Garlic Feet!
Ife was having serious congestion with a low-grade fever. We blended up some raw garlic and put oil oon the bottom of his feet first, then the raw garlic blend. Within minutes his body temperature had gone down dramatically. Just the congestion and coughing remained.

Remove the Sweets and the Appetite Returns
Ife had a doctor's visit recently for an ear infection. After seeing his conventional pediatrician, anti-biotics were reluctantly prescribed. We dreaded the idea of adminstering these meds to him. We ended up seeing a wholistic doctor that Ife actually liked. She gave him a check-up and offered us some dietary options and a laundry list of things to do for our Son's optimal health. Some of the things on the list were no dairy (no preoblem, lol), no wheat, limited soy, no sugar and no cookies! It was a daily ritual that we'd give to him as we thought that these were healthy. They are spelt cokies sweetened with agave. The doctor gave us a stern NO. So we did all of the necessary supplements she prescribed and implemented the necessary dietary changes. Surely after a while we noticed some substantial improvement. Not in just his health, but his appetite! Now Ife appears hungry a lot more and he now eats more diverse foods. He is getting stronger and healthier than before and I believe that the power of his immune system is really starting to kick in. We are satisfied with our doctors and will recommend her to anybody!

Blend it Up
Jonathan made a delicious soup (delicious to us) It was a hearty winter tonic containing :
japanese eggplant
red potatoes
spinach
onions and garlic
ginger powder
cumin powder
lentils
tomatoes
soy milk
Ife asked for frozen peas on top. Then he only wanted to eat the frozen peas. Lola commented "He only likes blended up soup." "Well, blend it up" Jonathan suggested. Lola did and Ife devoured it.

Shopping Cart With Food
Ife's grandparents bought him a toy shopping cart with toy foods at the Dancing Bear toy store in Asheville and we had to pick it up. Neither Ife nor my wife and I had ever been to this store. I said to Ife "I think it's on Merrimon Ave." Ife corrected me, "it's on Tunnel Rd." Jonathan called the store, and the clerk had informed him that it was indeed on Tunnel Rd". We believe that Ife has a very keen sense of direction.

Ife's Second Day of School
In protest of not being able to eat his cookie
first, he kept his protest up for the whole 4 hour
school day abstaining from food and water. I will
not be sending cookies in his lunch box anymore.
On Monday, I'll try gojii berries.
