It was the night before New Years Eve, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse…

We all have the flu and are snuggled in bed, while I write this blog I long to lay down my head… Hehehe!

There hasn’t been a time where everyone in the house is layed out, but after all the exposure to illnesses at holiday parties, it was bound to happen!

With loving kindness, I ask to consider staying home when having a cough or fever… I know it’s not always possible, but if you can, please spare the babies and toddlers from being exposed to these harsh illnesses…

Now back to your regularly scheduled blog about healthy living… Lol!

We are due for groceries, but luckily, I was able to scramble this together from the farm fresh produce box we have delivered to our home…

This soup turned out pretty Yummy Yummy for a hodge podge last minute scramble… It felt so good on our sore throats…

My apologies, for this messy format… I’m literally typing this on my phone, while in bed with a fever… Wahwahwah! A mommy’s job is never done!
