Just because a Product says “Probiotic”, is it really?

November 22, 2019 by Kendra 2 Comments

I’ve taken probiotics off and on for close to 20 years now. Some have worked better than others. Some didn’t work at all. Even the Plexus brand which many people love didn’t do much for me, and when pregnant I was miserably constipated. I started my whole journey to find a new (and better probiotic) a couple of months ago. What I found was amazing! I learned so much that I started sharing my findings on my Facebook page as […]

Which Reusable Straw is Best?

June 7, 2019 by Kendra 9 Comments

Glass, stainless, bamboo… So many choices, how do you know which reusable straw is best? Perhaps though, we start by looking at WHY you should be considering reusable straws. I’ve written a lot about stewardship here on the blog and I believe firmly in taking care of the blessings God has given us. Good stewardship goes FAR beyond simply managing money well. We are to be good stewards of ALL our blessings. Taking care of our body(health), family, friends, money, […]

*Note: I am not a doctor and do not offer medical advice. Below I’m simply sharing information I found helpful and useful to myself and our family. What you do with this information is your responsibility. A couple of years ago Jason came home from work sick. I sent him straight to bed and shut the door, hoping that our boys and I would escape the stomach bug. I was trying to be optimistic. However, Jason and I easily get […]

Free Summer Chef’s Set with Mrs. Meyer’s and Grove!

May 9, 2017 by Kendra 2 Comments

Spring and summer are my favorite times of year for cooking — or eating, at the very least! Colorful eggplant, juicy tomatoes, and bright berries from the garden are as delicious as they are nourishing. Everything tastes better fresh from the garden. And simple grilled or no-cook meals leave more time for sipping lemonade on the patio.   One thing that I don’t enjoy during the summer (or anytime for that matter), is shopping for household essentials. Who wants to run […]

The secret to grandma's chicken broth - how to make bone broth

Chicken soup has long been touted as Grandma’s “cure-all” for sicknesses. Thing is, as a kid I was never impressed with the taste and the health benefits seemed nonexistent. A few years ago, I finally learned the secret to grandma’s chicken soup! Food for thought:  When our grandmas were little girls, their mamas would make chicken soup with a whole chicken, bones and all. This broth would not only be delicious, it was also very nutrient dense. When I was a child, chicken […]

Nontoxic pillow and lounger review and giveaway

Disclaimer: Brentwood Home provided me with the nontoxic pillow and lounger found in the Kids Bundle free in exchange for a fair and honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. For us, buying a new mattress or pillows has two HUGE drawbacks. Number one being the cost, and number two being the fact that most mattresses contain toxic glues and adhesives, along with fire retardants and more. Offgassing of these chemicals is a huge concern to me. Our […]

Thoughts on Thinx - do period underwear really work, or are they just nasty?

Disclaimer: In order to facilitate my thoughts on Thinx, I was sent a free pair of Thinx for review. I must admit, I never thought I would be sharing photos of my underpants. It’s really just not something a lady does. Sometimes though, there are exceptions and today is an exception. Today, I’m sharing my thoughts on Thinx, underwear specifically designed for menstruation. Longtime readers will already know that I avoid tampons like the plague. Because tampons are considered “medical devices” […]

When sharing my shopping list for Aldi, I mentioned making oyster soup and a reader asked if I had a recipe. I do! Here is my Creamy Oyster Soup recipe you and your family’s enjoyment. My recipe really only serves two. I make it for the toddler and I at lunch. There’s just enough left over for a small bowlful to enjoy later.

Our Aldi is about 15 minutes away which is really nice. However, my favorite grocery is within walking distance so Aldi, like Sam’s Club is a once a month store.  Below I’m sharing my monthly shopping list for Aldi. One thing I really love about this Aldi is how they are adding organic products! We went on Tuesday for the first time in 2 months and they had added a number of new items and their baby line of products. […]

Spending Quality Time While Doing the Ordinary

Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.

June 21, 2016 by Kendra 5 Comments

Spending quality time together, even if it's doing something totally ordinary like shopping for Lil' Beanies snacks at Kroger and eating them!

Spending quality time with each of my babies is important. But it’s often hard. And I only have 2 kids. Malachi is easy enough, he needs my constant care so he gets lots of “mommy time”, but it’s a little harder with the toddler. Problem is, I cannot always do anything special with just my toddler. We read books, but baby is taking most of the attention. We take walks, but baby faces mommy, and toddler faces forward. I know […]

I’ve been told that eggnog is only good around the holidays. In my opinion that’s just not true! I love eggnog all year round so today I’m sharing my homemade eggnog recipe. Rich, creamy milk, egg yolks, vanilla, maple syrup and a few spices make this delectable drink something to crave. My toddler will chug a glass of it faster than anything else too. I promise.

It’s spring! The grass is green and growing and that means the weeds are too. I know it may be tempting and those yellow flowers annoying, don’t spray your yard! Grow useful lawns and learn to appreciate humble weeds. Around here, we like useful lawns. Others can have their posh green carpeting that the kids cannot play on for several nights each month due to chemical sprays. We have a pretty green yard that’s dotted with yellow and white flowers, […]

If you don’t have time to diy your own cleaning stuff, or if you’ve realized that diy cleaning hacks don’t always work, you’re probably in the same boat as I was. Stuck buying natural cleaning stuff every month or so. Then a friend invited me to a Norwex party. Now I […]

Recipe for homemade dark chocolate bars, paleo approved!

What is a girl to do when she is craving chocolate and there is none in the house? She finds a recipe for homemade dark chocolate! And then because she is picky, she ends up tweaking the recipe a few times to suit her. Resulting in a large stash of homemade dark chocolate in her fridge from various attempts at perfecting her recipe! I’m not 100% sure I’m satisfied with the recipe yet, but for now I’m done “messing” with it. […]

How to make elderberry gummy vitamins.

A few months ago I made a new batch of elderberry syrup and I turned half of it into elderberry gummy vitamins. After sharing a photo of them on Instagram and Facebook I had a lot of requests for my recipe. Honestly, my elderberry syrup recipe is pretty simple and elderberry gummy vitamins just need one more ingredient to take them from syrup to gummies. Why make gummies? Good question since most kids will take down elderberry syrup without batting an […]
