Updates ~ Tidbits
Homemade "vaseline" - I have used more than half my jar already. After bitter cold weather (even with my face covered out there), my skin was very dry. I even used this on my face when it was very dry from winter air. I will definitely make this again.

Gettin' Dirty (again) ~ Hippity Hop.....
As hard as I try to sleep in on the weekends, I am not successful. My routine of early rising has got the best of me. Maybe it's time to break out the evening Valerian root tea now?

Farmgirls Ain't Afraid to Get Dirty ~ New Blackberry Bushes
Although I have just begun, you can see that this herb garden is cleaning up nicely already. I have much more to do, but it's starting to look much better since the goat somewhat destroyed it. I am taking advantage of any good weeding weather day here.

Handiwork Tidbits ~ Winston
Here are the "scrap" dishcloths I crocheted , using leftover yarn from various completions. I have no business working on a new mission (I am starting to dislike the word "project" ha ha!) They turned out pretty nice. I'll admit, I did try to color coordinate them, but scraps are scraps. I found the pattern in a book I borrowed from the library. It was actually a pattern requiring a different sequence of colors, but I simply used scraps. Once I have the name of the book, I will update it here later. Here's more to read......

Homemade Vapo-Rub
Remember those baby food jars I needed? Well, I finally got around to making one jar of homemade vapo-rub. I think I will be trying several recipes.
A farmgirl shared the recipe with me. This recipe is for adults (over the age of 12 I believe, but you could always swap out the peppermint for a safe oil for children). Always do your research on what oils are safe, if you have young children, infants or if you are pregnant.
