Thank you to True Leaf Market for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. Last spring, I read an article about how beneficial it was to feed your backyard chickens sprouts. After reading this article, I was inspired to plant a sprout garden in our chickens run so our chickens could have access to fresh nutritional greens.  If you missed my post, you may read it here. I knew VERY LITTLE about sprouts. I did some research and that lead me to a company Read more [...]

I am now back to work full time (until I go on maternity leave in 9 weeks). As many of you know, my husband is a farmer, so he generally gets home fairly late between 7-7:30. I like to have supper ready to go when he gets home. I get off work, pick up our daughter at daycare, come home, clean out our bags from that day and ready them for the next day, pick out clothes for the next day, etc. In that same time I need to be thinking about supper and/or getting supper ready. I love meals that are Read more [...]

This is a sponsored post. Insomnia – the one monster that won’t give a fly who or where you are. Trust me; if by any chance you happen to have never experienced this, you need to make a sacrificial offering to whatever gods you pray to. People nowadays find it pretty hard to fall asleep, especially as they age and fast approach the Jubilee mark. These are ‘post-menopause’ where one starts struggling with most health conditions. Nevertheless, that should not worry you anymore. Certain Read more [...]

I received product in exchange for this post.  All opinions are my own. Life is funny.  When I was growing up, my only requirement for a future husband was that he could NOT be a farmer.  Well.... someone up above has quite the sense of humor.  Here I am celebrating our 15 year anniversary this September with my husband.  Who IS a farmer!  After meeting him back in 2001, my heart changed and I slowly began to picture my life on a farm.  Turns out, it's WONDERFUL!  Truly a great place to Read more [...]

Thank you to Pure Food for providing me with product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions are my own.  I mentioned in a previous post that my family has made the dietary switch to eating a whole food plant based vegan diet. My husband expressed a huge concern about protein when we first switched. I had read so much I wasn't much concerned about getting the daily allowance of protein for kids, men and women on this diet. One thing I hadn't considered was the fact that not only was I working Read more [...]

Thank you to E-Blox for providing me with a product to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are my own. A few months ago, I had to chance to review a circuit builder kit from E-Blox  (here's my review in case you missed it).  I have to say, my kids still regularly play with this set and have actually started figuring a few things about how circuits work on their own.  So when I was offered one of the new 'stories' from E-Blox, I knew it would be a hit with my girls! What's unique about Read more [...]
