For the last post in this month's series, I thought I'd show you something an eensy bit creative... This is a super fun, no skills required way to recycle and craft/decorate at the same time!

A Delicious Gluten-Free Lasagna

And, hopefully you … Continue reading Reuse: Cloth Toilet Paper
My Health Journey: Part IV
This is the fourth post in a series. You'll be a little lost if you don't start at the beginning... In my last post, I started to share how things started looking up for me, health-wise.
