Earth Day 2009 goodies-ACT FAST!

Earth Day 2009 April 22, 2009
Happy Earth Day Friends,
For those of us not that familiar with Earth Day, it is a campaign to educate people about how to be more environmentally conscious and to help extend the dwindling natural resources on our dear planet Earth.  I think of Earth Day as little things I can do everyday to save me mo ney GREEN as many of the tips save me a lot of money. Things like recycling, turning off lights when not in use, turning off water while brushing teeth, making sure home appliances work well and not increase my electricity bill, avoiding dangerous plastics leeching toxins into my food and body, eating more local and/or organic foods to help me avoid dangerous pesticides linked to many health problems facing us and our children today so I can save more money GREEN on less medicine as a result. While I personally find many "earth friendly" , "environmentally safe" and "green" commercial products to be well out of my price range for everyday use, there are many old school natural tips that have been used for centuries that work well. I have attached a brochure with my current favorite "green" cleaning recipes and tips. Also enjoy these Earth Day goodies today. Act fast as many of these are in-store only for a limited time.
Happy save-the-earth, save- money, save-my-health Earth Day everyone!
-Love Renee

Hello again Friends,
Are you looking for way to avoid the controversial cancer causing chemical BPA lining in canned food? I just found Polar brand fruits in little cute GLASS jars for only ~$1 at Wal-Mart Super Centers. Super Target stores have them on sale this week for only $0.85 each. I avoid the fruit cocktail because of the Red #40 in the cherries, but my family LOVES the other fruits. See attached for photos of what they look like. After you are done enjoying the fruit, the cute glass jars make great storage containers for candles, homemade gifts, etc and are 100% recyclable. What a great way to prepare for Earth Day (April 22) this mo nth!
Here are 3 great links to online coupons and a phone number to obtain a whole booklet of great organic coupons for some great everyday products you may use.
-Enjoy.

How to Eat Well on a Super Cheap Budget

Thursday, April 16, 2009 How to Eat Well on a Super Cheap Budget (the day after tax day!)

Hello Friends,
Please check out this site a colleague turned me on to which describes how to eat well on a North Carolina food stamp allowance. Great recipes, meal ideas and tips for the rest of us trying to save money and eat quality nutritious REAL foods as well. Enjoy.
-Renee

http://www.cookforgood.com/

Excerpts from the website:
"You can now eat well for just $1.12 a meal, down from $1.25 in January. Go green for $1.88 a meal, up from $1.78 last month.
The maximum food-stamp allowance for a family of four in North Carolina is $1.61 a meal, 48 cents more a meal than the Cook for Good regular plan."

FREE stuff about kids health

4/13/2009

1 Comment

 


Hello Friends,
 My Mama always said I drove her crazy with my very frequent use of the question "WHY". I guess I was born to be a scientist and question things. As we approach the Easter holiday and all the Spring and Easter themed egg hunts/parties/festivities filled with artificially colored and flavored poison junk to "treat" our kids, we should STOP and THINK and ASK about what they are actually consuming and YEARN for the truth. STOP: Can you pronounce the ingredients? THINK: Why do we feel like parents are weird or too strict for "depriving" children of artificially colored and flavored candy and junk? Why don't we think twice about being lulled in by the marketing ploys aimed at our children and give in to their requests for brightly colored boxes with only the outside image of real food? ASK: Why don't we believe real natural foods taste as good as junk food? Has something happened to our perception of what is quality and real that we can no longer discern what is good anymore?  Do we actually believe than mere humans can invent better food for us and our children than our Creator? Well, here are some FREE online games and free health related stuff to help educate both us and our kids about real foods again. Enjoy and S.T.A.Y. for truth [Stop-Think-Ask-Yearn] so your children will never ASK you "Why didn't you teach me how to be live healthy?"

5. Free Word search creator. I use it a lot to create word searches with the names of kids at church or in my class to make learning fun or with whatever health/nutrition topic I am discussing for a church bulletin insert. I find teens and adults pay attention more and retain the information better as many people LOVE word searches.
