Adulting 101 – What’s Cooking?
I've made an observation that just amazes me... cooking is a practical skill that has been discarded along the wayside. It's not just teens who have forgotten the benefits of cooking nutritious meals at home. I was sitting by some ladies this weekend who were chatting away about how they "eat out" 3-4 times a… Continue reading Adulting 101 – What’s Cooking?
#bethelight – Day 104
Today I am going to brag about how others spread the light today. To be honest... I have no idea if I did something kind today. I did help at school. I did run a rehearsal.

Today is full of great intentions. Sometimes intentions are where kindness begins. Today I intend on finding people to serve. I really don't have any bright ideas. I am just looking to make someone else's life a little better.

Eating Well
I love when I succeed in eating well… now… to get my body to recognize I am feeding it good fuel!
Resigning as the General Manager of the Universe
It’s been a great week for eating! I feel successful, especially with how busy my life has been. I really should resign as the general manager of the universe. LOL.
I’ve been beginning every day with 32 oz warm water, 2 Tbs apple Cider Vinegar, a dash of pink salt, and 2 Tbs lemon juice 30 minutes before eating anything else. I also take 1 capsule of black seed oil at the same time.
Breakfasts were nearly all the same… Sautes onions, mushrooms, and spinach and a smoothie made from 1/2 a banana, 1/2 c kefir, 2 Tbs sugar-free peanut butter, 1 in ginger root, 1 tsp dandelion root powder, and 1 c assorted berries.

For lunch I ate a salad… every day.

Agency is the power to think, to choose, and to act for ourselves. Agency presents endless possibilities and opportunities. Attached to these possibilities and opportunities is… Continue reading Blessing or Burden
