Home with Tracy

I am always looking for non-toxic ways to clean my home. A few weeks ago, I was introduced to ePantry and I am so glad I was. My first order consisted of Meyer's dish soap (basil scent), Meyer's laundry detergent (lavender scent), Meyer's fabric softener (lavender scent) and Meyer's multi-purpose cleaner (lemon scent).   The first time you sign up for ePantry, you will be asked questions to help you choose what would best fit your needs. The process is easy, the selection is great, the prices very reasonable and the delivery was quick. When the box arrived, my children dove into the box quicker than I could. My youngest daughter loved the scents and asked if she could use them to clean the bathroom right after the box arrived. That, in itself, was worth trying ePantry. She is quite the little homemaker. I really like the convenience of ePantry.   I choose what products I would like to purchase and how often I would like them delivered. From now until May 31,...

I have written about my experience with Zaycon Fresh previously, but I wanted to share with you a little more. We recently picked up our order of ground beef. This is my first experience purchasing the ground beef and just like everything else I have purchased from Zaycon Fresh in the past, I was very pleased.

Prior to processing, inspectors from the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service randomly sample cattle under a monitoring plan and perform testing for antibiotic residues. USDA nutrition labeling standards defines "extra ...

My husband enjoys taking our children for hikes on local trails. The kids have a blast walking on logs over streams, climbing hills and trying to avoid (maybe not trying) all the mud. Since the area is very wooded, there are so many bugs. Our youngest daughter seems to be a bug magnet. Every time she goes outside, she comes in with bites. I have tried so many bug sprays on her with little success....until I tried this one! I originally planned on making a bug repellent spray but realized I was out of spray bottles. I made the bug repellent in a gel form and put them in bottles because we needed something quickly. Honestly, I think I like the gel better. It spreads nicely and you can get even coverage.   Bug Repellent Gel 1/2 cup aloe vera gel 2 Tbsp water 10 drops doTerra Terra Shield 10 drops doTerra Purity Blend well and pour into two 2 oz containers. When applying, pour a small amount into your hand and rub on exposed skin. It absorbs nicely and softens your skin. ...
