I have noticed an unfortunate trend in some of the blog comments related to my posts about the line of products. It seems as though a lot of people have given up on using the Morrocco Method hair care system because they did not like the results. Common complaints were, “my hair is so greasy,” “my hair looks gross,” “it is too complicated,” and “I gave up because the adjustment period is taking too long.” I get it. Believe it or not I had a few moments on my hair care journey where I wanted ... continue reading...
Affordable Mold Test? Yes, There Really Is One!
While this post has great information, you might want to take a look at my Mold Testing page on my new website Mold Help For You. There is a ton of great information there plus links to all the mold testing posts I have written. I unexpectedly became a “mold blogger” after I went through Moldageddon and shared my experience in this little corner of the world. As such, I get hundreds of questions a month related to mold. Try as I might, I just can’t respond to them all in a timely manner. ... continue reading...
Funfetti Cupcake Recipe (Gluten Free, Vegan)
Food allergies bite, especially around birthdays. While I cook most of what I eat from scratch and stick to a real food lifestyle, I do like to indulge in a little junk now and then. Typically my birthday is when I allow myself to have whatever the heck I want so long as it agrees with my system. The one thing I miss the most are cupcakes, specifically a funfetti cupcake. I love a good funfetti cupcake but haven’t had one in at least 7 years. With my birthday fast approaching I decided that I ... continue reading...
Coconut Oil for the Immune System
That time of year crept up on us again. You know what I am talking about. The time when “achoo,” “hack, hack, hack,” and “sniffle, snarf, snort” become background noise in our daily lives. With cooler weather comes the onslaught of germs. Cold, flues, and other viruses are out in full force. No matter how many times you wash your hands, it seems like some little buggy will invade your body, leaving all kinds of miserable side effects in its wake. What’s a body to do? It is hard to know ... continue reading...
Congestion Be Gone Shower Vapor Discs
So my idea of “indoor fun” with my daughter during the cold winter months might be a little unconventional. We do things like create recipes, make herbal remedies, and come up with cool products for our natural minded lifestyle. One of our recent rainy day projects stemmed from a conversation about snot. Kids love snot right? Maybe not IN their noses but snot is kind of cool in a gross way. Nasal or sinus congestion is the result of inflammation of the nasal passages or sinus ... continue reading...
Pumpkin Mousse – My Favorite Gluten Free Thanksgiving Dessert
Pumpkin Mousse - once my all time favorite dessert to make for Thanksgiving until my Double Layer Chocolate Whipped Pumpkin Mousse Pie was invented. As amazing as that pie is, it does take a bit of a time commitment. Sometimes we just don't have time am I right? My basic pumpkin mousse is a VERY close runner up to my pumpkin mousse pie. It is easy to make, DELICIOUS, and the perfect light ending to a typically heavy meal. You can enjoy this year round (I do) and play with the spices to make ... continue reading...

The Best Immune Boosting Lotion
In the hustle and bustle of life, you may find yourself struggling to remember to take all your immune boosting teas, tinctures, and tonics. I know I do sometimes.

Coconut Oil For Hair Loss
Hair loss happens. It is certainly normal to loose strands of hair every day, sometimes hundreds. These strands regrow as part of the normal growth and loss cycle. Typically, this is not a cause for concern, until it is. If you have ever been the victim of clumps of hair coming out throughout the day, you know how scary an experience this is. Are you tired of hair loss remedies that don't work? Did you know that there is a simple way to prevent hair loss and re-grow hair? I'm talking about ... continue reading...
11 Benefits of Eating Coconut During Pregnancy
In tropical countries all over the world, coconuts have long been praised as having fertility and pregnancy enhancing properties. In India, for example, a woman hoping to conceive will go to her priest for a special coconut. Thai babies receive, as their first solid food, three spoonfuls of soft coconut meat from their priests. A Balinese woman is forbidden to touch a coconut tree for fear she will drain its fertility into her own. Pregnant women from tropical countries consume large amounts of ... continue reading...
Quinoa Chocolate Cake Recipe
Who doesn't love a rich, chocolatey treat every now and then? I know I do! Long ago and far away I discovered that quinoa can be used as a replacement for flour in many cake recipes. Sure, it changes the texture a bit but not in a negative way. In fact, most people I have served this to don't notice the difference until I point it out. This quinoa chocolate cake is decadent to the umpteeth degree but without the guilt. As far as deserts go, this is by far one of the healthiest ... continue reading...
Coconut Oil For Bad Breath + Breath Mint Recipe
All I want for summer is halitosis….said no one ever. Who in their right mind wants bad breath? Sadly, bad breath happens. While it can occur for a variety of reasons (some health related and some food/beverage consumption related), the fact of the matter is most of us will experience bad breath or an unpleasant taste in our mouth at one time or another. Breath mints and chewing gum have always been the “go-to” breath refresher when you need to take care of business fast. But almost every ... continue reading...
