My Seed Orders

I ordered from two heirloom seed companies this year and have already received some of my seeds. Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds: Garden Berry Chichiquelite Huckleberry Fennel Di Ferenze - nine plants coming up and will plant more for later harvest Precoce D' Aregenteuil Asparagus Henderson's Pink Ponderosa Tomatoes - three plants started Garden Berries Yellow Wonder Wild Strawberry - nine plants started Garden Berry Red Wonder Wild Strawberry - nine plants started Wonderberry/Sunberry Herb Stevia Strawberry Popcorn Quinoa Kaslala Garden Berry Thai Red Papaya Banana Pink Pepino Some of these I won't plant until this fall, winter them in the house and them bring them outside next spring for a fall harvest. My hubby is also going to make me a hoop house (green house) so that we can start seedling in February next year. I ordered the rest of my seeds from heirloomseeds.com and I am still waiting for them. We are getting fences up and garden space tilled, I can't wait till they come. I should have already had seeds started but I can hope for another warm September.

Going Shampoo Free

Have you ever looked at the back of your shampoo bottle? It is full of chemicals, most of those chemicals are toxic and carcinogenic. Now, did you know that you don't have to use shampoo? Or conditioner? Regular shampoos use lathering agents that strip all the oil out of your hair and off your scalp. The result is a super dry scalp that freaks our and produces way more oil than needed, thus giving you the impression that you have really oily hair. Nartual shampoos can be quite expensive and most will still strip the oils from your hair. So what's a girl to do? About three weeks ago I went no 'poo. Partly because we ran out of shampoo and mostly because I did want to spend $8.99 of a bottle of shampoo. I have been massaging my hair and scalp with baking soda mixed with water about twice a week. Some people do a vinegar rinse to balance the pH but I haven't remember the vinegar and haven't have any problems. There will be an adjustment period were your hair is super greasy because it is so use to over producing. If you can stick it out long enough to get past the really greasy part, you will be rewarding with glossy, managable, heathly hair, you won't be exposing yourself to harmful chemicals everytime you wash your hair and you will save money.
