Welcome!

The whole idea of this blog is to offer natural solutions to every day uses. Having a family and knowing what it means to save a little money every where we can, we hope to be able to offer cost saving tips as well. We use essential oils, herbs, and other natural solutions to cure our ailments. Having a little ones around the house has made us think more about what we are using to clean with. We have been more into all natural everything from cleaning supplies, facial cleansers, food, and the list continues the more we research different medical issues that our family and friends have and how it can or could be avoided and hopefully cured. We hope that the things that we write about help someone else as the medical issues in our day and time just keep getting worse.

Is Your Water Safe?


I was watching the Dr. Oz show a couple weeks ago and this show about water pollutants has just stuck with me. I knew I didn't like drinking tap water at some places but don't mind it at others. I was just under the impression that it was just me because everyone should have to follow the same regulations for cleaning the water from contaminants. Well, in a way, I was wrong!

There was an article in the NY Times about the safety of water. They even have a map of your state and utility showing how many violations there are in your water. These pollutants can make you sick and/or rot your teeth. You can check out the map at www.nytimes.com/toxicwaters. There are also a couple articles on this issue that will just blow you away!

I have since started buying water from the grocery store and reusing the jugs to refill the next time I go to the store or filling them at my mother-in-laws as her tap water has no violations but ours has 45 violations. I now like drinking water which I have never enjoyed since I thought it was just my taste buds and now know what clean water tastes like.
