Friday, August 31, 2012. How this all got started. I swear my husband would live on Ramen Noodles, beer, and cereal if not for my preparation to get some fresh. Foods into his body! And then last year, spring of 2011, I saw these two videos: The Story of Stuff. And The Story of Cosmetics. Both produced by The Story of Stuff Project. The Story of Stuff discusses the extraction, production, distribution, consumption, and disposal of products and how it all affects societies, economies, THE PLANET (! My Gar...

Healthy by Meg: The Genetically Modified Issue
http://www.healthybymeg.com/2013/03/the-genetically-modified-issue.html

Healthy by Meg: Homemade Laundry Detergent
http://www.healthybymeg.com/2013/02/homemade-laundry-detergent.html
