March comes in like a lion.! ~

Snow Storm in the City
March is coming in like a lion ..
as the saying goes.
The snow is just beautiful ..
but then again, I am one of the lucky ones
that does not have to commute to work.

Thought I would share this site, sent to me by Greg Lynch,
a SunRose Customer, who wrote an article on 'Solar Cooking'.

A review on our Ageless Elixir:

I just wanted to say a word or two or three about SunRose Ageless Elixir Formula. I am a 56 year old woman and a natural red head. Needless to say I have very sensitive skin and it's close to impossible to find a facemoisturizer that doesn't have some kind of acid in it.

I'm convinced that it's the acid in all the moisturizers now-a-days is part and parcel of the increase in melanoma but that's another story.

I love Ageless Elixir, it doesn't sting, and it absorbs immediately.
I am continually complimented on my skin tone and color so
thought I'd pass on the night-time routine that works for me.

When I take a shower I wait till my skin is soft from the steam
and then I exfoliate with SunRose Apricot Kernel Meal.

When I get out of the shower I then spritz with SunRose Frankincense Hydrosol.

Once that's dry I put on my SunRose Ageless Elixir Facial Formula.
The next morning when I wake up TA-DA I'm gorgeous.

Thank you Rosanne for making such great products!!!!!!!!!!

March comes in like a lion,
and goes out like a lamb.

Until then,

Celebrating Spring - New Give-A-Way.!

Though it is still a bit brisk out, I can just feel Spring in the air. My garden is calling to me and I am excited about planning what herbs, veggies and flowers will be planted this year.!

Let's Celebrate Spring ... time for rebirth. The length of daylight rapidly increases, and the hemisphere begins to warm significantly causing new plant growth to 'spring forth' giving the season its name. According to the astronomical definition, Spring begins on the Vernal Equinox (Usually March 20th in the North Hemisphere).

This is such a beautiful season .. the 'new green' on the trees, all the flowers peaking thru the ground .. Mother Nature birthing forth.!

Quotes for Spring ::
'In the spring, at the end of the day,
you should smell like dirt.'
- - Margaret Atwood

'Indoors or out, no one relaxes in March,
that month of wind and taxes,
the wind will presently disappear,
the taxes last us all the year.'
- - Ogden Nash

'And Spring arose on the garden fair,
Like the Spirit of Love .. felt everywhere;
And each flower and herb on Earth's dark breast
rose from the dreams of its wintry rest.'
- - Percy Bysshe Shelley, 'The Sensitive Plant'

Labor Day ~ End of Summer ~!

The weekend is winding down .. the weather has truly been glorious.
My garden is wild .. for lack of a better term, and I know soon it will settle down into the 'Autumn' look. The colors changing .. this is such a visual season for me ..!!

This week, has been a political bonanza to say the least.
The Democratic nomination of Mr Obama was history in the making.
Then we have the Republican rebuttal with Ms. Palin ..

My dearest and oldest friend Kat and I were on the phone ranting and raving watching history unfold on TV ...

Though I know a lot of people are over saturated with all the political hoopla, if you are interested in an honest and refreshing view point, please visit a friend of mine's blog Ms Sarah Campbell over at the Herbs from the Labyrinth Blog and read:: Two messages from Starhawk at the Republican National Convention.

Then, for this month's reading from Kat, check out her RockTarot.com
Be sure to read her 'goddess speak' column on the right hand side of the page,as New Yorkers .. 9/11 has not been forgotten. We have friends and family members that are still healing from that horrific day.

Speaking of which .. I have been watching some movies that really were an eye opener.
'Stop Loss' and 'Kite Runner' .. two very moving and intense movies. I am not into watching war movies or anything violent. However, these are stories that need to be heard.

For some really beautiful photography of nature .. my friend Sue over at Farm at Coventry Blog is a visual explosion of beauty!
