So I did a test yesterday. . . I can leave comments on my profile! What this means is that when we are posting in other groups/forums/blogs, etc, before leaving the area we were active in, grabbing the title and link of what we were doing and creating a comment from the list. This will tell ourselves where we were yesterday to check for any activity in response to it, and tell others where they ... » Continue Reading
A list of passages from Scripture, where various examples of health-related topics are mentioned: ******************** Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. Exodus 20:12 And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jeh... » Continue Reading
The discussion of which is safest to use in the kitchen, be it glass, plastic, silicon, steel, or wood, is apparently a very contested subject. Mainstream anti-bacterial teaching holds that plastic is safer than wood, that steel is safer than plastic, and wood is put at the bottom of the safety pile. Government foodsafe guidelines have either informed the knowledge of woodworkers out there, or t... » Continue Reading
Your soul, the part of you that thinks, feels, and processes, needs care just as much as your body does. Today, I'm talking about how you think about obstacles in the path of life. Many times, obstacles and rough patches, are an opportunity to discover your creativity! Take a moment to look back over your life, and list off all the times you overcame things others said you couldn't or wouldn't. V... » Continue Reading
Sometimes when I introduce myself online or in person as your Biblical Natural Health Coach, I'll tag onto the end of my short speel, "Don't worry! I won't make you go vegan!" This is because of a discussion I rarely ever see coming out of the vegan space, and I read magazines that sometimes push the vegan diet, with articles written by trainers, dieticians, nutritionists, sports coaches, and ot... » Continue Reading

Barnes & Noble stopped shipping to Canada, so while the workbook continues to be sold there, it is now available to Canadian Christians » Continue Reading
What do you do with soured milk? Make cheese!!! I typically make my own cheese salsa dip these days, but for some time now, I've been wanting to make a batch of wild-herbed ricotta. It even passed the taste test with my son, who isn't the easiest to please. My daughter's idea of a cheesecake made me think of adding one of my wild syrups to the cheese such as fir, chokecherry, saskatoon berry, or... » Continue Reading
Apparently, even in the world of natural health, you have your stalwarts who know what they know and refuse to entertain any change to what they know, and who get threatened enough to slander and lambaste anyone who questions it. The level of lambasting and slander by a so-called herbalist, reminded me of the medical terminology problem rearing it's head out there. Let me wrap this up now. You wi... » Continue Reading
Yes, this is another recipe blog post, but not before I rant a bit first! It turns out that dried Lamb's Quarters leaves don't burn very well or very fast. The flavour of the untreated ash is initially salty, then bitter, then salty again as it sits on the tongue.
