HAVE WEDDING WILL TRAVEL !

Once upon a time,
                                                                                                                                                               We had a couple who wanted to get married.    Yet every time they started to make plans,            life interrupted.    Children !      Family !     And  a bought with Cancer !           

   Still ,  they remained faithful to one another, and  stood stronger than ever, together !  
Money being tight for all these reasons . Time, now so  precious.  They decided they wanted to just do it.

So, we decided to help them create there wedding .
With out the big wallet.

She wanted a CAMO WEDDING.
So, we did our best to give her what she wanted , with out spending the money they didn't have.
here is what it looked like.  We will post how we did it, and what we spent , next story,  for those curious.

 Introducing, the happy couple .                                               




 The lovely daughter.

Cake.
                                                                  
The wedding party.

Hope you enjoy, we believe they did.   T

HOMEMADE !

A simple way to whiten your teeth.
Baking soda and lemon juice. Just mix up a paste and brush on . leave 3or 4 min. each time (that's all I can stand) BUT , it will clean your teeth. Only use to whiten, then return back to regular tooth brushing. T

THE SUSTAINABLE KITCHEN .

We have been learning how to eliminate the need to depend on  our grocery store for the items we use by learning how to make as much as we can  ourselves. We started with the simple , small things, and  we will be sharing,  to help you and your kitchen also , become a SUSTAINABLE KITCHEN .    We are looking to get back to the basics, and rid ourselves of all the manufactured  unnecessary  processing and additives .  WAIT !      DON'T ROLL YOUR EYES !    THIS IS NOT HARD OR TIME CONSUMING.  Just relax !   The things we learned were shockingly easy.... For instance,

Did you know ?

If you buy reg. sugar and a jar of molasses,  you now have 3 kinds of sugar !
Yup! to get brown sugar and dark brown sugar , all you have to do is mix white sugar with the molasses. The more molasses the darker the sugar.   AND IT'S FRESH !   Any time you want it.   And you just cut out two items you now don't have to buy, and you don't have to pay for the processing and packaging any more.   SEE !        You just saved time, money and it is fresh and easy.

So many things we buy and don't think about.     I find it much easier on me and my pocket book, to think, can I make that ?         Here is another.

Did you know ?

Cream of tartar and baking soda = Baking Powder.
1/2 tsp cream of tartar. plus,1/2 tsp baking soda  will give you 1 teaspoon (tsp) baking powder.

We will be sharing as many as we can.         We hope you find it interesting. T

Homemade .

This week I'd like to talk about how to get your dishes to sparkle after washing. This can be used in the sink or in the dish washer. SIMPLY ADD DISTILLED WHITE VENIGAR TO THE RINSE WATER. Dishes will come out squeaky clean and sparkle. And it helps deodorize the drain. T

Home Made ! House hold cleaner.

As promised , here is  another Home Made house hold recipe.
This is a general purpose cleaner. I use it to clean the shower, sinks, counters, faucets. What ever needs  cleaning. You just spray it on, wait a few minutes , and wipe off with damp cloth. Works very well on the everyday things we need to constantly be wiping down and cleaning. Here is the simple and easy recipe.

General purpose house hold spray cleaner.
                         
                              1 cup water
                              1 cup white vinegar
                              1 cup dish soap,   

  Mix together in spray bottle. Spray on ,wait few minutes, wipe off with damp cloth. The soap cuts the grease and dirt, the vinegar makes it shine and the water raises it all up so the damp cloth can remove it.                 Hope you try it ! T
