I’ve been wanting to make waffles for my dog for a while now and today I bit the bullet and made her some. She loved it! Seriously this is the best treat I’ve made her so far and it was so easy. I made sure to use healthy ingredients but ones that she would enjoy. She’s my special pup and brings our family such joy so I felt she deserved a treat. Of course she ended up eating two of them while I was trying to get her picture but that’s all she will get today. (And no I don’t let my dog sit at the table … just for this picture.) 🙂

These dog biscuits are made entirely from baby food. This is an easy, economical and healthy way to treat your dog.

This is Izzy. She’s my little sweetheart. I put off getting a dog for so long, and now I can’t imagine life without her. None of us can. My whole family is smitten with her. Enough about Izzy, clearly this post is just a poor attempt to post pictures of her. 🙂 However I do like to make her healthy, wholesome treats. These dog biscuits were made just from baby food and they were so easy. I figured if baby food was good enough for a baby, it was good enough for my Iz.

Nourishing Face Cream Using Essential Oils

February 27, 2016 by Denise 6 Comments

This nourishing face cream is so easy to make and uses essential oils and other healthy ingredients to nourish your skin.
For about six months I had a little growth on my face that never would go away. I bit the bullet and went to a dermatologist and he took care of it but when it was biopsied, it came back as cancerous. I was truly shocked! It’s nothing to worry about but I’m vowing to take better care of my skin. For me it’s about using natural products, eating nutrient dense foods and of course now always wearing sun screen. I’m starting with making my own nourishing face cream. I had all the necessary ingredients and two of my favorite essential oil books so I thought I’d give it a try. It was so easy to make and I really like the feel of it on my face, so I had to share it with you.

Herbal Bath Tea Jars

February 19, 2016 by Denise 2 Comments

Herbal bath tea jars are both beautiful and useful. Give as a gift or use for yourself and take a relaxing bath.

I don’t know if I have told you, but my sister and I used to have an herbal gift shop. It was so much fun. I preferred the medicinal side of herbs and my sister liked the gardening and crafting aspect of herbs. We had many wonderful products in our store like Votive candles, Thymes bath and body products and beautiful wreaths from Shields Herb Farm. Good stuff, good times. Anyway, this herbal bath tea jar is from one of the classes my sister gave at the shop. I always thought they were so pretty and because I love to take a bath, I made a few for myself today. (By the way, my sister has some awesome projects on her blog and you can check it out at Gardenmatter.com.)
