I am the SIMPLE Life Mom.For those of you who don’t know, one of the major reasons I started this website is because I needed to gather my research and knowledge into one place. Not only that, but I wanted to compile it for my children to use in the future. I want them to […]
This party mix is totally amazing! It is so delicious and can be made within minutes. Now, this is in NO way real food….not even close…not nourishing or anything of the like due to the amount of sugar.. BUT, you can make this organic/non GMO very easily!! I never claimed that we don’t eat […]
Got any old pillowcases around? I have a large closet that sits over our porch. I don’t think it has insulation, because it gets extremely cold in the winter time. I decided to make a few door stoppers to help keep my bedroom warm. The great news is, this DIY Door Draft Stopper project is […]

The title: Do I Need to Filter my Water and Berkey Giveaway kind of answers the question already. But lets really look into the Question: Do I need to filter my water? If this question was asked 20 years ago you would have a few people tell you that you can if you want to, […]
We will often get Kettle Corn at fairs and parks in the Summer, or at get-togethers during the winter. There’s no way I would buy the microwavable bags of popcorn after it came out that not only were some of the ingredients bad, but that the actual lining of the bags were causing factory workers […]
We love apple cider! My one son always asks for it once he starts seeing it in the store. I actually wanted to buy some the other day for a class I was teaching. We were having a “Redwall Feast” and needed some good apple cider (Redwall is a great book to read with your […]

These are seriously the Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars that I’ve ever tried. They are soft, buttery, and chocolaty all at the same time…seriously dangerous! I’ll admit it. I love a fresh chocolate chip cookie straight out of the oven. I would take that over pretty much any dessert you could name. So when I […]
I put this invigorating massage oil recipe together as an anytime use…well, unless you’re wanting to fall asleep right away. It has essential oils in it that will wake you up and get you going. It’s great for when you jump out of the shower and want to kick start your day, when you’re in […]
Some might be thinking it’s early to be thinking about 11 homemade Christmas gift set ideas, but it isn’t if you make all of those gifts yourself. A lot of us who make gifts have to plan ahead for production time, curing stages, or steeping times. I have been teaching a class at our home […]
