Food with integrity
I have noticed that I am writing about food a lot lately. Hopefully I'm still interesting! I spend a lot of time learning about natural alternatives to medicine, natural foods, natural this, natural that. I wash my hair without shampoo and I wash my face with olive oil. I had to learn that somewhere! I … Continue reading Food with integrity
Saying grace
Growing up, food came from the grocery store to home, where mom cooked it, and we ate it. That was the life cycle of food. Sometimes food came from a box, a bag, or a jar. Food had commercials on TV. Food was pizza day at school (triangle or circle pizza only... rectangle pizza was … Continue reading Saying grace
Quick recap!
My apologies for disappearing for a while. I am recovering from the joy that is adrenal fatigue! Basically I allowed my body to get so stressed that she is now in a state of constant stress and fatigue, and I'm tired all the time if I don't sleep enough and take good care of myself. … Continue reading Quick recap!
Minimizing my student debt
Being a minimalist is great for budgeting. I can afford to spend ridiculous amounts on organic hippie food because I don't care about how many pairs of pants I own. (Oversimplification, I admit). Another thing I can afford to do is pay down my student debt faster than I would normally be able to. I … Continue reading Minimizing my student debt

At least until it starts raining 🙂 I have been thinking a lot about making a bucket list lately, so I wanted to share … Continue reading Bucket list
A giveaway with a twist
I received this email in my inbox this morning: We all know that Monsanto doesn’t want you to know which foods contain genetically modified ingredients (almost 80 percent of all processed foods), and which don’t. We also know that Monsanto doesn’t want us to know how genetically modified organisms (GMOs) affect our health, which is … Continue reading A giveaway with a twist
Forgiving myself and moving on
Two important points to make at the top of the post: Forgiveness is like decluttering for your soul. This is my last post centered around my divorce/marriage, I promise. I have been talking about my divorce a lot lately, and I'm sorry for being a broken record. This is the last one with a divorce … Continue reading Forgiving myself and moving on
Retail therapy
For many people, indulging in a little retail therapy helps them to feel better when they are sad or anxious. If these people are going into debt for this "therapy," that's obviously not healthy, but if you feel like treating yourself to a pair of shoes and that will honestly cheer you up and you … Continue reading Retail therapy
Subtract stuff, add questions
The key element of minimalism is not (for me, at least) to have as little stuff as possible. It's to have as much time as possible for more important things. Minimalism or simple living is about priority, not possessions. Since I stopped being so concerned with buying new stuff for the sake of having cool … Continue reading Subtract stuff, add questions
