This has to be the most simple scone recipe I have ever tried, and the outcome was delicious fluffy scones! You need a sourdough starter, so if you don’t have one, you will need to make one.

Do you take time out regularly?

Do you know how your mindset influences your health?

Tights hips causing lower back pain?
How are you this Monday? Unless you have a specific injury or bulging disc, most back pain doesn’t come from problems in the back. It can be referred pain, tight hips, or weak abdominal muscles. Tight hips, weak butt and abdominal muscles are often a contributing factor of bulging discs (if it’s not been a specific […]
