Happy Little Things

The Salty Blossom Turns 6!

Another year has flown by and The Salty Blossom has another birthday this month! The company is turning 6 years old - you know, as in we're ready for 1st grade. We've gone through the kindergarten phase of not knowing what we're doing, making really silly and weird choices, and chasing a bunch of unicorns at recess. Now, we're totally professional and will never make an immature decision ever again.  And if you believe any of that, I'd like to sell you this unicorn that I just caught at recess.  Let's have a mental slideshow as The Salty Blossom graduates...

Oracle Cards (I Crossed a Line)

Take a journey back to 2015 with me: The scene opens on Danielle and her husband, Earl, as she nervously tells him that she is taking a Reiki training. Danielle: I know this is kind of weird but it feels right to me. Does it bother you that I am getting into yoga and Reiki? Earl: No. <shrug> Danielle: Are you sure?

Before my Reiki I training, I did not have trust in anything other than my own abilities.

As I started experimenting and playing with the skills of Reiki, one of the biggest surprises was that I was suddenly in tune with and could pick up...

Unraveling the Patterns

I love playing around with hair style. When I was young, I wanted an afro so badly. I got a tight perm that only held in the front, so it was crazy curly in front and completely flat in back. (Who cares about what it looks like in the back, anyway.) I totally had the Rachel bob in high school. I played around with highlighting my own hair. (It turned orange - oops.) When I went to college, the first thing I did was cut my hair Winona Ryder short. (Unfortunately, I did not look like Winona Ryder.)  Despite my...

Patience, Young Grasshopper

When I was in middle school, I took the obligatory classes in order to become confirmed in the Catholic Church. I attended Catholic school, was being raised Catholic, and was at the age that the church asks teens to actively "confirm" that they want to be part of the church. It was a process called Confirmation and required that I go to a classmate's house on the weekends so that his mom could lecture us on different topics every week. During one particular meeting, she turned to us and told us we should say a prayer and ask for help...
