I’ve been seeing these shower spa bombs on Pinterest and really wanted to give them a try. They all seemed to have the same basic instructions, mix soda and water and dry. Time to give them a try! Some instructions said to mix the oils in with the soda water, others said to add the oils after drying the “pucks”. Some recipes said air dry for 24 hours, others said to dry in the oven. After a bit of experimentation […]

Gluten Free Gingerbread Men for the Holidays
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
I don’t know about you, but there is just something about gingerbread that says Christmas. Mother has a lovely thick and gooey gingerbread cake that she often makes and it disappears quickly. However, it’s the little gingerbread men that hold the greatest appeal to a child. A few months ago my son ended up with a nasty rash that only went away after removing gluten from his diet. Of course this made me sad as I thought of all the […]

“Toddler Essentials for On-The-Go was sponsored by WaterWipes as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review.” Are you on-the-go with a toddler? Even though I’m now a stay at home mom, it still seems like we are always going somewhere. Unlike my working days where I had a huge bag with 8+ hours worth of supplies for my little one, I’m not very prepared at all anymore. Really, a toddler doesn’t need much, […]

“I want to eat healthy, but I don’t have time to cook from scratch”. Do you find yourself saying that often? Do you look at the clock and realize once again the only thing you have time for is a freezer pizza or some other heat and serve food? I’ve definitely been there. I used to work until 5:30 – 6:00 4 nights a week and then had a 15 min drive home. Eating real, healthy foods cooked from scratch seemed important, […]

I’ve noticed that the fastest way to spend huge amounts of money on common household items is to run out. If we run out of something, I typically stop at the grocery on the way home and grab it. Two problems with this method: It’s hard to find an environmentally friendly product we like that is also chemical free. If I do find that product it is quite spendy.

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. To start with, here’s the thing about being sick: Since we have mortal bodies that will eventually die, sickness is inevitable. […]
