    Peyton and I are in the Chicago area at least every other month. But I don’t want to invest in an I-Pass because I don’t need it in Minnesota.

Care for Your Delicates with Eucalan

Eucalan Delicate Laundry Soap

Now that Peyton is getting older, I find she's gravitating towards clothes that require a little extra TLC in the laundry room.  Some of her favorite outfits are sweater dresses.  And that means I cannot just toss them in the laundry with all our other clothes. They need a little more care. Eucalan is a non-toxic, eco-friendly delicate wash detergent I can use on Peyton's favorite sweater dresses. Eucalan is perfect for washing all your delicates, even baby clothes. I like to use it on ...

Teacher’s Survival Kit

Reidea Light Choices

As many of you know, Peyton's in 1st grade. We've dealt with a lot of illnesses this year. We've had 2 rounds of strep throat, several colds, a stomach virus and the school had a head lice outbreak! Thankfully we were spared the head lice. But with all those illnesses it made me think of things her teacher could do to help promote a healthy environment. Immediately, I thought of essential oils. I use them all the time, at home, at work, in the car, away on vacation. I am a firm believer that ...
