Guess What??? | Concrete | Not to Brag, BUT....
Your Non-Toxic Home Newsletter for 5-30-2025 Is Here!
Welcome, New Subscribers!
It may be a radical statement these days, but we can have different opinions about some topics and still be friends. While our opinions are based on extensive research, weighing all sides of any issues, we respect your beliefs/opinions.
As we address many different topics, including faith-based topics, if you disagree with an assertion or are uninterested, simply ignore the article or video like you would have strolled past an uninteresting store when cruising the mall in the 90s!
Consultation Request?
Email consultations are available on a variety of topics! Some clients just want someone to bounce ideas/plans off of, others want to pick my brain about specific topics I’m knowledgeable about, while others want me to research a topic for them. You can get going as soon as my time permits and find more info here.
The best way to contact me is to add nontoxichome (at) protonmail (dot) com to your contact list, then send me an email. Otherwise, my responses often end up in the spam folder or lost in the ether.
My computer time is extremely limited, and I really value the support of our Patreon and Substack members, so I’m now opening up Non-Toxic Home Q&As to them! If you missed out this last go-round, I'm planning for it to be a regular bonus, as a thank you for your support!
Is Concrete Toxic??? (Extensive Article)
Recently updated post! This extensive article offers information for everyone- the average homeowner, individual seeking the truth about the safety of building materials, or person with environmental illness/ latex allergy/ chemical sensitivity.
As I've been replacing deer fence posts around our garden, it came to mind that this article deserved an update!
Not to Brag, BUT My Pesto Recipe Is Kinda Amazing
Recently I made a mega-batch of my super amazing substitution-friendly pesto- without basil! As my oregano patch (an easy-to-grow perennial) was considering throwing a fiesta and inviting all its’ rowdy friends over to party all night, completely disrupting the neighborhood, I had to do something about it.
So I harvested bowls upon bowls of oregano, a slew of edible, nutrient-dense weeds, and went to town. Now, my frozen pesto stash is built up again and I have to say, oregano pesto is simply delicious, especially on my homemade pizza.
Shout out to Foods Alive for producing healthy nutritional yeast! (Also available on Amazon. The only other brand of nutritional yeast that is Leanna-approved is Sari brand.)
Guess What?
2025 is almost half over already. Can you believe it? It seems like it was only a few weeks ago when that whole cybertruck- at- the- Trump- hotel thing went down.
Nope. That was January 1st.
Time has just flown since March of 2020.
Apollo, The First Seal Rider, Gold, and Pharmakeia (Olivet Discourse Bible Study 14)

Car Air Fresheners + Smoke + Newer Vehicles=
A walloped Leanna, that’s what!
We’re getting scheduled maintenance done on our truck, and just found out that the mechanic dropped the ball on ordering a critical part, which means we’ll have to rent longer. Does anyone actually do their job anymore? This is the best mechanic we’ve been able to find within a good 100 miles or so. This is the cream of the crop. Yeesh.
Anyways, the incredibly toxic, rarely studied fragrance in air fresheners/ cleaners used in vehicles, plus the fact that people smoke in rentals, along with the status of newer vehicles basically functioning as mobile cell towers all mean that I may not get a newsletter out for a couple of weeks. We shall see!

Regardless, I’ll at least try to get videos posted answering questions from Patreon and Substack paid members. If you missed your chance, I’m a sucker for helping people, so feel free to join and chime in with your question! I’m planning to make this a regular perk for paid subscribers.
And with that, I hope you have a beautiful, restful weekend, filled with the beauty of nature.
