I hate being sick in the summer!! It’s the worst! I started fighting a cold Saturday night, prayed to make it through my first time singing in our church’s worship band on Sunday (God answered those prayers and I was blessed to be able to sing), and started really feeling it that afternoon as we [...]

by gidget food

food-related lovin’

by gidget food

My daughter has become quite the storyteller. Today we sat together over yogurt and “chatted”- mostly she just told me some nonsensical story full of very grown-up {and improperly used} phrases.

Whole Foods Giveaway and Natural Remedies Review

by gidget green & natural living

I’m always looking for ways to incorporate Eastern & Western medicine into my family’s health practices (that’s why I love my naturopathic doctor I’ll be seeing now as my primary doc).
