Monday Mix-Up Continued… (Click here to go back to page 1.)
Here's what I've found for you this week…
- You know those nifty red button turkey timers that tell exactly when commercial factory farmed turkeys like Butterball are done cooking? Turns out you can buy a reusable stainless steel turkey timer that works the same way in your happy, healthy, pastured Thanksgiving turkey — now you have no reason to buy commercial turkeys anymore! Order it now and with Prime free shipping, you'll have it by Wednesday.
- Just say “no” to (turkeys on) drugs! If antibiotics, GMOs, and unhealthy crowded living conditions weren't enough reason to avoid factory farmed turkeys for Thanksgiving, this should do it. Find locally-raised pastured turkeys here.
Have you seen this one for Thanksgiving?! She had me at bacon, and cream, and brussels sprouts, and parmesan! Pin it here (or by clicking the picture).
- This was an interesting article on how stress changes the brain. What do YOU do to avoid stress in your life? For me, I've recently been much better at making “No” my default word. I remind myself often, “You can't try to do it all, Kel!”
- Wow guys, it really IS catching on! If you live in New York, stop by Brodo and get yourself a cup of bone broth! Read more here. Find “The Broth Bible”, Nourishing Broth here.
Did you catch all of last week’s posts? Here they are in case you missed them:
- Did Eating in Restaurants Kill My Friend? It's sad how many others may suffer the same fate…
- Thanksgiving Side Dish Recipes – Traditional Stuffing and a lot more!
- How to Get Stains Out of a White Shirt – wait 'til you see these pictures!
Have you seen this one from the archives? The Ignorance of Dr. Oz. Find out how he got me all riled up… (Please share it with the buttons below the post if you're riled up, too!)
- How is Essure still on the market? Pass this info on to any women you know who may be considering this barbaric and dangerous form of birth control! The video at that link with a statement from Bayer is such crap. “Our product has been approved by the FDA (because that makes us sooo comfortable, right?)… The problems that have been reported from Essure are known and on the product insert.” So because they knew about these problems, then it's all okay?! Be sure and read the comments over on Facebook. I'm not a fan of birth control anyway, except for the all-natural kind, but you probably could've guessed that. See my previous posts on reproductive health here. ***Please will you share this post with the buttons below to warn others? One woman on Facebook said she had planned to have this done in January!
- Here's my weekly reminder to be sure and look around my archive page if you haven't lately and/or my recipe-finder page.
Have a great week!

I had the Essure coils implanted about eight years ago BEFORE I KNEW BETTER. Fortunately the procedure went smoothly. I would prefer to not have them but then I don’t want the surgery either to remove them if I’m not having any issues. If only I could turn back time.

Hi Janice,
Wow, that’s great that you not having issues, but maybe you should get another opinion to see if they should come out in case they’re causing more problems you don’t know about? Just a thought…

Hi Kelly,
I’m sure that they’re causing some issues, but since I am finally doing better with my health,the thought of surgery scares me. Especially if the surgery causes other damage. I have been thinking about it though and I will look into it more seriously after the holidays. I would feel better if I knew some women who had the surgery to get them removed.
