I LOVE my new seasonal tree.
Actually it was in a Christmas catalog, but I have been looking for something with lights that I could keep up
throughout the year.

Our New Barn...In Progress.........
Our new barn is up here at 4 Arrows Farm.....
We are just waiting for the roof and some doors......
Tack room.....We are currently looking for a chandelier to put in here for the lighting...
CC and I are gonna be "Fancy" farm girls...
Two smaller stalls....
Three bigger stalls......
I love how Scott put the clear "stuff" above the stalls to allow more light into the stalls and barn..
clear "stuff"...
Tack room window....
We figured while we were at it we would hit the chicken coop and the smaller barn too.....
SUGARRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
OK here it is!
I've gone without sugar for 3 weeks...
Week 1......
I did ok. I didn't eat cookies, cake, muffins, bread, or put sugar in my coffee...
Week 2.....
I started to question myself.....I only juiced and ate veggies and salads...
End of Week 2......
I cried!!!!
Week 3
I came out on top feeling great.
The biggest changes are...
When I go to bed, I sleep allllllllllll night long.
No more restless legs
I wake up with out my joints feeling hot, swollen, and achy
I don't have the "Lay down and die sleepy" feeling in the afternoon
I lost 6 lbs.
I also have to mention that alot of my improvements have come from the fact that I no longer have
caffeine in my diet!
I am eating more fruits and veggies, juicing alot, and eating whatever I can in raw form.
I say all of this to tell you..... this is my new favorite blog....
I was able to eat some really yummy food thanks to her recipes
Like the one above!
I did stay away from honey, maple syrup, and other natural sweeteners for the 3 weeks
I only use natural sweeteners now, even in my canning.
Don't be surprised to see ALOT of sweets being posted in the next couple of months.....
I do still cook for an army and none of them are going off sugar anytime too soon!!
Sour Cream and Onion Kale Chips
Kale chips seem to be all the rage right now, and I've been up to my eyeballs in Kale!
So, after freezing it, sauteing it, eating it raw, putting it in smoothies, and juicing it,
I finally caved in and made these!
You WON'T be sorry!
Enjoy
:)
