My Old World!


I miss the old world, my old world.  The world when you went out to the bookstore to buy a book.  Called a friend to sale hello and most of all, the customer was important and your quality kept you in business.

I know I am not the only person who feels this way.  Who has signed a contract only to find out all those promises of how important you are as a customer was hogwash (jiggery-pokery) to get you signed up?  The words and energy behind them was black and void. 

I know I would miss the ability to turn on the computer and being able to check how the kids are doing half way around the world, finding that instant answer to what was the name of that song or my bread machines instructions manuel because I miss placed mine again.  Sure I would miss them for a while but for how long I can only guess.

Apocalyptic Tidbit - Vinegar


In an effort to share some useful information - lets give Vinegar its fair dues ... The stuff is awesome.

VINEGAR It is a must-have for the survival kit.  Gallons of the stuff would be handy.
I use it when cleaning small wild game before popping them in the fridge for cooking the next day or freezing on the day.  I soak it after the final clean water rinse only because it is impossible as humans to keep sanitary conditions when skinning rabbits or feathering partridge.  Vinegar will help kill any lingering bacteria before freezing
It will reduce bacteria build up on many surfaces including hands.  Be careful not to use it on granite style surfaces like marble pastry boards.

FRUIT and VEG wash with vinegar and water is excellent to remove any residue chemicals as well as cosmetic residue (Wax on apples). Look it up  How To Clean Fruits    
More Fabulous uses ...
Avinegar wash over a sunburned area will cool it.

Excellent for pickling and preserving food.

Even better for eliminating odors

A lovely hair rinse – soak fresh crushed rosemary in a quart of water over night – add two tablespoons of white vinegar and use as a final rinse on your hair to remove build up and put some shine in it.  

Uses for vinegar: Tips and ideas

Vinegar also has many health attributes.  Whatever you think about vinegar it is something I will be hoarding when **** hits the fan.

Best advice is get one of those cute little books about the wonders of vinegar or print a few pages off the internet to have to hand when needed.  Easy to make too.
