My philosophy....homemade is ALWAYS healthier, is ALWAYS cheaper, and is therefore BETTER!

When you make things homemade you will naturally never put in as much sugar or salt as the companies do-you just won't. Plus homemade means no preservatives and you know the common rule-your food should be able to go bad or its not real food!

When you make things homemade you're always saving money! Who wants to pay the manufacturer, shipper, store, etc. each for a box of cookies!?!?!

Once you go homemade-you'll never go back! Fresh food that YOU produced for your family will not only leave you feeling accomplished and proud, it tastes incredible and you'll never be able to eat the packaged stuff without comparing-and homemade will win!

Have fun, experiment, and Enjoy!

Lemon Sugar Scrub

I'm always looking for easy gifts to do for Grandma's, Sisters, Teachers, or dear Friends and thanks to my sister,  this Sugar Scrub is my choice for holiday gifts this year!  I had all the ingredients in my pantry and only needed to purchase the small 3oz jars which were about $6 at Walmart for 12.  This recipe will fill 6.

Mix 2 1/2 cups sugar, 1 cup olive oil, and 4 T lemon juice (or a few drops of any other essential oil scent you like) and spoon mixture into jars.  It's that simple!

Sugar scrubs are great for exfoliating and moisturizing and leave you smelling fresh and wonderful!



Be creative and enjoy!
