Life is too short to not live with a heart of HOPE, with the ability to find laughter and joy through the cobwebs of life.
My hope in sharing here, is that you are inspired, you learn, you heal, and you explore new and exciting adventures, and possibly laugh from time to time. My focus: small homesteading, herbalism, sewing, and other skills my husband and I incorporate into meeting our needs in using available resources on hand, procure and are blessed with.
I will be sharing truths of my life, my faith, my own health journey, herbal healing, food preservation and preparation, gardening journey, sewing as well as textile art with various mediums, and much more.
If you desire to support this channel, I do have a wish list on Amazon for items to benefit the channel.

Time to Declutter, Downsize, Reorganize bottom of Hutch. #cleaning #potpourrioflife #healing
Here is another declutter, downsize, organizational video, as I work on the base unit of my hutch. Taking time to decide what I know I will use, and what I might like but can live without. I'm very pleased in letting go of what I honestly believe I will not miss.
Declutter, or choosing to let-go, is not always easy. It is also a method in which we can declutter our mind from things that are not beneficial to our emotional and creative well-being. For me, letting go, is a form of healing.
"Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." Colossians 3:15-17
"For I am NOT ashamed of the Gospel" Romans 1:16
May you be blessed with encouragement, good health, happiness and joy.

When you have a reaction to a supplement, a medication, a food item, it is important to understand and jot down the symptoms, more so if it is prescribed by your physician so that they can make an adjustment or provide you with some wisdom.

Thanksgiving tends to have lots of carbs, so I thought it would be a good idea to make a crustless pumpkin pie. A very unique recipe, adding in a few ingredients I have not used in the past.

It turned out well, yet my dairy fre...
