Fresh From The HotBox this week Blueberry Struedel Muffins

So today I was having a hankering for some awesome blueberry muffins. So I decided well I might as well make them since I had all the stuff to make them I simply needed to add the motivation. Eating healthier and making from scratch affords you the opportunity not only to know what you are eating but what you are sustaining your family with. I am a simple woman and when I cannot pronounce ingredients I often find myself out off simply because it could be something horrible and the general public really has no idea. Following blindly, trusting that the checks and balances set up are what is "best".  I choose what is best for my family, not some white coat adding unpronounceable ingredients to my meals. Please understand, I am nowhere near perfect and I am constantly fighting what is good for me vs. what I want to consume in mass quantities blindly. However, this morning we are eating  fresh from the hotbox blueberry muffins and that is one less meal I have to worry about quality. Baby steps start us out, but each step no matter how small is an impact.

Good Morning Everyone! Official full first day of dreadlocks

Due to a recent turn of events I was able to have dreadlocks established in my hair. For over a year now I have been looking into dreading my hair and not really knowing where to turn. I have watched countless YouTube videos some were good, some were not so good. I've looked at tons of pictures, read blogs on maintenance, you name it I did it except for actually getting the dreads. Yesterday I finally took the plunge and had my hair dreaded. The whole experience was very interesting. Not really what I had expected, although I don't know what I really did expect. I am very excited to start this journey and I am so so blessed to be able to share it with you. So I hope that you can come along and hit all of the wonderful ups and downs of dreadlocks.
