiche…
In an effort to eat my veggies (as many as possible) I came up with this quiche recipe. My usual quiche tends to be mostly egg with small bits of spinach (or broccoli) and bacon dispersed throughout. My goal here was to create a vegetarian quiche that was nearly solid veggies, just held together with the…

Delicious Peanut Butter Fudge aka “Fat Bomb”
I don’t really care for the term “fat bomb” or when people make some sort of creamy fatty concoction that’s served in a cup…and then call it “candy.” No one is gonna convince me that eating “candy” that has a thick pudding consistency is the same as eating a frozen Kit Kat or a frozen…

Potato Leek Soup with Kale
I made the yummiest soup. I’ve been planning broccoli cheddar but I was out of carrots and forgot to add them to my farm order this week, and I have a ton of potatoes from last week’s order that I hadn’t used…and I got a ton of beautiful kale as well as leeks in this…

Smoked salmon quiche with spinach…and more!
I’ve been a tad obsessed with quiche lately…it’s a great comfort food and without the crust (or with a coconut or almond flour crust) it’s pretty primal and low-carb. I love smoked salmon (hot smoked or cold smoked) but since I’m trying to avoid eating bagels (my favorite carrier for smoked salmon) I decided to…

My journey to Wicca…
Past Lives From a young age, I’ve experienced vivid memories of past lives. Once, at age four, I led my mother to the spot where I said I had once died and described my former death and past life in detail. The memories and experiences have faded as I’ve grown older but I still have strong feelings…

Remember, we’re only human.
I recently had a string of bad experiences on Ebay. I’ve been a member for over 15 years so what happened kind of shocked me. But what shocked me even more was the way people reacted and treated me. I had a ton of Proactiv products I wasn’t using (too much auto-ship) so I decided…

Lavender to the rescue!
I have another personal success story…really excited about it. I have a bunch of spots on my arms, shoulders and upper back that have bothered me for years. I’ve had three skin cancer checks and have been told they are anything from acne (no), normal moles (totally not, I really don’t think so) to keratosis pilaris…

Homemade Liquid Soap
It’s no secret I’m more than a little obsessed with essential oils! I signed up with my essential oil company a couple years ago, primarily so I could order at wholesale prices. I had used EOs for years before a friend introduced me to dōTERRA, but I had never felt comfortable taking them internally before I found…

Emergency meal planning…
I’ve mentioned before that my family recently suffered a 35% pay cut. We had no notice and a tiny bit of severance, and this all started during the holidays and just a couple months after we closed on our home. We had some legal issues related to the home we were leasing and we’d just plunked down…

Essential Oils: Tension Blend
Since I always have been somewhat of a mess physically AND emotionally, I have a lot to say about how essential oils have changed my life for the better. Since childhood I’ve suffered from an array of maladies…anxiety, panic attacks, asthma, frequent bronchitis and pneumonia, knee pain, lower back pain, joint pain, migraines, cluster headaches,…
