I'm sure you've heard how important it is to wash your fruits and vegetables. Especially now with all the crud going around.

Some things that may be found on your produce: Chemicals and pesticides. Even ...
Wellness Tips From A Semi-Crunchy Mama
I'm a firm believer that it is never to late to start a new, healthy habit. The current crisis is no different.

I can't make your hair this magical red color like Parker's but I can make it silky smooth and healthier! You know I love a good essential oil DIY. Especially when I can ditch a chemical laden product (or 2) in the process! We use this as a detangler, hair nourisher, growth enabler, oh and did I mention it keeps the bugs away?! Perfect for preschool and elementary aged kids! If you don't need the detanger, omit the conditioner, and add a teaspoon of sea salt for perfect beach hair. Since we ...
