Lipswant you

Silkier, smoother, natural-looking lips Worried about fillers that look overdone? Let us put your mind at ease.

Dr. Desjarlais is well-known for his natural-looking results. Restylane Silk’s hyaluronic acid “fills” lost volume and is specifically designed for lip augmentation and the smoothing of wrinkles around the mouth. The procedure lasts less than 30 minutes and there is NO DOWNTIME! Our fillers are also used to diminish prominent veins in your hands giving a more hydrated look, as well as in full facial contouring to give a more youthful appearance.

You’ll leave the office with a more rejuvenated, relaxed version of yourself.

#3 VERMICOMPOST (Worm Composting)

Vegetable scraps Chicken poop Weeds Food waste Fruit peels Dry leaves Straw Sawdust Shredded paper

Grass clippings Garden trimmings Coffee grounds Soil Old plant material Wood chips Wood ashes Dryer lint Pine needles

According to Holcomb, vermicomposting, that is composting with the help of worms, has extraordinary benefits to the soil. It increases soil fertility, encourages better root and plant growth, improves soil structure, it even is known to increase disease and pest resistance in plants, and in turn, reduces pesticide use.

VERMICOMPOSTING RECIPE: • 1 Bucket • 2 Buckets with holes drilled in the bottom. Holes should be large enough for worms to crawl through.

• 2:1 Nitrogen/Carbon Ratio.

This means it requires two parts of green matter (nitrogen) and one part brown matter (carbon).

SET-UP AND DIRECTIONS 1. Place a drilled bucket inside the solid bucket.

2. Add worms.

3. Add two parts nitrogenbased material and one part carbon-based material.

4. Without moisture, your worms will die. Keep your bin moist but not dripping wet.

5. When worms have composted the material in the drilled bucket, add a second drilled bucket on top of the first drilled bucket and to that add another 2:1 ratio of nitrogen and carbon based materials.

6. Allow worms to travel into the newly added material.

When majority of worms have moved to the newer drilled bucket, remove the original drilled bucket with fresh, usable compost for the garden.

7. Replace the solid bucket and begin again! n
