Please note that I wrote this article when I was living in my moldy house. My approach to how to treat a spider bite at home is still the same but I am no longer living in the midst of a spider infestation. Thank goodness. On with the original article... Spiders in my bed is nothing new. In fact, it is rather commonplace. I have been startled awake by something creeping up my leg more times than I care to remember. I have been bit by wolf spiders plenty of times. I know – you shake your ... continue reading...

Mycotoxins in Food YOU Eat
Apparently I hit a nerve. Remember that post I wrote about coconut oil not necessarily being safe to consume if you have been a victim of mold exposure? Well, I’m about to hit another nerve folks. Take a seat please… this has to do with mycotoxins in food you eat. Mold spores are everywhere. They basically are unavoidable. Even living in a bubble wouldn’t keep you safe. Some spore would sneak in for sure. So it stands to reason that our food supply is not immune to mold spores and the ... continue reading...
Gluten Free/Grain Free Bean Pie Recipe
Ever heard of a Bean Pie? Me neither. At least not until I met Rasta Daddy. My first bite of bean pie was in 2003. I will NEVER forget it. I was hooked before I even finished chewing that first bite. The bean pie dates to the 1930s, when the founder of the Nation of Islam, Elijah Muhammad, told his followers to eschew pork and unhealthy starches like corn bread and sweet potatoes and adhere to a healthful diet, with a particular focus on the navy bean. Muslims created the bean pie in part ... continue reading...

Toxic Mold Resources
My toxic mold journey has been dominated by research. Lots and lots and lots of research. I feel like all I do is read and analyze and ask questions. Honestly, it never ends. However, through my travels, I have been able to weed out those books, websites, and resources that are VERY helpful from those that only cause more confusion. Trust me - there are more totally not-helpful resources out there than there are helpful ones. Today I am sharing those resources that really helped me ... continue reading...

10 Herbs For Breast Enhancement
We must, we must, increase our bust! I remember hearing that little ditty as a child. I think I read it in a book or something. I can’t remember but that one simple phrase sure stuck with me. Women are absolutely inundated with advertisements regarding breast size. There is no size that is “just right.” Smaller breasted women are encouraged to seek out options for breast enlargement. Larger chested women are told to flaunt what they have but when they do, they are chastised for it. It’s ... continue reading...

How To Get Rid Of Silverfish For Good
Silverfish. No, not a fish that is silver. The other kind. The insect variety. I bet you want to know how to get rid of silverfish for good. Annoying little critters that scamper out of the pages of your favorite book, giving you a bit of a scare. They also like warm places such as beds, ovens, clothes dryers, and fireplaces. They live on dry starchy “pantry” foods as well as certain glues (most commonly the ones used in book bindings). While they are harmless, they certainly are annoying, ... continue reading...
