Now that Memorial Day is here. I am also thinking about and celebrating the real reason for Memorial Day, those who serve in the military. I am very grateful to them.

Hi! This week I’ve posted on how to reduce your electricity bill by eliminating “standby energy vampires” in your home, and thereby reduce fossil fuel usage that pollutes our air and water.

I’m also hosting a giveaway for SongCroft Naturals skincare products, which are organic and handmade on a permaculture farm. Their products are safe enough to eat, and so effective too.

Thanks for hosting!

Hi Sarah (and readers!),

I left my recipe for sauerkraut brownies. Yep, you read that right. It’s a twist on the traditional German sauerkraut chocolate cake. They’re grain-free, gluten-free and sugar-free.

P.S You don’t taste the sauerkraut – it’s just there to give a lovely moist texture!

I shared my recipe for Oatmeal Cookies Sweetened with Coconut Palm Sugar and Stevia. These cookies are really moist and have lots of flavor and texture. You can make them with chocolate chips and dried cherries or with raisins and nuts- they taste great either way.
This recipe was the first that I converted to healthier sweeteners and I share some of my findings about using stevia and coconut sugar.

Can I simply just say what a comfort to discover a person that actually understands what they’re talking about on the net. You actually know how to bring an issue to light and make it important. More and more people need to read this and understand this side of the story. I was surprised that you’re
not more popular given that you surely have
the gift.
