My New Venture with Norwex

I started a new venture a few months ago as an Independent Consultant with Norwex.  The mission of Norwex is: Improving quality of life by radically reducing chemicals in our homes.  Essentially, creating a healthier environment for my family while saving time and money - win for all.

The core of the business is the Norwex Microfiber.  The Envirocloth is the all-purpose cleaning solution. I use it in the kitchen to clean my counters, appliances, cabinets and chairs.  My kids are super messy-ha! It's super fine microfiber picks up 99% of bacteria from a surface. It's more effective than vinegar or commercial cleaners.  Around the house, I use it on furniture, carpet, and upholstery.  In conjunction with the window cloth, it polishes mirrors and windows to a streak free shine.


These two are my reason.  The world is full of environmental toxins, and making our home safe is important to me.  Every morning they go to this window and wave goodbye to Jon when he leaves for work.  Since I clean with Norwex Envirocloths and Window Cloths, it's ok when they smoosh their little faces and hands (and sometimes snacks) on the window.  Plus, they can help me clean up.


Just in time for Christmas shopping and preparing your home for guests, I'm sharing a few of my favorites - and some deals!

The Ultra Power Plus Laundry Detergent - highly concentrated and free from phosphates and fillers.  So effective that you can use as little as a teaspoon in high efficiency machines.  Not just for laundry, I use it along with the Envirocloth for getting out tough stains around the house.  

Fluff and Tumble Dryer Balls - If you are using dryer sheets, this is the perfect alternative.  Made of 100% wool, they reduce static and wrinkles, as well as minimizing drying time.  Dryer sheets are full of toxic chemicals that transfer to your clothes, and then onto your skin.  


The Dusting Mitt - Another way I get my kids to clean for me.  It's a microfiber mitten that produces a static charge to pick up the finest particles of dust.  Using furniture polish leaves a film of chemicals, which can transfer to your skin, and also attracts more dust.  
 If you're still with me - thank you! I'm hosting a virtual shopping party this weekend.  If you spend $75, you can get the Scrubby Envirocloth for only $5 (normally $18.99).  For more information, send me an email or check out my Facebook page.  My Norwex page is www.anngavin.norwex.biz.  The full product listing is on there.  I'm happy to answer any questions, and help you find the perfect products!

Roasted Sweet Potato Salad

A few weeks ago we went into Boston for the day. After chasing little people up, down, and around the Children's Museum, watching Colin climb up three stories on a jungle gym and James' excitement at a room filled with golf balls, we went to Flour Bakery for lunch.  I had the Roasted Sweet Potato sandwich, and it was amazing. I just checked the menu , and it looks like they don't offer it right now, but lucky for you I made a salad that's just as good.  The original sandwich was roasted sweet potato, apple, walnut pesto, blue cheese and kale on wheat bread.  I took some liberties, changed up some ingredients, and made it into a salad.

Lemon Garlic Baked Salmon

Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season, and ate all the cookies.  I'm not big on New Year's resolutions, but all the treats I've been eating for the past month have been making me feel a little sluggish.  When I saw a one day "cleanse" I thought I'd give it a try.  Loosely, it called for drinking hot lemon water first thing in the morning, a Glowing Green Smoothie for breakfast, Ginger Lemon Cayenne Detox tea and vegetables for lunch and dinner. My day went like this: First thing after my run: Hot Lemon water - This is a nice way to warm up.  I do this all the time. Breakfast: Glowing Green Smoothie - I liked it a lot.  Very refreshing and hydrating.  Wished I hadn't baked donuts the night before as they were staring me down on the kitchen counter. Lunch: Spicy Mulligatawny Soup - I'm pretty sure that's not what they meant by "salad," but I went with it. Snack: Ginger Lemon Cayenne Detox tea - Zingy and invigorat

Baby Breakfast Cookies and Sweet Potato Quinoa Cakes

I make these recipes for Colin, but grown up people might like them too! Colin was never big into baby food purees.  I fed him one jar of food back when he first started eating solids, mostly so that I could have the cute mini jar to use for lotion.  I think those "complete meals in a jar" are kind of creepy.  Chicken dinner puree?  No, thanks.  For the most part he has eaten fruits and vegetables, either raw, steamed, roasted or sauteed.  A few things have been big hits and I use them as staples: broccoli and roasted sweet potatoes.  He's big in picking things up himself.  We can get into ruts, however, one of which resulted in his eating an entire roasted butternut squash over a two week period. He likes to help in the kitchen, which means he wants to see everything that's going on and touch it.  Cooking with one hand while holding him with the other can be a bit of a challenge.  Sometimes I can convince him that the view from his chair is pretty good, and he tak
