    Embarrassing Moments

    Granny always said "don't do anything you don't want to see on the billboard in town". Folks, the internet is one big billboard.

    Emergency Essentials Dried Milk Changes

    I have no issues with taste with either Emergency Essentials or Honeyville - both are quite good. I bake with their milk and it turns out great. I can understand if they lowered the weight due to cost cuttings. I didn't get a good explanation of why they upped the amount to make a cup of milk.

    Emergency Essentials Dried Milk Changes

    I've been using Emergency Essentials Fortified Dried Milk for some time. All the #10 cans I've previously purchased, through September 2018, weighed 2lbs 8oz and you used 1/4c dry milk to make one cup of milk (using water for anyone not familiar with rehydrating dry milk). When I use a case, I...

    Mumps

    Measles, mumps, chicken pox..... that was a time when your parents discovered another family's child had a disease you had not yet had and you go visit them. When I had the measles, mom had it in her head if I was exposed to bright light I would go blind. She put me in their darkened bedroom...

    What natural remedy for gut/intestinal/stomach issue?

    It can also cause damage to your esophagus if you drink it straight. Always dilute it.

    What natural remedy for gut/intestinal/stomach issue?

    I buy the Bragg's brand of ACVw/Mother because it is a trusted brand and it comes in a glass bottle. It's available in most grocery stores. What is the Mother in Apple Cider Vinegar gives a decent overview of the importance of "mother". What is the mother? Apple cider vinegar is made through...

    What natural remedy for gut/intestinal/stomach issue?

    As someone who was seriously ill with c.diff several years ago, I now take AVC w/Mother at the hint of anything upsetting my gastrointestinal tract. As soon as I feel I've eaten something that could be a problem (and you know it pretty fast), I drink 8oz warm water with one tablespoon...

    What natural remedy for gut/intestinal/stomach issue?

    LOL.....I just took the short cut: A tablespoon of ACV w/M in a glass of warm water.

    What natural remedy for gut/intestinal/stomach issue?

    If you're using ACV, make sure it has "mother". Click on the link in my first post and there is information why the "mother" part is important.

    Chicken Illness

    Several chickens have runny poop and they've had it for some time. They're not underweight. They don't act sick. I put the whole flock, chickens and Guineas, on probiotics for five days. Didn't help. Pardon the graphic verbiage; however, a few of them really blow it out the rear. I haven't...

    Refrigerator Question

    A heads up on the Lowe's warranty versus the manufacturer's (Frigidaire) warranty. For us, for a 20cf upright freezer, the Lowe's warranty was more expensive, considered the first year of the manufacturer's warranty as a part of their three year warranty, and had some limitations. When I called...

    Rant for the Day (keep it clean)

    We got the same mailer for the B&L Soothe XP.... full name and address which is public information. It appears to be a mass mailing and has nothing to do with a doctor visit. IMHO
