🇬🇧&🇳🇴This tutorial is about my recent discovery -self made dryer balls. I've heard of them before, but never gave them a try. To be honest I was happy with my laundry soft and fresh from the dryer. The dryer balls however makes the towels even softer and fluffier and gives the laundry a nice, all natural scent if you like to use a few drops of essential oils on your dryer balls. Some years ago I read the list of ingredients on the fabric softener. That was quite enlightening! Now that I know about the chemicals that get added to the laundry with the commercial fabric softener, there is no way I'll use a fabric softener ever again. For my laundry I'm already using thieves laundry detergent by young living , my own homemade laundry soap ...
Homemade spicy hummus – free recipe
🇬🇧🇳🇴Happy wednesday and happy spring 💚🌱 Today I've been out on a hike with one of my best hiking buddies 💚 this time we enjoyed spring weather in the near by woods and along the local river. The spring flowers are just starting to peek out and the birds are "all over" singing and whistling. I'm feeling like I fall in love with nature all over again each time I take a walk or go on a hike. Springtime and the sunny, yet a little bit cold air, invited us to bring lunch and have picnic in the woods - which brings me to today's recipe. I brought home baked bread and homemade spicy hummus as bread spread - topped with finely chopped celery and pumpkin seeds. I love this spicy hummus on freshly baked bread - and thought maybe you would like ...
Diy healing balm for glowing skin
Happy Friday! Today I'm off to the mountains for a skiing weekend with wonderful friends. Probably last skiing this winter as we all hope for a little more spring in the air now. Nevertheless I'm looking forward to some winter skiing fun and great outdoor activities with friends. If you are familiar with winter, skiing, specifically downhill skiing and dry indoor winter air you probably know this can be really tough on your skin - so today's post is all about a wonderful homemade skin salve.

Keep Your wooden cuttingboard fresh and clean. All natural.
A little Hello from my kitchen today and some all natural cleaning solutions. My favorite kitchen tool has to be my wood cutting board – it gets a workout every day for almost every meal. I even use my wooden cutting boards to serve bread and cheese and spread for lunch or bread slices for soups. To keep a classic wood cutting board in good shape, here’s how you should clean and care for it in a all natural toxic free way. STEP 1: CLEANMostly it's ok to just wipe the cutting board clean with a damp cloth - no soap or cleaning products needed. I tend to being sceptical to use soap or toxic cleaners on my cutting board ... really! It's the place I cut the food I eat - I don't want any harmful stuff here. When a quick wipe won’t cut it, bust ...
Magical full moon tea
With the full moon here (and Yes, super moon too) just these days, (on January 21st to be precise) I thought I'd share with you a recipe for full moon tea - just for fun. All people and the energy in nature are affected by the moon - either they know it or not. Some of us have trouble sleeping during full moon, some are more emotional..... in previous times people were much more aware of the moon and how it affected the nature, animals, the seeds and plants. I recommend reading more about the moon and it's energy to better understand. Making full moon tea is a fun way to make herbal iced tea and take a deep breath a second to rewind and enjoy the beautiful moon. With the moon being a feminine energy, this is a method to use if ...

Yummy wheat bran pancakes
Friday and time for some relaxing and time together. As a mom of teenagers and young adults life is busy and time spent together might be short as they all have busy schedules. Never the less I realise time is precious and I feel thankful and happy every time we are gathering around the table, taking some time just to be, eat, and be together. Also as a mother of grown up kids I have the pleasure of observing and being a part of their creative journey and their everyday. Today my Sol had this genius idea she turned into an awesome recipe for a fast, yummy, healthy treat. She has always been the baker, the queen of cake making, cake pops and cupcakes... gathering the family around the table and turning even the most ordinary day into a ...
