If you’re looking for some fresh flowers with staying power, I recommend daisies! I’ve had these for a week and a half already, and they’re still going strong! Most of the time they last 3 weeks at least. I picked these up at Harris Teeter for $4.
I’ve been drinking a lot of red raspberry leaf tea lately! It helps prepare your uterus for labor. I usually drink this brand, but the great taste of this brand is rocking my world!
Since reading this article, I’ve been eating more dates (at least 6 a day) too! The ones from Fresh Market are the best, but the ones in the pouches at a normal grocery store are good too.
