Interesting Information

I saw a new ARNP this week, she was great! We talked about my sleep issues, so she said to try drinking Catnip Tea. Will give it a try. I am having trouble finding it in the stores, but I saw it on Amazon. Alvita brand is a good one, make sure it is organic. She also suggested I steep an organic onion in filtered water for 5 minutes and add a bit of organic honey to it. The combination is supposed to help get rid of the mucous in your throat. Interesting huh? I love meeting new professionals, they always seem to be so real and so wise!

Raspberry Linzer Cookies

Glutenetto
I wanted something with my organic coffee yesterday and spotted their Raspberry Linzer Cookies, so I decided to try them. They were light, crispy, had just the right amount of raspberry jam and they melted in my mouth. I really enjoyed them thoroughly, that is until I read the ingredients! It's a good thing I didn't read the list before hand, huh?
