Cooking with doTERRA Essential Oils - Preparing your oils
doTERRA Essential Oils are a
fantastic addition to your kitchen!
fantastic addition to your kitchen!
Due to the intense strength, purity and potency of doTERRA's Oils they can taste amazing in your favorite meals.
I love to have my favorites on hand ready to go for any recipe.
Here is what I do:
I will take a 2 oz Amber Glass Bottle with a dropper and fill it, just to the base of the neck of the bottle, with a high quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
Then I add 10-15 drops of doTERRA Essential Oil to the bottle and shake to mix the Oils. I store these on my counter, away from direct light and heat. They are ready for use.
I use them in any recipe to replace the
herb or seasoning called for.
General rule of thumb:
1 teaspoon herb/seasoning = 1 dropper of the pre-mixed oil
or
1-2 drops of the raw, pure doterra Essential Oil from the bottle.
This is a great way to use your doTERRA oils without over using them.
Some of my favorite oils are: Basil, Lemon, Wild Orange, Peppermint, Oregano, Rosemary, Lime and Ginger....

Disinfecting Wipes
DIY- Disinfecting Wipes
If you love Clorox wipes but don't like the harsh and
dangerous chemicals that they are laden with.....
You're going to LOVE this!
With just a few simple ingredients you can make
your own Disinfecting Wipes.
I use these on granite, stainless steel, in the bathrooms
and in the kitchen!
Step 1: Cut a roll of Paper Towels in half and
remove the card board center.
Step 2: Place the paper towel roll in a plastic container. I like using one with a screw on lid. I found mine at Dollar Tree. But any plastic container with a lid will work.
2 Tablespoons doTERRA's On Guard Cleaning Concentrate
and 3//4 cup water.
Mix together well.
Add 4 drops doTERRA Oregano Essential Oil and
4 drops doTERRA Lemon
Essential Oil.
(Purchase Oregano, Lemon
Essential Oil and
On Gurard Cleaning Concentrate Here.)
Step 4: Pour combined liquids over paper towels and allow to soak in. You may need to rotate the container (with the lid on) to roll and distribute the entire amount to evenly cover all paper towels.
Yeah!!!! You Did IT!
Now Pat yourself on the back and enjoy them......
I use mine within 3-4 weeks. I love them and I love the clean smell! But mostly I LOVE that they are safe and I can use them without worry!!!!!!
Are you interested in why Oregano and Lemon Essential Oils
are good for cleaning....

ATLF Surgery
ATLF Reconstruction of My Left Ankle
My Left Ankle was damaged badly in the car accident. All efforts were made to avoid surgery but failed. My Neurosurgeon instructed that I must have the foot surgery
before we were to do my back fusion.
I am kind of weird in the fact that prior to any surgery I watched videos and read everything I could.
I needed to know what to expect. I was expecting a challenge in recovery and I GOT one.
This was a VERY long recovery process.
The surgery consisted of 6 holes drilled into my bones at different angles around my ankle as well as about a 4 inch incision on the outside of my foot/ankle.
Here is how pub med describes the process...
Grade III is a complete tear. Severe pain and tenderness, inability to
bear weight,
and significant joint instability are noted.
Post- Op Cast Removal
I was in the cast for a total of 6 weeks. I was not allowed to bear any weight and could not be on crutches for the fact of surgery on my left shoulder the same day of the ATLF Reconstruction.
