DIY Foot Lotion for Cracked Heels

I don't suffer from cracked heels in the winter

because I am constantly wearing socks but when

summer rolls around my heels look horrible.

I've tried lotions, I've tried putting on petroleum jelly

and socks at night but nothing works.

How about we give this a try together?

What you'll need:

1c solid coconut oil

1/2c aloe vera gel

20 drops lavender essential oil

( I recommend the NOW brand)

20 drops peppermint essential oil

(again I would use the NOW brand)

Create:

Add all ingredients to a stand mixer or bowl

(in listed order).

Whip ingredients together using the

stand mixer or a hand mixer.

Blend for a couple of minutes.

You will know it is done when the cream is bright white

and has a fluffy, light consistency.

Keep in airtight container

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
