Chook Haven Musings: April 2013
http://cedarhavencreations.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 13, 2013. More snow and more predicted tonight and tomorrow! Perhaps if I share another poem by my grandmother.we can see the beauty once more. The snow has ceased to fall. And all the world is still,. Gray clouds are appliqued against the sky. Above the white-roofed hill. The firs are richly clad. In ermine robes that gleam. A frosting over hands the river's edge. Where it narrows to a stream. The fence is trimmed with lace. And cotton candy fluff. Each silhouetted rock is softened now.

Stinging nett...

Chook Haven Musings: June 2010
http://cedarhavencreations.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 22, 2010. The weather gave us a break from rain last weekend and most of the weeding is done. On Saturday my hubby and oldest son went to a family reunion up in Deer River, and my youngest son Remington tilled while I weeded between the plants. More mulching is needed though and we are trying to get that done in between the thunderstorms this week. Monday's downpour put a "damper" on the progress. Summer Solstice on Monday, brought the first hay cutting of the year. We are behind now as...

Wednesday, May 19, 2010. What's is all for? Here is the message I received today from; "Notes From The Universe". What's it all for? You, it's all about you. What you like and dislike. What you want and don't want. What makes you smile and laugh. What makes you learn and grow. How else could you shine your light? How else could you possibly hope to lift th. How else could you be all that we dreamed you might be? Selfish of me -. I like that I can make healthy herbal and personal care products for my fami...

Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Chamomile and Pineapple Weed: Herbal Wellness Workshop at Back To Basics 2010. Also known as; Mayweed, Scented Mayweed.

Monday, April 5, 2010. Mosquito Season Coming Soon! Two of my seasonal products I make are "Insect Away" Lotion and "Insect Away" Spray; Herbal and Essential Oil Pest Discouragers! I use the spray on my horse "Greyboy" as he has sensitive Arabian skin and it works wonderfully! I make up a huge spray bottle especially for him. But for now I'm going to share a couple of my main ingredients that make my bug spray so very effective as well as natural and safe! Next I'll post on how to make Yarrow Tincture.

Chook Haven Musings: February 2010
http://cedarhavencreations.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 27, 2010. Finished batch in small mold with dividers. Oils are about half melted. Lye solution cooling in the sink. Tallow, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil on the stove and ready for melting. I also got the floor painted in the back half of the workshop room. What a lovely color. This pic makes the color look more plum than it is. It's actually a more purple color. A dusty purple. I plan on hanging a burlap on the walls in a very bright yellow. Won't this look fabulous?

The going to be new me....: Honesty is the best policy…

The going to be new me. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Honesty is the best policy…. So for the month of August I am going to keep on doing what I’m doing minus the extra pound up here. I’m still going to count calories, track my food and get what exercise I can in and in September I will get back to the gym and get back to doing the losing part of my life style changes. So honesty is the best policy and also pretty boring to read. I’m studying for my bus endorsement. And then there’s fishing too. Ahhh best of l...
