reVive, dedicated to therapies that create visible change and help your skin come into its perfect balance.

With the holiday season quickly approaching, many people are starting to scurry to buy gifts for friends and family. Before you head out and join the shopping frenzy, I encourage you to consider a few alternative holiday gifts.

Mother Theresa once said:
"It's not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving." It has often been said that "love" is a four-letter word and it's spelled T-I-M-E. There is no greater gift anyone can give than a piece of his or her life. When we give our time we give our lives. It's the foundation of these ten special gifts. You may not have previously thought of them as gifts, but if you look upon them this way, you'll be much more likely to give them and be a blessing to others.

Wishing you Good Health, Much Joy and Serenity now, and in the New Year.

                                Enjoy!

Overnight Holiday Oatmeal Raisin Pancakes

You can prepare these the night before to have a special holiday breakfast treat.

2 cups Quick-Cooking Oats
2 cups Buttermilk
1/2 cup Flour
1 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1/2 tsp. Salt
2 Eggs
1/4 cup Oil
2 Tbs. Maple Syrup
1/3 cup Raisins

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the oats and buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  2. The next morning; in a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the oatmeal mixture, eggs, oil, syrup, and raisins. Stir until just moistened. Allow batter to sit 20 minutes before cooking. If batter is too thick, add buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
  3. Heat a lightly greased skillet over medium heat. Cook pancakes until bubbles appear on top, flip and cook until lightly browned.
