SIMPLE HOME MADE SHAMPOO / BODY WASH
I love this home made shampoo / body wash.
It is so easy and so moisturizing and best of all no chemicals and no itch just soft supple skin
Half cup any scent or if you wish no scent Dr. Bronner's liquid Castile soap
Third cup canned Coconut Milk
2 table spoons Aloe Vera either from the plant itself or a pure Aloe Vera organic gel
If your hair is on the drier side add a half teaspoon olive oil
I also added 2 tablespoons of organic Honey to it and my hair is soft and full of a great sheen.
Mix together and put into an empty bottle, each time you use it just reshake the mixture . It cost pennies to make per shampoo use and for me it is one of the best shampoo body washes that I have tried
The next shampoo recipe is really interesting I have not tried this yet but tou get a Yucca plant
You take a pieceof the root off
Then you shave it down w a potatoe peeler until you get to the white part of the plant then you smash that piece with a hammer , it will become soft then just put it under running water and there it will bubble up and you have a shampoo like I said I have not tried this yet but it is supposed to make your hair soft and shinny and full of volume . when I do I will let you know about it. I am looking for a Yucca plant as we speak
Thank you

Hello Everyone:
I was at a Celiac function that was held at the Abington Memorial Hospital
One of the vendors there Joan, from Joan's GF Great Bakes was running around saying you have to try our products. I always like to try new products so of course I did try it. She said to me this is going to be the best corn bread muffin you have ever tasted, she also gave me a sample of her English muffin, and her Multi Grain Muffin.
She was absolutely correct this was not just a great English Muffin or a Great Corn Muffin.
This tasted like a baker that had performed an artistry of delight in every bite that I had . I wass so sorry when it was gone.
Her products you will think they had gluten in them they are that good with these muffins you are not sacrificing anything
Her muffins are out of this world she thinks of everything they not only taste magnificent but they are actually really very good for you
They are Dairy free Soy Free and ready to eat just toast them and you will be amazed that these muffins taste as good as they do and best of all they have 2 grams of fiber in them and a lot of vitamins in them
Their website is www.gfgreatbakes.com, their address and telephone number is
Gf Great Bakes
90 East Merrick RD
FreePoint New York 11520

Their email address is www.gfgreatbakes.com
They do have some stores in the Pennsylvania area that carry their products, just go to their website and hit their store locator
I am going to see if I can get them into more stores in the Pa area

ERSATZ COFFEE ALTERNATIVE
03/02/2013
Hello Everyone:
I just found a company in Pennsylvania that has a coffee alternative that is really quite good for you and no caffeine in it and of course all natural and gluten free
The name of the company is Ersatz coffee they are located in Bellefonte PA
Their website is www.ersatzcoffee.com and they are giving away a free sample of their coffee
This is made out of rice, peas and chicory which might not sound appetizing but I tried it and it is really I think outstanding.
I love a cup of good coffee like Starbuck's in the afternoon but if I do this I am up all night
I received my free sample last week and tried it and was very sorry after it was all gone I wanted another cup it was delicious.
It tasted like Starbuck's French Roast coffee I would say even better then Starbuck's coffee but in the mornings I do need my cup of high blast Caffeine but this was very nice. I was not expecting to it to taste as good as it was . I thought well if I do not like it I did not spend anything so it really does not matter.
As soon as I tried it I was like I have got to get more of this I went immediately to their website and ordered it
This was my birthday present to myself not that it was expensive. It was not at all but with my husband being sick as he has been things are really tight so when he is feeling better we will celebrate my birthday
The coffee comes in a tea bag form all natural and I think you get 12 in a box and it cost $6.41 a box with free shipping in the United States
I am really impressed with this coffee they made a believer out of me and with coffee this is very hard to do I am as they say a coffee snob .
I know that when things get a little bit brighter in our house hold I am going to order a case of it to always have on hand it is that good As they say try it you will like it. You can not go wrong with something that taste this good and has so many good things in it. You get the good taste of a good cup of coffee with extra fiber to go with it to help benefit your body's needs without feeling hyped up from it
Thank you

THE HONEST COMPANY
02/13/2013
I just found this company that I love I do not work for them but I do love them. The name of the company is called The Honest Company it was founded by Jessica Alba and a friend of hers. They were looking for skin care products and cleaning that they could feel comfortable using in their home for themselves and their children that had no chemicals in them. This is skin care and cleaning products. They even have it that you can sample their products free of charge you just pay for shipping.
It can be for a Baby Bundle with Baby products or what they call the Family Essential Bundle.
The Family Essentials Bundle is a mixture of 5 different products that they have picked out I think it has a trial size of a Shampoo/ Body Wash a Conditioner trial size of a liquid soap, Laundry Detergent unscented and a Bathroom cleaner.
You try them out and if you like them then you let them know and they will send out to you 5 different products that you can change if you do no like the ones that they have chosen for that month. The cost is 35.95 a month plus shipping but you can just also just pick out one product to try out at a time also.
I have tried most of all the products and love all of them. They have just come out with organic cotton dish towels, organic dish brushes and also candles.
The products are all organic and they smell wonderful
I love the Shampoo/Body Wash it is the scent of like orange/vanila /lemon it is really a great fragrance.
The Website is www.honest.com
They are also great to deal with and very helpful I hope you love them as much as I do.
Thank yo u
