^Well said.
With that being said, I think that some rights should be restricted when using government assistance for food...
I want to point out that I don't consider myself extremely low income, but we still live paycheck to paycheck. We only have 1 actual debt, so apart from rent, and...
I would first suggest seeing a chiropractor. Sometimes they can adjust the neck in such a way where it will relieve the pressure.
The other suggestion I have is to get some garlic-mullein oil. Lay on one side. Place a few drops in the ear, wait a few minutes, then do the other ear and wait a...
What an ordeal!
Have you tried going gluten free? I know it must appear as though I suggest this for everything, but I have a cousin who was having seizure type symptoms-feeling electricity in her brain- brain cramping, etc. None of her doctors were able to diagnose what was wrong. She went...
The older I get, the more SS I see my self being in the future. :)
Because of my nature...I would get a big sign that said--
We are the Jones'
:)
I'm not one to tell other people that they should, or should not be living a certain way, as long as they are supporting themselves.
If tax...
I would have told them yes, I do flush my pads---they do a good job scrubbin' the toilet and the pipes on the way down!
I have a Diva Cup, and I use it about 50% of the time. I have a different experience because I got the larger size after I had my first child because I thought my second...
I am wondering about this too. My MIL wants to get me a heated dog waterer, but I am going to get nipples and use gravity since I want my girls to have fresh water all the time...(They still manage to poop in the water, even though there is barely a spot to stand on the thing!) Right now I use...
If you want to get tested by a medical doctor, definitely don't go G-free. The blood tests that they currently have are very finicky, and are not very sensitive. Then, there is an endoscopy- Docs probably won't diagnose without the endoscopy (they look at the lining of your intestines).
There...
mmmm butter....
Tonight, I may or may not have finished off the butter dish with some hot, juicy roast...all swished around.
I read this article the other day about butter:

I am making our own dinner for when we go to my In-loves. I will help my M-I-L make their meal, but I will probably make lasagna, since both the boys love it (and so do I), but I will make it at my house and heat it up there, probably on the grill, since the oven will be used!
Oh dear. I just...
My family loves these things when the weather turns (So do I--less work!) I usually never use recipes, so I will give you an overview. :p
I use my crock pot for these.
Chili-beef, beans, onions-occasionally corn, tomatoes, sometimes celery.
Cabbage Soup-Ground beef (or you can use ham, if you...
This sounds so awesome! I am probably going to do something similar as well, but I want to get my veggie garden in first.
You have a great list so far! I would add:
Comfrey-its roots and leaves are good for poultices-
Calendula- good to add to a salve-
I would say Dandelions and Nettles...
We have 7 pullets right now-all White Plymouth Rocks. I got them on October 24th. I think 4 are laying right now off and on. The most eggs in one day they have laid was 3, so maybe even 5 are laying. They are about 7 months old. They are my boys' ladies, I just supervise and do all the work...
I hope it does help someone!
They wont come down for Thanksgiving, and that is ok-this is her only holiday that she really likes. I plan on making a meal to bring up there (I am thinking Lasagna!) and we will still all eat together, and I love helping her make their dinner. I just have to...
This is SO true! Whenever I have a "crackpot" theory about something-I write it down, then test it on my husband. (But I haven't tried a couple drops of something...I usually do my testing by eliminating or adding a food.)
I am not "diagnosed", because I don't have insurance. Even if I did have insurance, most doctors go out of their way to diagnose it as something else, so they can prescribe pills. Celiac is often mis-diagnosed as FMS, MS, CFS, CF, Lupus, etc. There is no pill for celiac. Many go through YEARS...
This happened with me, although it took a while. I first noticed weight loss. Then my canker sores went away! Now when I get contaminated, I get canker sores. It sucks-especially since I have dealt with them my whole life and it is so awesome to be able to talk without pain! I am SO glad my...
If you are trying to eliminate Gluten, remember B.R.O.W.
Barley, Rye, Oats, Wheat
Oats do not contain Gluten, but are processed on the same equipment as B.R.W., and sometimes contain MORE Gluten because it picks up the little dust-like particles that get bashed off the gluten-grains. There...
I know that manufacturers put sell by dates on their products for their own reasons, but what are the health consequences? What types of preservatives are in the foods that are making them last 1-2-5-10 years past their "due dates"? This is generally regarding canned and boxed foods.
I love...
