I just love getting new ideas from Pinterest! When I saw this one, I knew I had to try it. You can find the original recipe here. I made up a batch a while back and used it all up. So when I made up a new batch this time, I took a picture. These cleansing pads are so easy to make and my son loves using them. My daughter and I like to use the oil cleansing method to wash our faces, but I … [Read more...]

The Easiest Way to Scrub Your Tub or Shower!
I saw this idea the other day and decided to give it a try. Scrubbing our shower has always been a hard task.

Lovely! Well, not any more! Someone had the brilliant idea of using a dishwand … [Read more...]

Trim Healthy Mama {Homemade Gluten-Free, Low-Carb Wrap – “S”}
Here is another Trim Healthy Mama friendly recipe for you to try! I found a recipe online and tweaked it a bit. It turned out great! Because of the higher fat content of these wraps, they are considered an "S". I know Serene and Pearl recommend to stay at 5 grams or under for "E" and "Fuel Pull" meals. I tried replacing 1 T. of flax meal with 1 T. oat fiber to reduce the fat a bit more, but … [Read more...]
The BEST Brown Rice
As I have moved to trying to cook more healthy, one of the switches I made was to using brown rice instead of white rice. I always cooked brown rice on the stove, and it always seemed that the rice just didn't quite get done.
