My son saw a natropath who told me my sons bed wetting at age 10 was a result of allergies. She took him off glutin and the food he was allergic to and got processed food out of his diet and the problem went away. He was also given supplements which included magnesium. We just washed a lot of...
She could also try dissolving baking soda in water and working that into her scalp. Then rinse out. For contitioner pour on vinegar diluted with water. Let it stay on a couple of minutes and rinse out. I have been doing this for months and it works great. On rare occasions I use a home made...
I have both Myscovy and Welsh Harlequin ducks. We also used to think that Scovies were uglier than dirt...until we got some. I thought tge WH would be better egg layers than the Scovies. They are about the same and the Scovy eggs are so much bigger than the WH. We love our Scovy drake, Cocoa...
I knew processed food was no good for me, but the yuck factor just went up a few more notches when I read about reconditioning food. That is just fancy talk for recycling something that should be thrown out to begin with. Did anyone else read this last month...
We love our kitchenaide. We use it several times a week. I have the grinder attachment and it does a good job on small amounts. The grain mill does not grind grain as fine as I prefer. I have a K-tech mill that makes pastry flour fine flour. Although loud, it is fantastic.
Other things that can be done are:
1. Hydrogen peroxide bath
2. Lots of Vitamin C and fermented cod liver oil
3. Saline nasal rinses followed by gargling with salt water
We eat grass fed beef. It is very nicely marbled and quite tender, unless I over cook it in the grill. Roasts I cook in a Dutch oven with 2 large onions quartered, salt, pepper and garlic and enough water to mostly cover it all. I cook it in the oven at 350 F for about 2-2.5 hours. It falls...
We raised geese this year. Lyla, may she rest in peace, ;) is going to be our guest of honor this year. Can't wait. I've always heard of Christmas goose and now we get to try some. The kids are gluten intolerant so we get to change up the menu some.
Regarding diplomas, in the states I have HSd in, HS is considered a private school and as such is authorized to issue a diploma. An increasing number of colleges and universities are courting HS students and will accept home issued diplomas.
The main thing to keep in mind is that HS is a...
We have 2 TVs. One is in the bedroom and is hooked up to a DVD player. We do not have cable and only receive broadcast TV, none of which is helpful in our lives. We watch the occasional NOVA or Nature on PBS and sometimes History detectives. Oh, yes and the olympics when it comes around. The...
Mariane,
I just put the vinegar in with the detergent. I used to put it in the fabric softener cup but noticed that it drained right out into the tub anyway.
Regarding odors that the soap doesn't always get out, I wait to smell the clothing until it comes out of the drier as that gets rid of...
Here is what I use:
1 bar Fels Naptha grated fine
3 cups Washing Soda
3 cups Borax
1 cup Baking Soda
I whirl the soap and baking soda together in my food processor to make it even finer. Then I add to the rest, mix well and put in a tub by the washer. I use a rounded tablespoon full and a glug...
