Methylisothiazoline, or MIT – Never heard of it? Well, it’s a chemical used in many shampoos that have been linked to neurological damage. Neurological damage. From a shampoo. [...]

{Be sure to check out my Eco Natural Soap giveaway!} Have you ever waited for something? I mean really waited? What does it even mean to wait, especially in our have-it-now society? {photo credit} In the last few days I have begun wondering what it means to wait upon the Lord. Psalm 27:14 {NLT} says: “Wait [...]

{Be sure to check out my Eco Natural Soap giveaway!} I love food. I’ve never been a salad-on-a-date kinda girl. Give me steak. Give me pizza. Give me real food. I stumbled some posts this week with recipes of foods I just have to make. Seriously, it took all my will power not to make them [...]

{Be sure to check out my Eco Natural Soap giveaway!} Today is Jonathan’s birthday. I have to say, I am truly amazed by his life.

For the last couple of months, I’ve been daydreaming about having a mother’s corner. Just a little nook all to myself for reading, sewing, relaxing. Jonathan and I agreed that the best spot in the house would be the laundry room. It gets the least traffic {especially from the Windhamettes}, is rather large and has [...]

It was a first attempt {and one of Jonathan’s favorite soups ever} so I was a little weary of how things might turn out. Because of that, I didn’t take step-by-step pictures like I have before.
