Autumn Splendor and a Fresh Start!

I don't know about you, but I'm ready for Autumn!  It's been so hot, muggy and rainy here lately, I think I have mold behind my ears!  And these awesome earrings I made today will be perfect for your new Fall wardrobe!  I love them!  They are appropriately named "Autumn Splendor" and they are available in the shop!

So, as of yesterday, Wayne and I started the "Whole30" --- this was our lunch today...a beautiful salad, topped with salmon and a Ranch Dressing that I made from scratch!!!  It was so yummy!  I'm pretty sure this way of eating will not be hard for us.  It's really come down to not having a choice, unless we want to continue to be more and more unhealthy...and, by choosing that route, it will get to the point we won't be able to do anything about it.  So, while we still can, we are making life changes!  Stay tuned for more on that and more delicious, healthy recipes!

And this is a cute little necklace for Autumn, also!  And only $16!  I love it!

Of course, I had to leave you with a butterfly picture!  They are all over the flowers right now!  I love when they visit!  I always know it's my daddy when the Black Swallowtail shows up!

love and peace always ~ Kathy

Zen, Karma and a 25% Off Coupon Code!

When I'm out walking in the woods, I'm always amazed at what I can find by just standing still and looking around.  I feel like it's natures "gifts" to me...things most people will never see.  My little "gift" yesterday was this gorgeous "Lesser Maple Spanworm Moth" that was resting on a stick.  

 And then I found this little guy today...his wings are so tattered and torn, I could hardly believe he was still flying...but that's what life is all about.  No matter how tattered and torn you become, you just have to keep on flying.  
 
I took this as a sign from my daddy...I always think of him when I see a black butterfly.  Yesterday was the 14th anniversary of his flight to the dark side of the moon, or so he believed...and one day, I'll join him.  

And who thinks Friday the 13th is unlucky?  Just look what I found yesterday!  It's all about Karma!  Doesn't have anything to do with "luck"...or so I believe.

I have a bunch of new "Zen" bracelets in the shop!  Check em out!  These are really awesome and fun to wear.  And since they are made with elastic, you can easily pop them on and off, or pair them up with other bracelets.  You'll love them, I promise!  But, if you are undecided about which one is your favorite [like I am], use coupon code KARMA25 and get 25% off of your entire purchase!  That's right, 25% OFF!!  Just some little Karma, from me to you.  Hurry though, this coupon will expire next Friday [June 20th]...at midnight...just like Cinderella's pumpkin!

 I just couldn't end this post without sharing some cuteness ~ :)

Happy Saturday!  Love and peace always ~ Kathy

"When a BIRD is alive, it eats ants...when the bird is dead, ants eat the bird! Time and circumstances can change at any time...Lets not devalue or hurt anyone or anything in Life...We may be powerful today...But remember, TIME is more powerful, one tree makes a million match sticks.. But when time comes....only one match stick is needed to burn a million trees...lets be good and do good earthlings." ~ Karmic Saying

Mundane Monday...

"Hiding"

Found out Squirtle likes apples...until he sees a slug...

Slug...survived another day...
