What are your daily habits? Ah, this is a fun one for me, as I am habitual by nature! This list is not all encompassing. You would be reading for days if it was! Here are a few of my daily highlights: Hot lemon-salt water first thing in the morning to alkalize and kick start …
For years, I experienced numerous medical "complications". Think autoimmune, without the official title. About once a year, when the hives, swollen face, fatigue, and other symptoms became too much for me to handle, I would walk into my primary care physician's office with a list of issues, only for him to smirk at my concerns, …
For those who are following my story... I'm still here. & I'm still sober. 84 days in a row alcohol free, to be exact. Or, twelve weeks. It's like "baby age". We count by days, then by weeks, eventually by months, then one day we stop counting all together and have to reach back in …
You didn't know National Kombucha Day was a thing? Yeah, me neither. That is, until my oldest daughter texted me this morning.

Her lawn chair was parked away from all of the other parents and she seemed …
I am a very superstitious person. Find a penny heads up, make a wish and pocket it. Tails up, hand it off to someone else to make the wish. Right palm itching means you're coming into money. A broom falling means company will soon be coming to visit. 11:11, make a wish. Spill salt? Better …
My body is a machine, which runs on premium. Apparently, my steady intake of Wild Turkey, cheap White Sangria, pizza and movie theater popcorn (with extra butter, of course) this Fourth of July weekend was not a premium type of fuel. I found that out this afternoon while attempting to get back into my fitness …
I am checking out for this Memorial Day weekend for some much needed R&R with the family. Don't worry, I will have some delicious camping recipes and I'm certain, some funny family stories to share on my return back to blogland. But first, I wanted to give a kombucha update - It failed. Five days …
