Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Hello Monday. Today my week starts off to a great start, as I am guest posting on one of my favorite blogs, Delia Creates. She is running my crayon melt tutorial, and I couldn’t be happier! I’ve followed her blog from the very beginning… she and I started our blogs at about the same time, and watching her blog grow and evolve has given me plenty of inspiration to put my heart into my own blog as well. Not to mention she is a fabulous photographer and her crafting and recipes feed the artsy and cozy side of my soul. …

Grape Jelly Time

Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Around here in SC we are wrapping up grape picking season. You have another week or so to get yourself (and your kids!) out there picking the lovely muscadine grapes that are growing right on the vine. After you come home with them, you’ll want to be sure to make the easiest jelly on earth out of ’em. This is my favorite preserve to make, because there is no hulling, cutting, dicing, getting the seeds out, milling, peeling, etc… that comes along with strawberry jelly, apple jelly, cherry, etc. I guess it’s about equal to making my other favorite preserve, …

Recipe: Organic Marinara Sauce from your backyard

Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Well, not exactly from *my* backyard… more like from my local farmer’s backyard. As you all know, the tomatoes in my own yard didn’t take off much this year. We had a lovely crop (and it’s still coming!) which gave us enough tomatoes for fresh salads and straight eating this summer, but not enough of a crop for me to can them into sauce. Knowing this, my hubby came home one night after work with three huge baskets full of local fresh tomatoes from John’s Island… Now if you are smarter than me, you will not begin to make …

Lessons from my kids… Intention

Positive Parenting / By Laura Koniver, MD

For some reason, my kids decided one day that they wanted to cook dinner for us. They’ve never cooked anything before… and they didn’t want me in the room AT ALL. Yikes! Stoves! Ovens! Knives! But I said yes, trusting that they would come to me for help if they needed anything, anything at all, and knowing I would be listening intently from the next room. I started giving them kid-friendly cook books and ideas, which they promptly rejected, grabbing instead all of my adult cookbooks and running off to plan. Wouldn’t even tell me what they were making, …

Thoughts On Health… Microwaving

Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

This post could also be called Part Two of the post I wrote explaining the recent findings of cell phones disturbing brain metabolism. What do cell phones and the microwave have in common? Let me start at the beginning. We don’t use a microwave at all. We haven’t in several years… and yes, I understand that microwaving uses non-ionizing radiation, just like the non-ionizing radiation in light, TV, radio waves, etc… Most folks feel okay using a microwave once they figure out that it is not the same as the ionizing radiation in X-rays, nuclear radiation, etc… For us, it’s …

Strawberry Syrup Recipe… and Come to Earth Fest this Saturday and say Hi!

Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Have you had enough of strawberries yet? I just about have, but I had to share this idea I had with you. This recipe today is sooooo simple, if you have one thing: a juicer. I made this recipe up after looking at a bunch of on-line recipes. I wanted to create a strawberry syrup to use in strawberry daiquiris this summer… and to drizzle into pancake batter, cake batter, icing, drizzle onto crepes, and use in milkshakes! I haven’t found an organic strawberry syrup that I loved to use in milkshakes for my kids, so with a billion …
