Why Our Family Uses a Subpod Compost
Did you know that composting is actually really easy once you get the vehicle right?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Ya know what I’m referring too, what you keep the scraps and things in? I tried all the things and almost gave up composting until I found Subpod. It’s an easy garden compost bin that keeps the smell at bay and is a great place to breed earthworms within your bed! Composting… what’s the big deal? Composting enriches soil, helping retain moisture and suppress plant diseases and pests.

Cheeky Clean Cream Blush
I didn’t think that I’d be a fan of Beautycounter’s new Cheeky Clean Cream Blushes… but WOW they’ve exceeded my expectations! The Cheeky Clean Cream Blushes are versatile, multitasking, and mistake-proof. Use it on your cheeks and (bonus!) use it on your lips too!

Unfortunately, over the last 50 years the quality of food has become less nutrient dense and more processed, “quick and easy.” I have seen a major positive change take place in my life JUST by focusing on the foods that I eat being clean.
