I am the accidental hippie.  Not the traditional 1960’s kind of hippie, but the new age 2015 type of hippie.  I’m a daughter, a wife, and a full-time working mommy.  I never thought I would be making my own baby food or lotions, but here I am…in a perpetual cloud of lavender and patchouli oil scent.  I love my new found love for all things natural and toxic free.  The road to discovery was sometimes painful and always challenging, but I always faced it head on and with sheer determination.  Throughout my journey I discovered a lot about myself and my love of this way of life.  I get excited to try new recipes, new cleaning products and homeopathic cures.  I love the smell of fresh cut grass and the smell of my daughters bedroom.  I eat as healthy as I can…but let’s face it…I am human!  I try and feed my family clean foods…but let’s face it…I am human!  I’m not perfect, nor do I claim to be, I have made mistakes and I have cried.  Life is a journey and I like to think that I have finally found my path and this is my journey down that path.  This is the journey of the accidental hippie.
