Crockpot Pork Roast

I’m starting this blog post with one of the worst photos I have ever taken AND posted.  Oops. Sorry!  Whatever you do, do not judge me by my photography skills, but by my easy to follow instructions 😉  I usually don’t pair veggies with pork roast (usually pork butt or … keep reading

Stove Top Popcorn

Essential Oil Diffuser Recipes

I love aromatherapy.  Some day, when time permits and I am ready to go back to “school,” I shall pursue my dream of being a certified aromatherapist.  Essential oils are amazing.  They have been around for hundreds of years and practiced before common medicine was invented.  I love my diffuser and will share recipes that I use or try out here.  Please remember that it may not work for you.  Some oils are not kid safe, animal safe or pregnant woman safe. This doesn’t mean they are dangerous, they are just very potent and should be avoided in some instances.  Be wary of finding all answers online.  Make sure it’s a reputable source. I use a lot of Plant Therapy oils, as they are my favorite for the price and quality.  If and when I have questions I ask their staff and I suggest you do too.  They have a few certified aromatherapists on staff that are really knowledgeable.  ps. I am not being compensated in any way by stating my opinion of Plant Therapy.  It’s a pure Ms Jme review 😉  (which is true in all cases! I can’t be bribed! Not even with chocolate…but you can try. ha! )

My diffuser is no longer available on Amazon, but there are thousands to choose from.  Read reviews first.  I prefer the Lagute brand, as they are cheaper and seem to be working well for me.
Diffusers available on Amazon.com

Equal blend of Lemon and Peppermint Essential Oils make a fantastic headache relief recipe. It also keeps me focused and helps kill germs in the air.
3 drops Grapefruit, 3 drops Ginger and 5 drops of Orange This is my favorite work blend. Keeps me focused and awake. I have noticed some appetite suppression.
I love this minty sweet mix. I put 3-4 drops Peppermint and 5-6 Grapefruit. This is also great for focus.

Crockpot BBQ Chicken

BBQ Chicken that’s easy, low cal and delicious! 3 chicken boneless breasts, 1 can chicken broth, 2 cups water, cook all day (on low for 6-8 hours) then pour out juice and shred chicken (it falls apart). Add 4-6 tbs BBQ and enjoy! Tastes awesome without the BBQ too. Serves 4-6.
