A Little Something for the Foodies!!
Dr. Flower is quite honored to be among the newest blogs approved for the Foodie Blog Roll sponsored by the Left Over Queen. One of the very first tag lines in the Dr. Flower handmade soap journey was, “You are what you eat and you are also what you put on your skin!” If you are striving to be the most healthful you with a smaller carbon footprint, you realize that EVERYTHING is connected.

Asata (pronounced As-ah-tah) created some amazingly healthy dishes that promoted the flavors of tea in different forms. She gave us a hand out chock full of facts about tea and how to brew it.

She gave us a copy of the latest tasteforlife magazine that…

Life Chef – Food for life is much like soap for life
