There are points that (in my humble opinion….) that really should be pondered quite carefully with all of the radio and television play on what our government and media keep telling us that that we will be “the new normal”. Please take a moment and really think about this. Then, […]

My thoughts for 2020 are that I wish you (yes, you…yes, this is personal)…ENOUGH. Enough company when you want to be surrounded. Enough solitude when you don’t. Enough of a solid roof over your head, and enough food in your cupboards. I wish you enough coins in your pocket that […]
There really is nothing “simple” about trying to be a hippie. Humans continue to label “hippies” as somewhat outside the norm. Personally, I think being all natural and organic should be considered NORMAL. There is so much “product” available for consumption these days that most people have no clue what […]
Well, it’s official…my hippie-ness is starting to rub off on those around me, and even as far as the mid-Western US. I have a request to share some recipes! My niece, and new Mother, Amanda has decided that she wants to learn how to make as much of her own […]

There’s a certain philosophy involved in calling one’s self a Hippie. To some, it’s an entire realm of anti-establishment beliefs. To others, it’s a movement – born in the 60’s, held over through modern times. To me is a simple, natural, inexpensive way of doing things. As a child of […]
Well, I did it. I can’t say it was earth shattering, or a revelation, or even a minor hiccup in the cosmic makeup of all things important – but I did it. With help. I’m in NO way going to claim responsibility for having the wherewithal to have come up […]
