Tomorrow I’ll be Foxin’ it Up-Back on TV

Tomorrow morning, around 10am, I will once again be a part of Oklahoma’s Fox23 lovely morning show called, “Great Day, Green Country“. Here are a few things that you can play “I Spy” as I’m stinking it up on television (literally, I sweat a lot):

 

1. If my hands are shaking.

2. If my pits are sweating.

3. If I don’t ever look into the camera because for some reason, I cannot wrap my mind around that red button being “on” means the camera is “on”. It’s very difficult.

At any rate, I’ll have some good recipes for you, even if I look like a moron.

 


Tomorrow, I’ll be sharing a Non-Toxic Vegetable and Produce Cleaner that’s easy, inexpensive and probably can be made from things you already own.

 


I’ll also be sharing my Non-Toxic Pan and Cooking Spray that’s so simple and cheap, along with the Anti-Bacterial Spray that’s perfect for your countertops, stovetops, cabinets and more.

 


So, if you are bored tomorrow, or would like to play “I Spy” with the weirdness that is Rebekah, check it out. If you aren’t here in Tulsa, I will post the video as soon as Fox has it up.

Pray that I will not embarrass my parents….

“In Your Face!”-Back on Fox23 with Mouthwash, Toothpaste & Lip Balm

This morning I will once again be a part of Oklahoma’s Fox23 lovely morning show called, “Great Day, Green Country“. Things you should know:

1. I will be nervous.

2. I will wonder if there are boogers in my nose.

3. I hope I don’t sweat-too much.

Unbeknownst to their noses (what are they-smelling impaired?), this nervous and sweaty girl is coming back to share her Homemade Peppermint Mouthwash, Toothpaste and Lip Balm recipes on LIVE television. LIVE. No screw-ups, Rebekah.

Maybe the peppermint scent from my homemade products will snuff out the scent from my sweaty pits–but any of you that do Crossfit with me will know that would be a miracle.


Here’s the video from earlier this morning! Again, don’t judge…I laugh when I get nervous….

 


I will be sharing a quick and easy recipe for Tasty, Homemade Toothpaste that costs about $.25 to make. Compare that to the usual $4 tube I buy and I am singing the praises of DIY. Not only is it cheaper, but it’s healthier. There are no unnecessary ingredients and the baking soda and hydrogen peroxide really do the trick.

 


I’ll also show you how to make your very own Peppermint Mouthwash. It’s refreshing, cheap ($.25 compared to $6 a bottle) and easy to make. Plus, it will leave your mouth feeling clean and ready to get close to that special someone.

 


Last but not least, I will share the recipe for creating (in large quantities) your own Simple, Organic Lip Balm. I make enough to last the year with one simple recipe. And by making my own, I spend around $.25 a tube on the ingredients and the container, rather than Burt’s Bees that costs me around $3.

I hope you have enjoyed these recipes! It may seem overwhelming at first to rid your home of toxins and store-bought everything. And maybe you don’t want to make these products, but would like the benefits of non-toxic products in your home without going broke. I have found some simple solutions to replace the things that I cannot make/don’t want to make myself by purchasing them from a non-toxic green company online. Without directly endorsing them, if you are interested in knowing more,  Feel free to email me with questions.

I think I got the cob out-Behind the Scenes at Great Day, Green Country

Last week, I was once again asked to be a guest on Great Day, Green Country. This time, I shared my Homemade Laundry Soap. You can see the live video of my dorkiness here, if you want to.

 


After three times of being a guest on the show, I think I got the cob out. If you know what I mean.

 


I did need to primp a little beforehand, making sure there weren’t any boogers or any lipstick on the chompers.

 


After laboring over the setup, while wearing really cute shoes, I was ready. And this is what was going through my head.

 


“Am I ready? Does this look right?”

 


“I don’t know. But my shoes are really cute.”

 


“Nope, it doesn’t look right. I’d better fix it. I am the master fixer. Hi-yah! I am ninja quick!”

 


“Cute, cute, cute. This looks cute. I like to make things cute. La da da da. La da da da.”

 


“Yep. This looks good. I should have gone with the anti-perspirant rather than the plain ‘ol deodorant. Keep the arms out and let the air flow.”

 


After everything was settled, all heck broke loose. And I decided my recycled Vodka bottle now containing my Laundry Softener was a photo op waiting to happen.

 


Yep, I’m a dork.

 


And then the camera’s began to roll and my heart skipped several beats and I began to sweat and sweat and sweat….But, I think the cob was finally removed-if you know what I mean.

They’ve asked me back again-I hope I can be even more relaxed and cob-less. Lord willin’ and the Creeks don’t rise.

Back on TV Again! Open the Sweaty Floodgates.

I have no idea why they would do this, but they did. I’m going back on Fox23′s LIVE television morning program tomorrow-sweaty pits and all.

Oklahoma’s Fox23 has a lovely morning show called, “Great Day, Green Country” and they’ve invited me to come back to share my Homemade Beauty Product Recipes.

I guess I didn’t act like a complete moron the first go around-(you can watch the video and see my recipes by clicking here) when I shared my Homemade Household Cleaning Recipes.

Although, there were plenty of these types of looks on my behalf throughout the live taping.

Just know that Wednesday through mid-morning Thursday, I will not have been able to sleep, compose intelligible sentences, walk straight or generally act like a normal human, if you happen to come into contact with me.

And again, please pray that I will not embarrass my mother and father. Amen.
