We’ve forgotten so much about what our grandparents used for medicine. I wish I had listened to them more. I remember my Granny rubbing Vicks salve on our chest when we had a cold and covering us up with a ton of covers. If we tried to get up she’d say” Don’t you be fanning around , you’ll get ‘new moan e.’ “ lol Such good memories

It’s amazing how good this works but few people will tryst. For sinuse headache try hot and cold compresses 10 minutes each. Repeat three or four times. It won’t cure a sinus infection but it does help with a sinus headache. This is controversial but gargle iodine for a sore throat. I had a friend back in the eighties that had chronic strep throat. She was on antibiotics once a month until the dr couldn’t give her any more. He told her to put three drops of iodine in just enough water to gargle then spit it out. Whenever she started having a scratchy throat she would use it and never had strep again. It was life changing for her.

I couldn’t taste the ginger but the molasses gave them a very good flavor. I baked them at 350 for twenty minutes. I think 15 minutes would have been better.

That’s what I decided to do. The beds already if it ever warms up.

They are a white bean when dried but when canned the water in the jar turns brownish. The bullet stays bigger than most beans.

That’s a good ideal. I’ve bought from every seed company I know that says anything about sulfur beans but they’re not the same bean.

Any other year that’s exactly the way I’d do it but with what they’re spraying in the air and what it’s doing to the soil I’m hesitant this year

I was going to recommend the Square Foot Gardener too. Great book full of information

The way they reused everything from Clorox bottles to tin cans is amazing to me. I find a lot of crochet patterns in them too
