    Turmeric and Bonafide Provisions bone broth goodness

    Cold and flu season has attacked my household pretty bad this year. Nolan started school and has brought home every single cold and bug you can think of. While I am happy that with each one, it builds our immune systems a little more, I am so over being sick! Last weekend I visited my sister and she cooked a huge crockpot turmeric and bone broth soup to help strengthen our bodies. Turmeric and bone broth are two things that everyone should have permanently stocked in their pantries. Turmeric is a healing spice with many health benefits. It can be used to help as a decongestant, liver detox, cancer preventive,…

    a Merry little non toxic Christmas

    sweater (on sale right now) | jeans | OTK boots (similar) | lip color | necklace* I cannot believe that it’s almost Christmas ya’ll! This year has really flown by for me. As I reflect on 2016, I find myself feeling so accomplished at all that I’ve learned. It is really important to me to take the time to educate myself and learn new things. I think that’s one of the best habits that we can have for ourselves. I devote a lot of time to learning new things about health and wellness and it makes me feel so much better about my life when I can live by the principles that…

    Happy Holidays with Minted

    I feel like this past year has been so amazing. So many great things have happened for our little family and it makes me excited as I reflect on 2016. We traveled a few places, spent lots of time with family, made new memories and welcomed a sweet little girl into our lives. As I sit down to address our Christmas cards from Minted, it warms my soul to the core. I haven’t had the easiest life and sometimes I feel like the weight of the world is on my shoulders. When I look at the pictures on our card, I am reminded at how blessed I really am. Making…

    Mama’s Magic Coffee

    Good mornin’, good mornin’ y’all! I don’t know about you but I have to start my day with a big ole cup of coffee. I’ve never been a coffee drinker but after I had Scarlet Reese something in my body just needed the perk. I’m breastfeeding so I just drink a cup a day but I savor that cup SO much y’all! I tried cold brew coffee and that’s the type that I really enjoy. The flavor to me is so much better than regular coffee and the nutritional benefits would have swayed me if the flavor didn’t. Cold-brewing is a style of coffee where the grounds soak on the countertop…

    Why you need a Joovy stroller

    I received this product in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. Read my disclaimer page for more information. We have used the same double stroller for almost three years and after seeing the wear and tear we caused, I decided it was time for an upgrade. I’ve been checking out the Joovy brand for quite some time now and when a collaboration came up, I knew this was the moment I was waiting for. Strollers, for me, are such a big deal and great investment because it’s what makes family outings with all the kids manageable. They have a place to rest their tired feet and I have…
