Welcome to The Pink Lily Pad and Two Tadpoles
I attempt natural living using herbs and essential oils to the best of my ability. My garden grows many of the plants I like to use for homemade remedies. I have a strong love for the power of essential oils.
My blog started from the voluminous amount of time I seemed to spend in the kitchen.

We express gratitude for the fruits of our labor, and then we prune back the stagnant growth. It is a powerful time to find answers with journaling. Use these essential…
