    Loving On Your Plants: WINTER EDITION

    Winter is in full effect and I’m not going to pretend to like it but I’m here for the educational value. Let’s talk plant care in the winter… it’s important! We want to love on our plant babies – especially those that are working hard to purify the air in our homes and winter time allows us the time to pour into them more as our lives slow down.

    Making Memories in the kitchen with Junk-Free Ingredients!

My children love to help out in the kitchen, and I think that baking your own sweet treat is a wonderful way to build their confidence and also to let them be involved in the making…
