I made this porridge for breakfast this morning. I really liked it! Also, it was very fast to make. And it kept my energy on an even keel all morning. I’ll definitely make it again. Shredded coconut, chia, flax, and hemp seeds make the base of this Paleo-friendly breakfast bowl, which has twice the fiber of regular oatmeal! Source: Paleo Coconut Porridge Recipe

My failed no (sham)poo experiment, but the laundry soap is great!
I have been trying to make more of my own household and beauty products. As I was wandering around the internet, I found different descriptions of people who were washing their hair with only baking soda(at the roots) and vinegar as a rinse–which you rinse out. They loved it, so I thought I would give it a try. I think I only used the baking soda and vinegar for about six weeks. I did notice that my hair felt really soft when I did this, but it wasn’t shiny at all, and it was pretty frizzy. I was willing to stick with it, though and see what happened. Then last week, I went for a bike ride along Lake Michigan with my sister-in-law, Cindy.

Journey to the golden fleece course–2d yarn
I I am having a great time with this spinning/creativity class. This second part was called the road of trials. One of the things I really enjoyed was doing mind mapping to plan out the yarn. I have used mind mapping occasionally, usually for writing, but this was really fun, and the yarn turned out different than it would have if I just went for it, which I usually do.

The iris flower essence is used for freeing creativity, for inspiration and for feeling fully alive–pretty great, huh? So I decided to make 3 singles–one was a rainbow, one represented the rays of the sun and the other represented the storm clouds. The last 2 also showed the colors of the iris flower. The one with clouds has locks spun into it which look like clouds,
