I CAN NOT begin to tell you how amazing this Crock-Pot Turkey Recipe is! Forget your mom’s turkey…… Mind blown. This is to die for Turkey in a crock pot, with gravy that is well worth killing for. The roasted sweet potatoes, carrot concoction just ties it all together and will have you wanting seconds. Oh and peas, because I feel guilty if there is nothing green on the plate.
With Turkey on sale right now, I thought I would try my hand at cooking one, well part of one. I found a missed marked sale and bought a turkey breast for three bucks. hahahah. They tried to say 10.99 but I said… ummm, that’s not what the sign says. SCORE, you snooze you loose Kroger!!.
I have never cooked a turkey and I have never made gravy but I looked over a couple of recipes and thought, “that just does not seem hard at all”. I came up with my own recipe by throwing together what I had in the pantry.
There is so much to learn, read and share when it comes to the metaphysical properties of stones and crystals. I have spent over 20 years reading and working with them. Today, I am only sharing little snippets of what I have learned. If this little bit peaks your interest in learning more, I encourage you down this path. I, myself, have found it encouraging, empowering and enlightening. Comforting too, but that didn’t start with and E!
Can Lapis Energy Heal You?
People ask me all the time, can stones really heal you? My belief is; that stones and crystals can aid you in moving through dis-ease but no, I would say they are not a cure. I would not tell you to use them instead of going to a practitioner. I use them more like guides and I use them for meditation. You can check out my YouTube video, where I discuss this further.
Lapis–
Information of this stone dates back all the way to 5,000 B.C. Wow, that’s a long time!! It’s compound word is defined as azul (Arabic) meaning “blue sky” and the (Latin) lapis, meaning “stone”. The Assyrians believed this to be the holy stone Uknu, which brought the blue of the sky and with it the light of the gods to the earth.
This is a stone of protection and of enlightenment. It is often used for dream work and psychic exercises because it promotes clear understanding and intuition. This stone helps to balance the functioning of the thyroid gland.
This stone should be used on the throat chakra or placed on the forehead.
You may cleanse your stone once a month, by placing it in a bowl of hematite and then recharged in a mass of rock crystals.
◊♦◊ This “cleansing” is meant for single stones or crystals, not my handmade jewelry.

Malachite –
It is said, in the Egyptian Book of the Dead, “ the goddess of the sky drops stars on the earth, in the shape of green stones.” The Egyptians collected their Malachite from the Sinai peninsula and used it for their amulets.
This stone is considered a “transformation” stone and is particularly useful for pregnant women. It promotes growth and builds up strength. Also, it is a useful stone to promote understanding and spirituality. It helps to draw out deep feelings of hurt and resentment. It clarifies emotions and releases negative emotions. This makes it an ideal stone for meditation use.
It is particularly effective over the heart chakra but may be used to clear and activate all chakras.
Wear on the left hand or place on the third eye. To care for your malachite, you may discharge your stone by wrapping it in a handkerchief and placing it among dry tumbled stones. To recharge, place stone among rock crystals.

Labradorite –
has won the award for the most boring tid-bit on my list… get ready… wait for it…
This stone was discovered at the end of the eighteenth century on the Canadian peninsula of Labrador. Told you! Gosh and It’s really such a beautiful stone. Maybe I could try to make something up.
This stone combines intellectual thought with intuitive wisdom. It aligns the physical and etheric bodies and will deflect unwanted energy from the wearer’s aura.
This stone will work well on the sacral and heart chakra.
For healing purposes, this stone should be carried around. If it becomes cloudy, cleanse it by placing it in mineral water and leave out in the sun for a few days.

Ahh, coffee! I am not sure if I am into the actual taste of coffee or if I am just in to the ceremony of it all. The standing around waiting for it to brew. Getting my cup prepared; rationing out my sugar, getting the cream out and in the winter, so my brew doesn’t turn ice cold when it is poured, I will warm my cup up. Then, there’s that moment of the pouring from the pot to the cup. That sound, with all of its anticipation, coupled along with the steam rising and the savory aroma, mmmm. What a divine moment. It does it’s very best to beckon me to come to and join the day.

SODALITE–
Did you know that sodalite contains a lot of salt? It does. Back in the time of antiquity, sodalite was the stone of all artist because of its ability to promote inspiration and creativity. It was not favored well in the middle ages but has regained it popularity in modern times. This stone unites logic and intuition while eliminating mental confusion. It calms the mind and allows for one to receive information. It is considered a good stone to reduce high blood pressure and promotes a calming effect on the thyroid gland. Sodalite is most effective on the third eye. This stone should be worn or carried around as a touchstone for long periods of time. Discharge stones weekly or whenever the stone becomes cloudy, by running it underwater. To recharge, place the stone in water together with rock crystals.

Pearls –
They say, Cleopatra would serve wine with ground pearls in it, to her more important guests. While I love to wear them, I’m not sure I’m ready to drink them. This tid-bit, however, was much better than … Lucifer is said to have broken his teeth, because of his craving for pearls. (probably best not to look further into that one)
I do know, Pearls are not stones or crystals at all, they are considered part of the marine animal kingdom. I do use them often in my jewelry and so I have added them to this list.
Pearls promote wisdom and contentment through life, well on into old age. They reduce allergies and can alleviate migraines and chronic headaches. Pearls should be worn directly on the skin. (do not have them come in contact with perfume or makeup) When not worn, they should be stored in the dark.
To cleanse them; place on dry sea salt over night, then recharge by placing them in and oyster shell.
