Changes ...
So, it's 2019 and I've been organizing my office space to prepare for the new year. After the hustle of finishing the prior year I also take some time to clean up and move papers to file or shred (and work on taxes) etc. I also do inventory and order supplies so that I can make product to last through out the winter and be ready for 2019 market season which begins early April.

Elderberry Syrup
Taking a few days off from working. Kidlet has come down with a cold. So I’m making more elderberry syrup. We go thru this all winter long.
I use 2 cups dried elderberry, 8 cups water and add vanilla, lemon, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and cardamom. This is what I have on hand. You can use whatever you want.
I do mine in the instant pot for 1/2 hour and then let rest til warm, strain well and add raw honey to taste.
Store in fridge.
Good stuff. #elderberrysyrup #naturalm
