No Matter What

It's Thursday already, but I know I won't be back to blogging until next week.  We had a death in the family this week. I look forward to getting back on track with being my organic self, but for right now I need to make sure everyone is taking care of.

If you're a new follower please leave your link. I will follow back.

Remember no matter what happens in life. You have to find something to smile about.
What makes you smile?

Dash of What?




I'm embarrass to  admit but I use to love love and I do mean love salt.  I couldn't remember a time when I wouldn't cover my food with salt and not just a sprinkle. We all know that too much salt is unhealthy. I have tried and fail many of times to control how much salt I use in my cooking and on my plate.  It was only after I started using Mrs. Dash salt free seasoning blend that I was able to break away from the salt cravings.  I still use salt when I cook but only a sprinkle. If I'm making something just for me I won't use salt at all.  Just the Mrs. Dash seasoning.  I really don't miss it. It doesn't seem the family notices that I'm using less salt in the food. I will admit that sometimes the craving for salt comes  around but I'm able too deal with it better.

Is salt the number one seasoning in your home? If not what do you use?

Wednesday Snack

I love this! It's roasted seaweed. I would have never imagine that I would enjoy this, but I do.  So does my older kids. Hubby won't give it a try, but that's okay. After trying it from the regular store for 99 cents.  I bought a box of it at Costco. I think it was either $7.99 or $9.99. Either way it's cheaper for me to buy it in bulk than from the regular grocery store. The only thing is doesn't last too long at home with everyone (minus hubby) grabbing one. Have you ever tried it?

Hello!

Yea my first post! This blog is about my journey in being organic.  Sometimes it's easy and sometimes it's difficult breaking bad habits.  I have a long way to go but I'm proud of how far I've come. I believe it's easier when it's not force but sometimes I need a push in the right direction.  So welcome to my little world as I work on being the best that I can be for me.
