Ahhh, Valentines Is Here!
You know what I love about today? It’s like a burst of kefir soda pop that sprays us all with a little extra light and sweetness. A thoughtful compliment, a thorough zerberting of all bellies under 10, and an extra glass of [insert your fave drink here] and BAM! Extra warm, gooey, February love. That’s what I think, anyway.
Katie and I are gonna get going with the doilies, glitter and about 35 layers of Elmer’s glue in just a sec, but first we have a humble homemade valentine for you. Well, not all of you because Katie refused to lick that many stamps. But I do have two jars of homemade lotion all-packed up and ready to go.
Want one?
Good! Just leave a comment saying . . . well, anything! Winner will be announced tomorrow!

Happy Valentine’s Day! If this is the lotion you made a while back with a video, I made it for my Grandma for Christmas, but would enjoy receiving some of my own!
If it isn’t that, I would still love to get some, since I need to make some, sorta soon, anyway.
Happy Valentine’s Day ladies!

Happy Valentine’s Day to you and your family! Although we are not GAPsters, we do eat real food. I made my family crepes with real butter and eggs from a local farm, and filled them with homemade “nutella”. So delicious!

Happy Saint Valentines Day! =) XOXO In Love with your website!!!
How sweet! Love reading your blog. Happy Valentine’s Day to you all too! I have a question, since I’m leaving a comment — since having my 2nd baby 3 months ago, I’ve discovered I’ve developed a sensitivity to eggs – a food I’ve loved ALL my life. I’m aware and pretty familiar with GAPS, but as I’m nursing I’m not sure if this is the right way to go right now (I know I could do full GAPS while nursing), but I’m just wondering if there’s another way to get over this egg sensitivity. What do you think?? I also noticed that I think he might have eczema on his arms. I’ve never dealt with this before so I’m just trying to figure out how to proceed {calmly}. Thanks for any advice!
Meghan, I feel your pain. My four month old has sensitivities to ALL dairy and grains. She gets horrible rashes on her bottom along with the allergy circle on her bottom and shes screams in pain for days…sometimes a week if I sneak any in. I’m also breastfeeding and well, sorry to say I think we have to suffer through it. Atleast the intro diet is only thirty days and then you can start to introduce the other foods back. It has been working so well for Maddie with her allergies. Just keep on plugging along with the diet and realize it isn’t forever. You have a whole group of people here to support you and vent to. Good Luck…
I’m not qualified to give dietary or medical advice, but as a mom I’d say full GAPS is your best bet (avoiding eggs, of course, which would be hard!). Healing will be slower since you can’t do intro, but drinking lots and LOTS of broth can help a lot with healing. People often skip that part of full GAPS
If you decide to do it LMK. I have a friend who can’t eat eggs because of her daughter’s eczema (she’s nursing). I could probably get some good recipe recommendations for you.
happy valentines! I would love some lotion if you would send it to canada.
Happy Valentine’s Day =D
kefier soda pop….gonna have to try that one
Happy Valentine’s Day!! I love your blog!!
Well, win or not…I do want to try this recipe out! (Anyone know if it still turns out lotion if you use a blender rather than a food processor?). Happy Valentine’s Day!
Yes Jaime, it does
Great giveaway! My hands get ridiculously dry and cracked. It’s tough finding a lotion that works.
EEEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Valentines day to me???

Happy Valentines Day! Could really use that lotion on my dishpan hands from washing all the dishes tonight for our special dinner!
Happy Valentine’s Day to all
Happy Valentine’s Day! Or, as my teenage daughter says “Happy Single Awareness Day”. She is too old for zerberts but someday, when she stops celebrating Single Awareness Day she will give me some grandbabies to zerbert.
Lotion would be nice in the mean time.
Loving your blog…and love your baby book….feeding baby #6 very different than the other 5!
As always, I enjoy the posts. Hope your family has a wonerful Valentine’s Day!

Your lotion recipe looks wonderful. I would be so happy to win. We’ve been on the GAPS Diet for almost six months, and I am still trying to find new shampoos, lotions, etc. You have a terrific site! Love that you write about real food, and even GAPS! I am printing out your traveling with GAPS article. It has some really great tips
I’ve been thinking about making homemade lotion!
Hope you had a good time making crafts!
