Vinegar Uses and More....



Vinegar can be used in a variety of ways. Not only to improve ones health but also can be used as a cleaning product. Below are a list of ways you can use vinegar. The one I recommend for ingesting to improve one's health is Bragg's vinegar. The one I suggest to use for cleaning is any distilled white vinegar. See list below of things vinegar can help you with:

1. Calm an upset stomach
2. Ease leg cramps
3. Soothe sprained muscles
4. Control appetite to lose weight
5. Relieve coughs
6. Relieve nausea
7. Help with arthritis pain
8. Make hiccups subside
9. Cool a sunburn
10. Reduce sore throat pain
11. Relieve itchy skin
12. Help lower blood pressure and cholesterol
13. Help ease bladder infections
14. Help with cold symptoms
15. Treat burns
16. Reduce infections
17. Aid in digestion
18. Soothe sore feet
19. Replace many household cleaners (I use distilled vinegar in my laundry)

Play Doe:



2 c flour
½ c cornstarch
1 c salt
1 tbsp alum
Stir all above together and add:
2 c HOT water
1 tbsp cooking oil
Cook and stir to a semi-transparent look.
Knead in a few drops of food color, & ¼ tsp of cloves. The cloves help keep it fresher. Store after play time, in a large zip-lock bag for next time. Will keep about 3 months.

Baby Wipes:



1 jumbo roll paper towels
3 tbsp baby oil
4 c hot water
3 tbsp baby bath soap
Cut paper towel roll in half. Pull out cardboard core out of center of towels. Place each half in an ice cream pail. Mix oil and baby bath in hot water. Pour ½ mixture on each of the towels. Pull towels out form the center of the roll.
