Our daughter Emily is all settled at BYU college. She wrote and said she was introducing others to raw foods, raw breads (sorry, I sent it all with her...you are all going to get some soon....PROMISE!) and raw green smoothies! Her roommates and neighbors are in for a real treat! And of course, she is now known as the best popcorn maker in the entire WORLD! Yup....white popcorn, coconut oil and nutritional yeast in butter with Realsalt! YUM! They will all be lining up......

While I was gone....LOT"S of the products we ordered came in!!!! Are you ready for this? Our LAUNDRY Magnets are finally in! I have been working with these people for MONTHS and they are now here! Purchase your magnets for $49.95 and NEVER buy laundry soap again! Our family has been using them for years, and they are GREAT~! You read that right..no soaps. NONE needed! And, it only gets better....they now make a Dryer System that not only keep your cloths soft, but also cut your dryer time by 25%! These little balls have protrusions that stick out that keep the clothes separated while drying so your load dries quicker! al without any chemicals or dryer sheets! And, we ordered NanoTowels! The permanent paper towel! This new proprietary fiber blend cleans your home without toxic chemicals, and they are absorbable, reusable washable and incredible!!!

Our LARGE order of Colavita 100% organic Extra Virgin First Cold Pressed Olive Oil is in! Come in and grab them up while they are on sale! We have a fancy end cap at the check out!

and last but never least.....

TWIST European cleaning products! 100% biodegradable towels, sponge cloths, sponges and loofah sponges~! GREAT GREAT products! You will find these great items by our new magnets, dryer system and towels in the laundry and cleaning isle!

It was a great pleasure to visit other "health food" stores and roam the isles. It is extremely assuring to know that we have hand selected the items we sell, and we stand firm behind them. With only some of the gluten free items as exceptions, all of the 2000+ items we sell are organic, or made from high quality non GMO ingredients, and NO MSG's of any sort. There are many name brand "health" items we could sell, but after doing research on their products, we will not carry them. Too many companies are hiding their inferior products behind words like organic, wildcrafted and natural, when in reality they are not worth the money they paid for the box. Yes, there is truth in the phrase "it is healthier to eat the box!" So no matter where you shop, please read your labels and do your research! (yes, a mother is speaking here....sorry...)

As a mother speaking......If you are looking for a GREAT family picture for Christmas cards, visit our daughters website! She has just uploaded senior pictures to her blog and they are GREAT! Jenna has been shooting models and weddings from coast to coast this summer. She keeps in touch with MANY area and world photographers and attends seminars and workshops all over. She is heading off to another one in NY next month, and Las Vegas has her keen interest....but I can't remember if she is going. I know she is going to one in Chicago....just can't remember when! What kind of mother am I? Visit www.jennajulianne.com and visit her blog for the best senior pictures I personally have ever seen. Some classic family pictures as well! And, you can use our garden for your pictures if you like! I know she was shooting around some family promotion deal, but I let her run her own business and keep my nose out of it. Unless she asks for my opinion that is.....as all good women offer opinions if asked! (cue the laughter men...)

TUESDAYS CLASS: Come this Tuesday September 15th to learn from the best how to gather, save and use those seeds! Leah Klien and her sister are both NUTS about gardening, and we are excited to have them come! 6:30 PM Cost: $7.00. See you then!
