I’ve already lived longer than my Dad, his two brothers, and several other relatives and friends I’ve known. But I don’t believe I would’ve lived this long if it wasn’t for a loving wife and God’s mercy on me.

So, I’m goin’ with marshmallow delight. My stepmom used to make a very delicious batch of it at Christmas time or Thanksgiving. And she added … Read the rest…
I’m not into touchy-feely stuff. So, when someone suggested, many years ago, that I might actually like the chamomile effects of a tea she was going to make for me, I was skeptical. But I have to admit I actually did enjoy the chamomile effects. Because I had a very bad headache. And I guess the chamomile tea helped reduce the inflammation that was … Read the rest…
Before I share some interesting information about yarrow for wound healing, I’d like to share this little tidbit from the book of Genesis in the Bible: And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.
