Healthy Breakfast Cereal, 8 Free Recipes, Better Easter Basket Ideas, Help for Digestive Problems, and More in Today’s Monday Morning Mix-Up 4/7/2014

Good morning everyone!  Let's see what juicy info I can find for you today…

• I've been trying to get Kent to eat a better breakfast before heading out to church/work in the mornings, but he's a freak about leaving on time to get things set up.  (He's been the sacristan at daily Mass for years.)  Before we switched over to real food 10 years ago, we basically ate rotten breakfast cereals every day.  (Find my posts all about breakfast cereals here — why they're bad, what to eat instead, etc.)  The other day he said, “Isn't there any cereal that's okay?”  So I ordered this sprouted breakfast cereal.  It's cheaper there than at our local health food store, but still pretty expensive.  I think I'll pull the recipe back out for homemade breakfast cereal and see how that goes.  Click here for all my breakfast ideas and recipes in one spot.

• Youza, I can't believe it's been ten years now since I started learning about real food!  Read how it all happened here.

• Remember I told you about Jenny's new almost-released Nourished Kitchen book?  Here's my review:  It's not a cookbook, it's a work of art!

• Wonder about the Common Core Curriculum or how it might affect homeschoolers?  That's a new homeschooling post I just put up.  Check it out and let me know what you think.

• Have you read this post from Sarah:  When silence is the best policy at the pediatrician's office.

• If you suffer from digestive problems, if you're tired of running out of restaurants in a panic and dealing with the discomfort or embarrassment, or the fear of being too far from a bathroom, and all of the other issues related to digestive ailments, you'll want to look into this online digestion class.

• Wow, check out what this UCLA hospital is implementing:  UCLA hospitals serve antibiotic-free meat in fight against superbugs.

• Easter is right around the corner, does anyone want to share their ideas for what put in Easter baskets?  Here are my best tips:

1. Unjunked candy or other candy I might find at the local health food store.
2. Prayer cards, saint cards, a little pocket cross or something special like that from the Catholic store or Christian book store.
3. Check out this huge list of NOT candy ideas from another blogger and another good list from Mama Natural that just came in as I was writing this post!
4. Or here are more ideas from a Facebook post last year.

• What about this one from last week, my post about when you are stressed out to the point of tears.  Been there!

• Anyone having rotator cuff problems?  You'll want to check out this conversation on Facebook.

• The other day our 12 year old daughter, who loves watching Pioneer Woman on Food Network, asked if she could read the love story Ree wrote about when she met her husband.  I started reading it and decided to let her get it for the Kindle, it's such a cute story and thankfully it's G-rated:  Black Heels to Tractor Wheels.
