Once again, amazed at how far fresh herbs can go to benefit your health! Trying to add some to every dish, including salad. Today's spotlight: Parsley:

Parsley's vitamin K is important because it helps blood to clot in addition to contributing to bone health. Parsley is rich in vitamin C and other antioxidants, which help reduce the risk of serious health conditions like diabetes, stroke, heart disease and cancer. It's also an excellent source of: Vitamin A.

Natural Detoxifier. Parsley tea can also be used as a diuretic. This means you can use it can trigger urination and help in the detoxifying of your bladder and kidneys. Diuretics are particularly helpful in eliminating toxins, retained water, salts, and fats from the body.

Animal crackers are my best new friend. Learned from another goat mom just recently. For years we have struggled with the goats to get them to go from one place to another. Solution: Animal Crackers! They love them! They will do anything for them! And now I just discovered the chickens too will do anything for animal crackers! Now you can't give them a lot.. but one stinking animal cracker will go a very long way! Animal crackers where have you been all my life? Nestor also has taught me this.
