Nothing is quite as attractive when you have company over and while they’re sipping their champagne cocktail they take a gander at your “BM” meds. Thinking to themselves “is this her house or a nursing home?”
So this doesn’t sound that ridiculous, let me share a nightly cocktail that Mr. Bee and I have been concocting before bed. We mix a heaping tablespoon of Metamucil or Miralax with a package of Emergen-C. The fiber helps reduce cholesterol and improve your digestion (and the Gastro said this makes your colon nice and healthy) and the Emergen-C is packed with all kinds of good-for-you vitamins and minerals. I am curious to see when I go for blood work soon if it indeed lowers my cholesterol. And, the vitamin C helps to prevent colds.
I found these cute Le Parfait French Terrines at the Container Store to put all my supplies…
I took a wooden floral container and stuck on a chalkboard label to house all our vitamins. The little glass dish has kitty cat’s medicines, and a cute notepad.
Our supplies are neatly stored and displayed in the kitchen next to the sink without screaming “We are freaks about our colon health!”
Hospitality is in my DNA. I founded Home with a Twist, a daughter’s twist on her mother’s traditions, in memory of my mother to celebrate her life and the gifts she shared with me. Mother loved to celebrate life’s occasions – big and small.
