Yep, you guessed it--

Strawberry Banana Pops

I know what I'm making this afternoon!

Want to search for the perfect popsicle?
Here are another 50 popsicle recipes from Growing a Green Family

and 176 (!) popsicle recipes from Laura's Best Recipes. 

You can get creative with your popsicle molds by using muffin tins,
individual baking molds, or cups and popsicle sticks,
or you can pick yourself up an actual popsicle mold.
I'd like to get my hands on one of these stainless popsicle molds.

Help COLOR a Child's World!

Can you believe we're about a third done with August?  Summer seems to be hit and miss around here, but the beginning of the school year is definitely around the corner.

Since 2010, Davis Family Chiropractic has partnered with elementary schools in the Vancouver area to provide school children with the supplies they need for back to school.  Last year we had a tremendous outpour from Davis Family Chiropractic patients, friends and family.  This year, we're hoping to offer the same and more, to students in the area who are in need. 

In exchange for your support, and to say thank you, Davis Family Chiropractic is offering a free first visit (to include an in-depth check up, computerized scans and onsite x-rays, if necessary) for the month of August.  We are also accepting a bag of socks or underwear as well, in exchange for your first visit. 

You can help promote this cause by bringing in school supplies or by passing along this blog post url or by 'liking' the post on Facebook for others to see and use.

Around Town This Weekend...

Hello friends!  My name is Cassie and I'm a Contributor to Life, Naturally.  You can read more about me in the 'about' section if you are interested, but I will tell you that I love the Northwest, being outdoors, finding fun (especially free) things to do on the weekend, and cooking healthy and delicious meals for my family.  So these are the sort of things I'll be writing about on this blog.  Keep your eyes peeled, because my other job is to keep you informed of giveaways, promotions and other fun things!
