Its a glorious dull overcast day here, we have had rain overnight which is badly needed here in this part of Australia. Yes its wintertime and the days are cold and short. I love the days where it is still cold, but the sun shines, which brings a warmth and a glow to the day, but theres a warmth and a glow to my heart as well. I know soon that the warmer weather will come, and until then I

I found this on Kim Schafer-Jones blog spot 'Wyoming Prairie'On the first day, God created the dog and said:'Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past.. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years.'The dog said: 'That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?' So God agreed.On the second day, God

Natural face lift requires ingredients that are readily available in your fridge. The nonsurgical face lifts that you can prepare at home, contain the best natural ingredients that might not offer a permanent solution, but certainly benefit the skin's rejuvenation. They reduce the fine lines' appearance and smooth the skin if used regularly. Starting off with a basic natural face lift would be

NEVER use human shampoo on your pets. The ingredients are very harmful to them.Any dog has a time in its life when it doesn’t smell as fresh and clean as if it was just washed in a fresh, spring-fed lake. This is where essential oils can come to the rescue. Not only do they mask unpleasant odors but they offer some aromatherapy to the dog and household. You can create a variety of different

'Helping your Health and The Enviroment at the same time' I know this is going to seem like a simple tip but it can make the world of difference to everyday health and the ability to move into cleaning simplicity: Buy liquid dish detergent that is free of dyes and fragrance.

Well my youngest has just had her sweet 16th birthday. Not one but two parties. Her first party was a sleepover with her friends, they all dressed up and went out to dinner by themselves. Very grown up. Then a week later on her actual birthday she had her family dinner out at a local restaurant. Her dad made her a huge Chocolate Mud cake. It was all great fun, but im glad its over for another

To me this saying makes sense, on the one hand we are human beings, having a spiritual experience or at least trying to. But I like to think that we are spiriual beings brought to earth to have a human experience. I look at the world around me and it is so beautiful, but listen to the news and its so crazy. People are going mad, saying crazy things, doing crazy things. What is real and what is

Aspirin face maskAspirin is a form of Beta Hydroxy Acids or BHA’s which is known to help with cleaning pores from inside out and exfoliating the dull, dead layers of skin. When used over time, BHA’s can help clarify skin tone and contribute to keeping our skin blemish-free.To make the Aspirin mask, first you need to get uncoated, dissolvable tablets.

I just have to rave about these new products I have added on my for your health web site, The name of the range is Body Treats and they are all Australian owned and made. I wanted to buy the whole range as soon as I saw them. The products come in 5 fragrances, Hot Grapefruit, Spicy Pear, Very Berry, Sticky Mango and Ice Lime. They all sound good enough to eat, let alone use. As I love candles

Will the bed last the distance. What colour, what fabric, what design, what's next? It seemed to be too many choices. But then again we spend a lot of time choosing our own beds. So the search began.

Meet MickeyA Tibetan Spaniel Cross, not sure what he is crossed with. He is a pound rescue puppy. About 1 year old. Mickey has settled in very well. Loves annoying our cat Ayla, although I think he really just wants to play with her. She looks at him as though he is scum and not worthy of her time.
