Wow, my daughter passed this video along to me. What do you think?! It’s a commercial for a DVD set showing you how to harvest and use the herbs and weeds that grow everywhere… but the information is pretty neat. When I was a girl, my parents went “redneck,” and we ate squirrels and some [...]

The Continuing Raw Meal Drink Smoothie Saga….
March 29, 2011
I’m still at it, folks. Yep. I’m STILL trying to finish off this HUGE barrel of raw meal health powder. But Lord help me, it’s awful stuff. If you search for “raw meal drink” in the search bar, you’ll see the posts I’ve written on the topic. I bought the Garden of Life Raw Meal [...]
Health Foods Are Exhausting
March 11, 2011
Kind of. All the energy you have to put in to watch what you eat! And research it! And buy it and prepare it and then eat it! And then I have to work to earn it so I can provide it! Whew, I’m tired already! I recently learned — shocking news to me— that [...]
Raw Meal Green Drink Update #2
March 8, 2011
Weeelll….. I haven’t been drinking it regularly. Honestly, the stuff is disgusting. I’ve tried mixing it with grape juice, orange juice, strawberry Quik, chocolate milk, and Ovaltine. One of my readers suggested I dump it in a strawberry smoothie– which I haven’t done yet and intend to do as soon as I can get my [...]

One of my online pals, Rena, has a new blog called Back to Basics. It’s really neat! She’s only just started it, but already it has a lot of very helpful tips and ideas for making your life healthier, simpler, and less toxic. That issue has been on my mind a great deal, too. The [...]
Easy Quesadillas
February 25, 2011
I went to a Chili’s restaurant for the first time last week. I’m not terribly fond of Mexican food, and I admit I did hesitate a little when going in there. But I ordered some chicken quesadillas, and they were quite yummy. I was astonished at the portion sizes there, I couldn’t even eat half [...]
The Antioxidant Superhero
February 7, 2011
As I’m delving more and more into natural remedies and general living, I found a terrific surprise! Cinnamon has FIVE TIMES the antioxidant power of 1/2 cup blueberries! Recent, surprising studies show that some herbs and spices are antioxidant powerhouses — and that cinnamon is the second highest. (Cloves are the first, but are harder [...]
Tsatziki Cucumber Yogurt Dip
January 7, 2011
My daughter made this dip, took the photos and wrote this guest post. The dip is SOOOO GOOD. It’s so good for you, too. It’s great with vegetables, corn chips, on salmon, everything! The amount may seem like a lot, but if your family likes this, the dip will be gone in a day. It [...]
More Experimentation with Raw Meal Drink
December 18, 2010
I hope this is not too boring for you. It’s not like I’m blogging about fabulous games on the xbox or reviewing spectacular films or books… raw meal drink is rather… well, boring, I guess. But I WANT to drink this stuff; I WANT to be healthier. So far, I’ve tried mixing the raw meal [...]
Raw Meal Drink Update
December 14, 2010
I’ve been experimenting with the Raw Meal drink I got a few weeks ago. You can read more about it here. It’s not pleasant stuff. It tastes like latex paint and it’s like drinking powder, the stuff is so thick. But it’s very good for you. So I’ve been searching for ways to make it [...]
