Yes, I admit it, I am in love with Geranium Essential Oil.

Like most essential oils, Geranium has a long list of healing properties.

Finally Get Fit Challenge



Need to get fit? Need to be healthier? Have you started and stopped, tried and failed?

Join me and together I know we can all FINALLY GET FIT!

I am not a doctor or a personal trainer, I have only a little background in personal fitness. This plan is to motivate me and hopefully you, a way to share the journey to fitness with others, a way for us to encourage and help each other.

There is no age limit, anyone can do this! Yes I know we are busy, and I know how hard it can be to make wellness an important part of our lives. That's why we need to do it. I have been working out off and on most of my adult life. I have always found that once I establish a routine it gets a bit easier. And once I start to see results it gets easier. We will concentrate on fitness and wellness. If weight loss is a part of that then this will be great for you but even if you are at a healthy weight you still need to focus on being healthy and fit. We all need to tone and tighten our bodies, improve our cardiovascular systems, boost our immune systems.

Skinny Pumpkin Nog Shake

One of my favorite Christmas treats is Eggnog plus I love everything pumpkin. But I am also trying to somewhat watch calories. Good news, this only has about 120 calories per serving so its definitely a winner for me.

I found this recipe at I Heart Naptime, there is also a recipe for Eggnog Cookies and a link for a $1.00 of coupon for the Eggnog she used so be sure to check it out.

I love the way she used graham cracker crumbs on the rim of the glasses. ♥
