I love making my own skin products using essential oils. It's so much fun to make, I know it's all natural and toxin free and it smells divine. Win win. If I read up on the oils I want to use for each product I can make sure the essential oils will work wonders for my skin, health and wellness too. Today I'm sharing a wonderful DIY face serum with jojoba oil and essential oils. Perfect for grownup skin. This is so easy to make and will make your face glow. I love this serum because it leaves my skin smooth and soft and not greasy. I've used pure organic jojoba oil and frankincense, rose, lavender and carrot essential oils. You can of course use whatever essential oils you prefer and what works best for your skin. Here is why I chose ...
DIY dryer balls for the softest laundry – all natural and sustainable 💚
🇬🇧&🇳🇴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 ...
Vilter høstgryte
Det er høst og det er tid for de fineste rotgrønnsakene. Jeg er glad i rotgrønnsaker. De er billige, holdbare, smakfulle, fargerike, sunne ... det er så mye godt som kan lages av rotgrønnsaker. Idag vil jeg dele oppskrift på en fargerik og smakfull høstgryte. Det fine med gryteretter er at man ofte kan bruke de grønnsakene man har for hånden. Det går fint an å trikse og mikse med smaker, krydre, farger og ingredienser helt etter eget hode. Håper du blir inspirert. Vilter høstgryte Vegansk Til 6 pers 2-3 fedd hvitløk finhakket 1 løk hakket 1 rød løk hakket 1 eple i biter 2 gulrøtter i biter 1/4 sellerirot i biter 1/4 kålrot i biter 1 gul bete i biter 1 rødbet i biter 3-4 poteter i biter 1/2 purre i tynne ...
Love Nature
This post is quite spontaneous. Today I've been on a road trip with a friend of mine and while driving trough the beautiful landscapes, stopping here and there to take a closer look, take photos or find some geocaches I've been contemplating about how much this beautiful Mother Nature means to me. As my friend is a passionate geocacher (you can go see what this hobby is all about at www.geocaching.com ) she'll drag me out at least every once a week to go on road trips, walk in the forest, go to some lake, climb trees, go to some islands, walk in the park or climb mountains to find these little boxes with a note pad inside to write our name to tell "whoever" we were there and enjoyed the journey. So, thanks to my friend, the last couple ...
