Salad & Dressing Recipe

Alright! Yesterday I posted about how I was going to be making a salad from Paleo Leap but because I didn't have all the ingredients I was going to monkey with it and make my own version. I am happy to say that it was a success!

Here's what I did.

Me, Cooking, & Essential Oils

I've made gummies and tea in the past and have posted about it. This time it's brownies and an avocado salad. I love the flavor essential oils give to cooking and I actually find myself enjoying cooking. (I've never been a fan of cooking. Sometimes I day dream about having a personal chef :D)

Yesterday I took a gluten-free brownie mix and added 1 drop of both peppermint and spearmint oil. Having both of those oils in really rounded out the mint flavor. I wasn't sure what I was going to get when I did that but I've found I actually prefer the combo rather than just one sharp mint flavor. I'm glad I tried it and that it was a success.

Earlier today I saw a recipe with dark greens, avocado, almonds, and dried cranberries with a homemade dressing to put on it. (Here's the recipe from Paleo Leap: Cranberry Avocado Salad) It looks delicious. I don't have all the ingredients so I was going to make it with what I have and then monkey with an essential oils dressing... Maybe Citrus Fresh, olive oil, and such? I don't know what I'll eventually end up with, but just thinking about is making me hungry!

Hopefully it all turns out well and I can post a yummy, successful recipe for you all to try as well!

Spearmint Essential Oil

Spearmint (Mentha spicata), like many other herbs, has a history. It has been used by ancient cultures such as the Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks for various applications. Some of the uses were to freshen breath, as a digestive aid, to deter rats and mice from grain stores by spreading it around, colic, and more. It is still used in the Middle East as a tea after their meals. 

Twelve Oils of Ancient Scripture - Personal Testimony

My Mom and I have started using the Twelve Oils of Ancient Scripture at nights and have been sleeping like babies. I haven't slept this great in years! I would go to "sleep" and still be somewhat conscious throughout the night. After using this kit, when I go to sleep I go to sleep. I'd forgotten how good it felt to actually wake up from a deep, lights out, sleep. ^^

Ginger "Key Lime Pie" Gummies Recipe

Enjoy!

P.S. One could even substitute the ginger bits for ginger essential oil. I just like the spontaneous zip from the little bits of ginger.

Cinnamon Gummies Recipe

ENJOY! Have questions? Ask me!

One will probably have better luck getting in contact with me on Facebook.

P.S. I use grass fed, organic gelatin.

Shin Splints

I've recently started running again and developed a slight case of shin splints. I got it really bad in high school when I joined competitive gymnastics for PE and I didn't want a repeat. So, I took out Aroma Siez and applied it to both my shins NEAT. I felt an almost instant relief, particularly when walking.
