This is so important!!

Best crafty thing you can do – make your own garden! Create intentions to be a little more self-reliant and grow food – a little bit or a lot, just grow something!!!

Remember to buy good seeds too! Purchase organic or heirloom varieties from a trusted source -

Gardening is fun & you’ll be proud – hooray for homegrown!!!

d.i.y.friday ~ Capsule Your Own Herbal Powders

Making herbal capsules yourself can be fun & necessary if you are wanting a unique blend of herbs just for you! It’s also a frugal thing to buy bulk herbs & save $$!!

There’s two ways to capsule herbs – by hand or invest in a capsule machine (what I need to do!)

Here’s our home video of the first time we capsuled herbs by hand. SO Sorry for the crooked video-taping!! I seem to regularly forget the correct way to hold the phone when making a video (the comfy way is the wrong way, I guess)

And now, about that capsule machine…

AND, because I always stumble upon something extra that strikes me as fabulous – what about not even using capsules at all and instead, making pills?? Yes! Loving this idea too!!

Okay – that was pretty fun!  Any ideas on what herbal blend you’d like to make for yourself?

When shopping for bulk herbs, please visit my 3 favorite places:

Bulk Herb Store
Mountain Rose Herbs
and Amazon

Power of a Bow

How handy-dandy can a little bow-tie be?
Just grab some chicken wire & yarn,
And you will see!

Until the chicken coop is fitted with a proper door, I think my Sadie-fashioned gate will work out just fine… for now anyways! The girls needed to reclaim their roaming space – being locked in the hen house, they were feeling too cooped up!

haha :)

Healthy Snack: Raisin Delights

20120201-233217.jpg

Delicious!

I discovered a quick & easy snack to make in your food processor –

1 cup raisins
3/4 cup pecans or walnuts
1/4 cup carob powder
1/2 tsp coconut oil (optional)

Process! Roll into balls & coconut if you wish. Seriously, I think these are fantastic.

Many ways to reinvent too ~ use dates or figs or apricots. Use any nut or seed… Wow, thinking we found a winner folks!

Change to fluorescent bulbs
If every house in the United States changed all of the light bulbs in their house, that would be equivalent to taking one million cars off the streets.
