Irritation.

You know what irritates me? At least 50% of the time I go out in public a cashier says..Oh you have a spoiled boy their...

Well you know fucking what I can clearly see a child freaking out, jumping up and down trying to grab items off the conveyer belt....Maybe just MAYBE if you were not so ignorant I wouldn't feel such a deep seeded need to punch you in the face, But you cant punch ignorant out of someone just like I cant discipline the diagnosis out of my son. He has it...ALWAYS. So thanks for pointing that out...makes me feel great.

*Staring*

Yang Wong

This lush, exotic woman is strong, clean and complex. Hair that smells of muguet, ozone and ylang ylang you can smell it all the way to her toes of course they smell of rose, jasmine and powder right to her sole. She is posh and blonde.

Pretender

A mysterious, sweet, earthy Hippy. Notes of amber, patchouli, rose and sandalwood dance in her head with nuances of jasmine and citrus to bring out subtle hints of spice in her voice.A young child is with her with a face  of vanilla and powder. They dance in a field of lavender every morning.

Snooki

The sweetness of spun sugar is swirled with creamy vanilla and fruits of strawberry and cherry.

Shes drunk. You know it.

Pineapple Under The Sea

Fresh and  sweet, lingering, warm pineapple scent floats down the room. You can smell her from here.She has a way about her you cant forget. 

Lovers Revenge

Shes deep, thoughtful but a bit fruity. Be scared. She is the crazy type you cant forget.A bit of a twizzler.

Nutzz

He will take your breath away. He is crisp and strong.Shes tart and juicy. The romance they share is like looking into a window of a love story. A true story, because I said so

Over The Hill

Sweat enough to eat they said, mixed with sweet sugar and vanilla they said. Looks fade, stupid stays.

I Stole YOUR soap!

I'm like a thief in the night, i have your pictures I'm going to make a website and post them for sale. I will collect money and not send product for my personal gain or i just might direct them to you to give you a bad name. Why? Because people are sketchy. I read posts all the time regarding...who does this belong to we found it on a bad website?

You need to watermark your pictures so that it cant be cropped out put that shit on the bar of soap! Below is a selection of pictures I hunted down and stole.  This does happen do not think it doesn't.

Please note this is just for fun, I JUST started water marking my products. Some I couldn't do because the label was in the picture, some had no water mark, and for funzies the flower was so easy to do because its water marked so small that no one will notice.

Thank you all for your pictures and hopefully a little education will spread around. Im not going to post this to my personal or business page becasue its for our education and not for the public.

MOTHERS DAY

"My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute all my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her."

George Washington

I have cried, screamed, yelled, fought back tears, laughed, smiled, snuggled and loved more in the last 6 years. Two children later and I am stronger (most days) than ever!

Being a mother is not for the weak or faint of heart. Shit be tough sometimes. I'm like a warrior of the worst kind. The kind you don't want to mess with in a dark alley. I have stood up for my children, guided them and protected them. I have yelled at people in stores for staring. I have kissed skinned knees. I have picked up bugs and brushed away dirt and wiped away tears. I have stayed up all night to watch over a fever and fell asleep sitting up feeding babies. Ive sat in doctors offices and meetings listening to bullshit over and over again.

I would do it all over again for 100 years.

Happy Mothers days!

Lets not forget all the single daddies raising their babies alone!

Gwyneth Paltrow lived off 29$ a week for food?

Find the article here.

This is how it makes me feel here,

Poverty is no laughing matter. Its not a game. Its not a joke and its not always something you can help. All too often I hear...I couldn't do it. Yes you could. If you had too.

Hearing people say we need to teach the poor about nutrition also makes me feel like this

How about we have some common sense and make nutrition cheaper? Theirs a classic idea!

I went to my local stores and bought 29$ worth of food for a week to help the non prepared people learn how to live poor in case they ever fall upon hardship. In case your wondering and read the article about Gwyneth, no it doesn't contain  limes or beans. But I do have an uncanny resemblance to Gwenny POO.

I've lived cheap. Ive had too. No I am not a drug addict or an alcoholic who spent their money. Just a mom with two boys. I'm blessed that I don't live like that anymore. My boys are fortunate to not do with out, but just as my mom did to me I will do with them and teach them how to eat and live cheap just in case hardship hits. They will survive. 

To all the people that live with two incomes and live beyond their needs and never think about how they will survive because they have credit cards they don't care if they max and don't want to have to do with out in order to teach their children how to cope and live in a recession or poverty, you will starve and die. Does that piss you off? This is how i feel about you being pissy with what I just said here

For breakfast kid A and Kid B will have a bun and margarine and one egg each, except  Sunday, we are out of eggs and buns.

You wont eat breakfast its for the kids.

Monday you will make a big old pot of macaroni and tomato juice with beef/pork. you will eat this MON TUE WED for lunch and dinner.

Thursday you will make soup from the chicken and carrots and potatoes. A big old pot again and eat it for THURSDAY FRI SAT  lunch and dinner.

Sunday your out so for breakfast you fry up valuable potatoes for breakfast. then add in any extra carrots  for lunch and dinner...If you run low mix in some bread (oh yeah your out). It spreads out the potatoes.

Sound good? No, didn't think so.

I'm lucky my mother taught me to bake bread from scratch, That's right by hand. She taught me how to stretch out meals. Just in case. I know how to can food. I know how to make cheap gigantic meals that I can freeze and save. Just in case.

Now imagine this budget with school age children. The pressure to pack healthy food on their lunch. Juice boxes, snacks, sandwich meat and fruit. 

Affordable healthy food. The poor are not stupid. Just poor.

Grow gardens people. Eat and can the rest. freeze leftovers. You should have a month just in case.

Stay crunchy folks and love one another regardless of income level.

No Poo and Why?

Hello everyone!

I am now ending my second week. I have washed my hair twice with baking soda and apple cider vinigar. It has been 5 days since I last washed my hair with bs/acv. My hair is not greasy and transitioning well. If I need to freshen up my curl I simply just wet my hair. I LOVE NO POO!

Lets take a look at why NO POO or LOW POO is a good choice.

Silicones. 

They make your hair and skin smooth and fills in and smooths your skin in skin care products. sounds great right? Not to me. I dont want to walk around with a coating of silicone on my face and hair. That can not be good in the long run. This covering traps dirt and debris...can you say break out much? These also are non biodegradable and poloute our enviroment...oh yeah the one WE and OUR kids live in.

Polyethelyne Glycol.

Also called PEG/Polyethelyne or Polyoxyethelyne, this ingredient is included in shampoos as a thickening agent. This strips your skin and hair of natural moisture...counter productive no? Well we have a chemical to counter act that feeling and its above ^


Diethanolamine (DEA) and Triethanolamine (TEA).

 Products containing DEA or TEA can cause scalp irritation and bad allergic reactions, and they also destroy all the good stuff in your hair (such as keratin), making your hair dry, brittle, and lifeless.
Dont worry got a chemical to cover that up too!

Parabens.

 Used to prolong shelf life of an average hair-care product, parabens like methylparaben and propylparaben are chemicals that are known for their toxic nature. Parabens not only irritate the skin—which can make your scalp unhealthy—they can also affect your hormonal balance, which can result in hair loss.

Formaldehyde.

 Excessive exposure to formaldehyde, which is found in some shampoos, may cause some hair loss. Great!

Propylene Glycol. 

Also known as the antifreeze you put in your car, propylene glycol is a common ingredient in shampoos and other personal care products to keep the product from freezing during shipping and storage. It can irritate skin, causing allergic reactions, and it alters skin structure. Just what i need!

Stay informed and stay crunchy!

Crystal Infused Soap

The power of crystal infused soap is amazing! Start your morning journey off right.

I first rinse the stone and let it dry..I let it sit covered in sea salt and use this time to meditate picturing light surrounding the stone and the stone filling the salt with its powers. I remove the stone and let it sit in coconut oil while repeating the meditation and visualization.

I make the soap with 100% coconut infused oil and the sea salt.

Hand etching the soap is also a form of meditation while i finish the process of making a crystal infuses salt soap!

enjoy!

keep crunchy
