Several years ago my husband came home with this crazy idea: let’s juice our foods! I honestly thought he was nuts, but I humored him. We picked up a cheap Oster juicer at the store just to try it out. He would come up with these concoctions and try to get me to try them, [...]
One of the hardest parts of transitioning to a mostly natural, whole-foods diet for my family last year was giving up frozen pizza. JD is an extremely picky eater, and cheese pizza was a staple for him. Frozen pizzas made nights when I was too tired to cook or we were in a hurry a [...]

Today I want to share with you one of our other favorite drinks in the KnowitAll house: Water Kefir. I first stumbled upon water kefir back when I was researching ways to make homemade healthy [...]
First I want to apologize to everyone for the unscheduled break in the 31 Days series. The KnowitAll homestead has struggled the last few days with technical issues with our Internet and I’ve been unable to get posts up.

Let’s face it: sugar tastes GOOD. From the day we are born, we are hardwired to prefer sweet foods. But for many of us, this gets way out of hand. We no longer crave only the good sweet foods like fruits, but we crave desserts, candy, sodas and more–all day long. I’ll admit, I [...]
