Meatloaf, it’s what’s for dinner
Meatloaf traditionally is made in a bread pan but when you are
feeding a family of 8 it just takes to many bread pans to complete a
meal. So when I have a bunch of mouths to feed I make meatloaf in a cake
pan. {Note: It also cuts the baking time almost in half.}
Here is what I used. (These are guesstimates. I am one of those chefs that just throw ingredients in without measuring.)

Using Hex Codes to Design Your Website
Understanding
a little bit about Hex Codes comes in handy if you are designing your
own website, updating a free web template to better suit your needs or
if you want your business cards and promotional items to exactly match
your website.
What exactly is a hex code? Well, when you went to school and learned math, the system you learned was the decimal system or base 10. In base 10 we use the numbers 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9........look familiar?
Computers on the other hand use a different system called the hexidecimal system or base 16. Because we don't have symbols to represent 10-11-12 etc we use letters to represent those numbers. 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-A-B-C-D-E-F
So what does that have to do with colors? Well, I'll tell ya. Computers see colors in RGB (Red, Green, Blue), each of those can have a value from 0 to 255, with 0 being the absence of color, 255 being full color.
Example: Red = 255-0-0
Green = 0-255-0
Blue = 0-0-255
Here is a chart showing the hexidecimal..................

Oil Pulling: A Natural Detox for Health
Oil pulling… um, what?
That was pretty much my reaction when I first heard about oil pulling. Someone in one of my doTERRA groups had posted asking if oil pulling could be considered as a natural alternative for mouth wash. Feeling a bit stupid for asking I commented asking what oil pulling was. I read the article they suggested, then Googled it and read more articles. I couldn't wait to try it. Luckily I use unrefined coconut oil for everything so I had a jar already.I must say, it's wasn't as easy or fun as they made it sound. The oil felt funny in my mouth, I couldn't seem to suppress the urge to swallow, my jaw and cheeks hurt from trying to swish for 20 minutes and my kids kept asking me questions that I couldn't answer because I had a mouth full of oil. After I spit, rinsed and brushed my teeth I was amazed at how clean my mouth felt. That was enough motivation for me to do it again.
I like to flavor my oil pulling with doTERRA's oils. I have tried Wild Orange, Peppermint, Lemon and On Guard. (I doubt I will do the On Guard again unless I have a sore in my mouth because it was to much for me.) Most of the time I stick two peppermint beadlets in the...........
