How to Have a Fresh Smelling Home without Toxins!

December 3, 2019 by Kendra 5 Comments

We all want a fresh-smelling home without toxins. But how?!? During the winter months, our homes often began to get a stale smell. And if all the ads are to be believed, now is when you need to run out and grab an air freshener stat! What advertisers DON’T tell you is that their fancy “smell-good” products are filled with fragrances that are anything but safe and natural. The fragrances release VOCs (volatile organic compounds) which are linked to various […]

*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 […]

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 […]

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, […]

Looking for a preservative, dye and corn sugar free vitamin c for toddlers? Try this vitamin C gummy recipe for toddlers quick and easy to make and kids love them! #MeAndMyTea #ad #cbias

This post- Vitamin C Gummy Recipe has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #MeAndMyTea #CollectiveBias One thing Jason and I have always reached for at the first sign of a cold is VitC. As an immune booster it’s one of our go-tos every-time. Last winter Kolton still received most of his nutrients through my milk so I counted my VitC dosage for him too. Now he’s a toddler and needs his own VitC. But yipes! […]

Cholestasis of Pregnancy Will NOT Control Me +Linkup

September 13, 2015 by Kendra 6 Comments

Long time readers will remember how my plans for a homebirth with my first child were interrupted by a necessary induction due to a diagnosis of Cholestasis (ICP). Saddened by the loss of my “ideal birth” and scared for the safety of my baby, not to mention the unbearable itching that is a symptom of cholestasis; I wondered if I should ever get pregnant again. (ICP has a 70% recurrence chance) We wanted more babies though and now, a year after my first […]

A homemade mocha gummy bears recipe using herbal and regular coffee!

With my first pregnancy I craved gummy bears. But after I ate them I felt sooo sick. Most likely I was craving the gelatin, since I would also pig out on jello. This time around gummies are already sounding good again. But I didn’t want to eat them and feel sick, so I started looking for gummy bear recipes. Before I tried any of them, something landed in my inbox and I knew it was perfect. A Mocha Gummy Bears recipe in […]

  “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, […]

In America we are truly blessed. Today’s grocery stores offer a huge selection to choose from. We can choose from junk filled products that make our taste buds tingle, products that are non GMO certified, products that are USDA Certified organic and just about everything else in between. USDA Certified Organic has a big draw to families who wish to eat healthy. (The downside of course is the price). With all these choices, many are scratching their heads and asking, Is Certified […]
