  1. Are you speaking of eggs or actual chicken? My brother is starting to raise natural/organic heirloom chickens for our families to eat (he already has egg layers) and after we pay for the chicks and their feed for 12 weeks it will cost us around $6.50-$7.00 per chicken. This is roughly half the price we would pay for a comparable organic chicken at the grocery store or local farmer. Yes it is still a lot of money BUT we will know exactly what they are eating, how they have been raised, and where they came from, etc. Even if an item you purchase says "organic" you still don't know the who, what, where, when, and why about it.
  2. OMG! I LOVE that stuff! Send it to me because I am out :D. My family makes fun of it and calls it deodorant because of the color and consistency. I made some homemade the other day and although it was good it wasn't as good as the Artisana. I eat it straight off of the spoon.
  3. :iagree:. Mine are normally late turners. Find a chiropractor that specializes in the Webster Maneuver. I found one that had actually studied under Dr Webster. My last baby was breech until 39+ weeks. I went to the chiro several times a week for about a month. The baby flipped thank goodness because I was refusing to have a scheduled c-section simply because I had a baby in the Frank breech position.
  4. Have you tried looking here: http://www.localharvest.org/ . You might be able to find local items here. I live across the country from you but there has to be a location for you to find local eggs, produce, etc. Good luck. I came back to add that I pay approx $4.25 a dozen for organic eggs from the grocery store that I really don't know where they came from or $4.00 a dozen from a local farmer.
  5. There is the argument that sweeteners are sweeteners no matter what source it comes from but I personally think local honey, real maple syrup, coconut sugar, and maple sugar are better than the white sugar alternative.
  6. I voted Kate. I am from a long line of Catherines. My great grandmother's aunt was Catherine but called Kit. I am Catherine Noele. I go by Kate to those I do not know well and online. My family and close friends call me Noele. No offense to anyone but I do not like it when someone calls me Cathy.
  7. Ours did too last year and I bought their HUGE fabric cutting table. They then put in a small section of precut packaged fabric and a few notions. A couple weeks ago I went in to buy paint and they had expanded the small sewing section to include fabric on bolts and a new terribly small cutting table. I wondered if they wanted the old table back :lol:.
  8. Open. I have had it both ways and if I could choose I'd stick with open.
  9. We have in the past gotten flu shots but didn't the past couple years. I regret not getting the shot last year. All the kids were sick at Christmas and we just thought they had some knd of bug that was going around. We were supposed to spend Christmas day with my Mom and warned her the kids had not felt good but she told us to come anyway. That night I started feeling terrible and by the next day thought I'd croak. Some of the kids were still sick so we took them to the doctor and he said we had the flu and it had progressed into other illnesses (strep throat, ear infections, bronchitis). We were sick for weeks. The next week my Mom was so sick she really needed to be hospitalized but refused to go. My sister is a nurse and moved in with her for 3 weeks until she got better. Several weeks later the kids and I were all sick again and I took all the kids back to the doctor and he told us we all had a different strain of the flu! As much as I hate shots this year I plan on everyone getting it.
  10. I was finally able to get 1 order to go through but the coupon code had expired by the time it finally completed my order. So frustrating.
  11. :grouphug: I am so sorry for your loss. My sil had endometriosis and only had one working fallopian tube. She was given fertility drugs and she conceived fairly quickly and had a baby via emergency c-section. Her dr told our family that her baby making parts were such a mess and it was a miracle that she conceived and would probably never be able to get pregnant again. Just over 2 years later she had a surprise baby without any fertility drugs needed.
  12. My list grew so large that I can't even access my shopping cart any more. Stupid slow sight!
  13. :iagree: I was going to suggest the ana-white.com website. She has great plans and wonderful ideas. I plan on using some of her plans to make bookcases.
