Dental care is one of those things we all hate to deal with. I cross my fingers each time we drive up to the dentist office with my children hoping for no cavities. We have been pretty lucky with the last few years. However, that wasn’t always the case for us. My kids dealt with proneness to cavities for years. I couldn’t figure it out and dug into the research on preventing cavities. There are a number of things that have changed the trajectory of my children’s dental health journey. But there is one product in particular that helped us through some sticky situations when it came to tooth decay.

How to Convert ANY Recipe into Sourdough

November 8, 2024
convert any recipe into sourdough

Baking with sourdough starter has been such a fun process to get into. I know many people shy away from learning how to bake with it, but it isn’t quite as cumbersome as some expect. It may seem a bit confusing at the beginning but isn’t everything when it’s new? As adults, we often become comfortable in what we know and rarely move out of our comfort zone to learn a new skill. We have honed our skill set, have the jobs that work for us, and don’t often need to learn a new task. We forget what it’s like to learn new skills and sometimes make a mountain out of an ant hill. In my opinion, Sourdough is just a new skill that takes some practice at the beginning. Once you’ve got it, you got it! I certainly don’t regret learning how to make this healthy, easily digestible and incredibly delicious bread! Here is an incredibly easy way to convert any recipe into sourdough!

stop recurring strep infections

As a child, I dealt with recurring strep infections. It’s what lead me to having to surgically remove my tonsils and adenoids at the age of 10. I know all too well the frustration of having strep return over and over again. But it was even more stressful when it started happening to my own children. We had a 6 month period where strep infections were returning each month. Strep can be dangerous and can negatively impact the brain and the body. This is why I searched high and low to figure out WHY it was happening to us and HOW to stop recurring strep infections from happening. I stumbled upon some research and a solution that has completely helped us stop recurring strep infections in our home. The relief I have had as a Mother is palpable. I wanted to share my findings and experience incase others are going through the same cycle as we were.
