Keeping It interesting!

With Hubby being gone 5 and ½ days out of the week and with him always being tired it is hard sometimes to even get in the mood. It ends up being we get into bed kiss and before we know it we are asleep. So because of his exhaustion, I try to keep him entertained! ;)  I have spoken to other women who feel the same way as I do, “IF I don’t feel sexy, he’s not getting any”.  Honestly though like most women we try to make our husbands happy (and in a full consenting way) we still do it and not enjoy it.
Oh and that's my cat Chewy! He was too lazy to move. 
That is why keep things interesting is so important! Listen ladies, most men do not care what sexy outfit you have on. They see the sexy outfit and think “YES! She is gonna get naked!!!” One thing I love to do to keep things interesting is to buy lingerie. I purchased this piece from  https://www.3wishes.com.. The reason I like to buy lingerie is because of how it makes me feel. My husband says “it’s a floor decoration” , but  I digress. When I put this outfit on it made me feel sexy and that definitely is a mood booster. Another thing I really liked about this piece is that it was easily concealed under my sweatpants and t-shit. Half the fun is the surprise!!! It was a great piece that hubby says we will use again!

I do have some tips if you do decide to go this route.
  1. Remember the outfit is for you not him!
  2. Never put lingerie in dryer! (NEVER! Seriously the underwire is not designed in pieces like this for you to wear all day. You will break it and the unwire will poke you)
  3. Also sites like 3wishes.com, offer all kinds of products. I Like a babydoll because I am self-conscious about my belly. You may want a long teddy because you feel more comfortable.  Buy what you look good in!
  4. It is okay to take his taste into consideration! With the piece I got, I got the type of underwear he likes. Its for you, but he should enjoy it too.

For my sensitive teeth peep!



So after my post yesterday (you can view here), one of my friends said that they could not eat lemons because of their sensitive teeth. Here are some other things you can do that are preventive medicine that work as well as the lemon water!

Broccoli:
 So when I am getting sick I make this side dish. It is a big hit and its a big immune booster. Broccoli has more vitamin C than orange juice and this recipe is delish and keeps you well.

1 head of broccoli
3 cloves of garlic (at least I love garlic so the more the better but not everyone feels that way)
2 tablespoons of pepper.
half a stick of butter (a whole stick if you are like me and Mrs. Paula Dean).
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 table spoons of balsamic vinegar
1 tbs of rosemary
1 tbs basil
1 tbs thyme
 Cook your broccoli 3 quarters of the way melt butter and mix in vinegar garlic and oil and spices. Add it to the butter sauce and let it finish cooking.
This site will help everyone find alternatives.  It also contains info on broccoli so you know I am not just bsing you! If you can eat this at least once a day for three days it will do you a lot of good. More if you can stomach it.

I will not be a snot face!


(via google)
I noticed yesterday that I was getting sick. Luckily my mother and sister taught me all kinds of home remedies growing up.  I will admit it is not always fun and sometimes it taste or feels gross while it is happening. Here some of the recipes I used last night to drain out my infection. This particular regimen is to prevent a cold/flu. These are consider all natural. However use at your own risk be careful. I will also be posting some sources with my recipes. This is more preventative medicine and works best at the first signs of sickness. It also makes them less gross and not as terrible.


Honey and Cinnamon:
Seriously just mix about two table spoons of honey and one of cinnamon. Three times a day at least. Once again it should be at the first sign of sickness. It is very soothing  on your throat. According to Medical News Today " Cinnamon can be used to help treat muscle spasms, vomiting, diarrhea. loss of appetite". I used it yesterday to prevent a cold. It's been hot, humid, and raining nonstop.  Honey is great because according to WebMD, honey has antibacterial properties, anti-inflammatory properties, and it is a cough suppressant. Another really awesome idea is to put it into a milky tea. I did that last night and this morning. And it felt amazing.



Lemon water
So I am going to be honest and say that lemon water is disgusting. You must prepare the water like tea (in other words make sure it is hot!) . So I usually drink an Earl Grey tea. It goes perfect with just lemon. It doesn't have to be Earl Grey however you want a tea that allows you to put in at least 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Drink it at let once in the morning and once in the evening. I know its gross after awhile but try to get three tablespoons into your tea if you can't something is better than nothing.  According to Organicfacts.net, "Lemons contain vitamins B6, C, A, and E. They also have iron, magnesium, and calcium, zinc, and protein." That isn't even all the things lemons can do. Actually it doesn't even scratch the surface.

Preventative Steam Pot
 Alright listen carefully, this is not a steam pot if you are already sick. It will not be strong enough to drain all of the infection out of your face. In a pot fill about 1/4 of the way with water, add four-six drops of Eucalyptus oil, 2 table spoons of lemon 1 cup of apple cider vinegar, take something spicy ( I use peppers you can use hot sauce) and do about 5 table spoons hot sauce or if you are using spices, if you are using fresh spicy peppers ( I used jalapenos yesterday) do about  1/4 cup. I also added a table spoon of fresh ginger. Add a little bit more water. Pot should not be more than halfway full. Bring it to a boil and let the snot (yes snot) drain from your nose. You will probably cough up mucus as well. It will take about an hour but you will feel better. Not during but afterwards. Remember to cover your head and inhale the steam slowly. Also come up for air! Apple cider vinegar helps with detox, clears sinuses, and helps with sore throat. (mamaovation.com), peppers contain vitamin C and also help drain the sinuses (WebMD), Eucalyptus is a anti-inflammatory, decongestant,  and also is antibacterial. I also rub it on my temples throat and lungs and under my nose (organicfacts.net).
