Odd$ and End$ and Re-Design Launch

I have had a busy week with some summer family commitments. Summer is flying by and I want to make sure we savor it as much as possible. With the temps hovering at 92+ degrees, we are trying to find indoor activities during that sticky 11 am - 3 pm time period. I don't handle the blazing sun too well.

Have you seen my new redesign? It is up and running. Aside from a glitch that a reader told me about, I am very pleased. Thank you to everyone for all of your kind words through comments and emails. I appreciate it.

FBS is now on Facebook. Please check it out and become a fan.

Some interesting articles this week:

• DIY Fruit and Vegetable Wash at Go Graham Go. Great tip and one that I will start using on our non-organic fruit and vegetables.
  


• Katie at Kitchen Stewardship wrote a comprehensive post: Natural Sunscreen Review - Do Mineral-Based Sunblocks Work? I am very fair and so is one of my daughters, although we all wear sunscreen. I have always used Coppertone, ever since I was a kid, but now I am going to rethink what we need to use.


• Herbal lemonade at Real Food 365. Skip the Countrytime and go for the gusto.
