Real Food Book Bundle ~ GAPS Friendly And a Give Away Worth Over $325!

Posted by PattyLA on Jul 15, 2013 in Blog, GAPS, Kids, photo, Recipe, Sale | 0 comments

Nourished Living Network’s July eBook bundle theme is Real Food! Welcome to the monthly eBooks Bundle featuring eBooks authored by members of the Nourished Living Network. Each month, we feature a themed bundle of informative eBooks at a reduced price. Since I know that many of my readers are specifically interested in GAPS books, 2 of these books were written with GAPS in mind. Those two books together retail for $28.92 so it is like getting them for half price. The rest of the books aren’t GAPS specific but they will have recipes and ideas that apply in a GAPS kitchen. I also know that many of my readers are not on GAPS at this point in time. All of these books have healthy choices for your family no matter what dietary principles you follow.

The Best Cast Iron Seasoning Method!

Posted by PattyLA on Jul 11, 2013 in Blog, photo, Traditional Foods | 44 comments

A few years ago I ran across this special kind of cast iron seasoning. I was fairly happy until that point with my cast iron but I’m always looking to improve things. Plus this method promised that I could keep my pans clean, without a film of grease on them. I was convinced to give it a try. I used this method 2 years ago on 4 frying pans and have been thrilled with the result ever since. Those pans had been in use for several years and had been seasoned several times in those years using various methods. Nothing lasted as well as this one has lasted. Unless I do some damage to these pans I assume I’ll never have to season them again. At minimum they have a great non-stick surface and are very low maintenance....

I am so excited to officially announce that I am a contributor in a newly published book, Trust Your Intuition: 25 “Natural Medicine Confessions” From Influential Women Who Choose Healing Remedies for Their Families (affiliate link). It will be released July 17, 2013. There are 24 other women besides me, who have also contributed, and we each share a story of why we chose to use natural medicine for a health issue or challenge in our homes. In this book there are situations that these women have encountered and they have shared how they have used natural medicine to resolve the problem. My chapter is about my experience with Endometriosis surgery and the months that it took me to recover from it. I am amazed at the power of the other stories in the book. I want to introduce you to...

Loving Our Guts on Vacation in Colorado!

Posted by PattyLA on Jul 5, 2013 in Blog, Kids, Love Comes Fist, photo | 5 comments

My family took a vacation to the mountains of Colorado and we had a great time. Vacation when you are on a special diet or have significant health issues doesn’t tend to be very spontaneous and traveling light is not in the vocabulary but we made it work and had a great time. We rented a 29 foot motorhome for the trip and our experience with it was excellent. The company that we used is a local one here in the St. Louis area. This company purchases new motor homes to rent out each year and then sells them off after one year of use is up. This means that we had no fears of our motorhome breaking down on the road and also it was not plastered all over with those advertisement that let everyone know you rented...
