Cooking In the Kitchen with your family can be so much fun!

Hello my friend,

There is something to be said for "homemade", even if it isn't all healthy. It has to be better for you than what comes out of a box, right? I there were very few box mixes in my Mom's kitchen, growing up.

She always made a point of using "unbleached flour" and real butter in her cookies. I don't know what it is about it, but real butter just makes homemade cakes and cookies so much better!

I remember such wonderful times cooking in the kitchen with my mom. Sometimes it was digging through my Grandma's recipes to see if there was anything different we wanted to make that year. This is such a great way to pass down those recipes from generation to generation.

When we made cut-out cookies, all the children would gathered around the table. Mom would apply the white frosting and the kids would decorate them with colored sprinkles, red hots, and all kinds of things. Those were fun times of laughing and talking and using our creativity together around the kitchen table.

We invite you to experience our Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil. With its spicy, woody notes combined with sweet warmth, it’s perfect for diffusing to create a cozy atmosphere. Internally, it aids in blood sugar management and supports immune health, making it a wonderful addition to your wellness routine. Cinnamon is sourced from a tropical evergreen tree that can grow up to an impressive 45 feet tall and boasts fragrant bark, leaves, and beautiful flowers. Our Cinnamon Essential Oil, extracted from the bark, promotes healthy metabolic function and immune response when it matters most.

Cooking In the Kitchen with your family can be so much fun!

You know, these days, we are so busy with everything going on. Getting your kids or grandkids in the kitchen to cook with you - cutting up vegetables, sharing your favorite spices in sauces and broths - is almost a lost art.

If we are going to stick together and fight the junk and processed food trends around us, we really NEED to get our families back in the kitchen together.

Some of the best conversations with my mom when I was a teenager happened when we were washing dishes together. No screens, no distractions - just time together these are times I will cherish for the rest of my life.

Until next time – Be Well !!
