GIVEAWAY: doTERRA DigestZen Essential Oil! -CLOSED-

Winner

This month I got to try out the DigestZen Essential Oil. I immediately loved it because of the fennel smell! I put a few drops in a glass of water and easily drank it down. It felt really good and soothing right away. I drank it after I had a HUGE meal so it felt needed. :) I'm also happy to have in my home a natural way to relieve heartburn and stomachaches. I didn't get food poisoning this month or any kind of nausea, but now when I do I will have something to try to settle my stomach. :)

Here is some more information on DigestZen:

Gardner Village Series: Country Furniture & Gifts

Gardner Village is a local treasure. If you've never found your way down there, October is the month to do it! The shop owners love Halloween! The village becomes a witch village and many times, shop owners will even dress up. On my most recent trip to Gardner Village, I stopped in at Country Furniture & Gifts which is a store very ready for Halloween.

The store is located in part of the old restored flour mill built in 1877 by Archibald Gardner in West Jordan, Utah. The store is very family oriented and houses many built-to-last items such as dining room tables, sofas, beds and chairs. They are also famous for their rug room where many of their rugs are still USA made. As they say, "A rug makes a huge impact for a minimum investment to any room."

The home accessories and giftware are amazing! They have all sorts of decor for all sorts of personalities. Please be sure to pay them a visit. It's worth it!
