Essential Oil Blend For Menstrual Cramps

Image
I confess that I'm WAY past the childbearing years but our daughters are in that time of life. I do remember having menstrual pain and taking meds for relief but I wished I had a more natural way to help me. My daughter's time of the month is excruciatingly painful and it really keeps her down from living a fulfilled life. So I did a little research to try and help her and found this EO blend that she could rub on her abdomen. Just maybe it would help. Sure enough, she said it cut the time she was in pain by half. I thought that was good news and had to share it with those that may need some help. Here are some of  the oils that help with menstrual cramps: Cinnamon Oil Clove oil Lavender oil Rose Oil Let's take a closer look at why these oils are a benefit. CINNAMON OIL - Cinnamon is already known as an effective, anti-inflammatory spice. So, it’s no surprise that cinnamon oil also fights inflammation and reduces menstrual pain.  In fact, a 2013 study looked at the effect

Let's Celebrate National Panini Month with some Recipes

Image
Oh, the panini. So simple and delicious. The perfect combination of bread, cheese, and meats grilled to perfection. Is there anything better? National Panini Month is the perfect time to celebrate the hot, melty sandwich on a beautiful August day.  In honor of National Panini Month, let’s take a closer look at the panini.  What is a Panini? A panini is a sandwich made with Italian bread that is grilled or toasted. The bread is usually sliced relatively thin, which helps it to get nice and crispy when it’s grilled. Paninis can be made with a variety of different meats, cheeses, and veggies, meaning that there’s a panini out there for everyone! A panini tastes great with ciabatta, rosetta, and baguette bread. Paninis can be made from a variety of options. Paninis are especially good when pressed flat in a “panini press.” They resemble waffle irons, only with flat plates. A panini press is a versatile device. You can use it to make French toast, grilled cheese sandwiches, pita chips, omel

Cathy's Review of Smart Juice Organic Super Fruit 7

Image
  As I was hunting for some juice, I came across this interesting bottle of Smart Juice Organic Super Fruit 7 of 100% juice, not from concentrate at Lidl's for $3.85. The juices are pomegranate, grape, strawberry, tart cherry, fig, mulberry, and cranberry. The bottle is 33.8 fl oz with calories for an 8oz serving of 130. My thoughts: I am a juice lover and I loved this juice. It is not tart but rich in flavor with a deep rich color. You can dilute it with water or sparkling water/soda if you want a fizzy sensation. I hope you try it. I will buy it again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keep it Sassy,  Cathy 🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹 Thank you for reading our blog post.

August 2023 Dinner Meal Plan + Desserts

Image
  I have started a new project called the August 2023 Dinner Meal Plan. I'm a planner especially when it comes to weekly dinners. I don't like to grocery shop so the Walmart Grocery Pickup and Delivery service is a Godsend.  I sell the plan, for a super low price, in my Etsy shop  and it gives you four weekly menus, 28 dinner recipes, and 4 dessert recipes. Here's an example of a weekly menu... Here's an example of a recipe... There are a variety of recipes from 30 minutes or less to slow-cooked meals. I try and use seasonal fruits and vegetables in the recipes. That saves us money, and who doesn't like to save money? 💰 This is a digital download and you can either download it onto your tablet/computer for easy access or print it out and do what I do and put them in a binder. I print 2-sided copies and slip them in a sheet protector. ⮛ CLICK LINK BELOW ⮛ ➣➣ August 2023 Monthly Menu with 28 Dinner Recipes and 4 Desserts ⮘⮘ I hope you give it a try and if you do, p
