  THE VIOLET HUMMINGBIRD

Spring and Summer 2023:

Oh the growth!  Oh the addition of herbs and flowers and vegetables!  The pictures are just so lovely!  Seems like every day there's more growth, more green more love!  

I'm am creating a 'bug aversion' planter.   Herbs are our best friend and to most flying annoyances, they are exactly that.  A little Catnip, Basil, Thyme, Lemongrass and Lavender.  The strong scent of these herbs will help keep bugs at bay.

Another option are smudge sticks of Sage, Lavender and other herbs mentioned above.  The high level of citronellal from Lemon Balm and Lemon Thyme, bugs detest.  Burning Sage along with Lavender and other herbs keep bugs away also.  The smoke of the sage with the chemical properties of linalool and camphor of the herbs, make the bugs stay away also.

Herbs don't only make for a tasty meal but they help us in so many other ways!

Have any other questions?  Send me an email!  Have a wonderful day!

Drying clothes inside is coming quickly!

I'm one of those, hang the clothes on the line as long as possible - actually day, a bright brisk in the 40's may have reached 50's weather, the clothes went on the line.

There are lots of reason I do this. It keeps clothes from wearing out sooner, it brings the fresh of the air onto your body to help you heal, without you even knowing.   It keeps the electricity bill low.  But mostly because it's soothing.  It keeps you grounded and humble.  

But as the days grown colder and darker, some of the clothes will end up going into dryer and that's where wool/alpaca balls come in handy.  Lowers the drying time and if you add essential oils to the dryer balls, you have your fragrance.  But this fragrance is safe.  Or you can keep them fragrance free.  

By keeping the fragrance out, you are removing one toxin from your life - YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It's the simple easy steps that help.  I'm all for simple.  

Keeping the toxins out of our clothes, food, air will, over time, heal all of us.  Let's start simple - ditch the dryer sheets and go with wool or alpaca balls.  

Amazon carries them - or help a local farmer out.  

We're all in this together - let's help each other

Love and light
