I wanted to share some tips I have discovered. I like to invent things, like new words, new recipes, you get the picture, but I thought just tips would be boring, so it’s now my first made up meme.
Instructions:
Write your tip(s) with a link to who sent the meme to you, along with the instructions. They are better if they are your own discovery, or not widely known. Still, tips that make a difference to you are all good. After your tips, you will want to tag some friends who may even be hard up for blog fodder. (As I am today) Perhaps some of your newest bloggy friends. I have several new friends who I would like to know more about.
Tips:
- A great cat repellent is citrus oil. Go ahead, peel an orange in front of your cat and watch it scramoose. They hate it. For those who are worried about cats destroying their plants, christmas tree, furniture, just spray with a bit of citrus oil. Heck, I’d rub an orange peel on my furniture. It smells nice and all. I used to put orange peels in my garden as well, to keep neighbourhood kitties from using it as their litterbox. Just tuck the peel under the plant so it isn’t unsightly. Replace after a rain. Or, bury it for compost. Now, I’m wondering why lemon is so popular to serve with fish.
- If you have sinus problems like I do, you have probably discovered the fabulous neti pot. What if you are travelling, or like me, just plain cheap? I picked up a one-cup teapot at the dollar store. Works great!
- A sure-fire cure for bloating and menstrual cramps is an infusion of common yarrow in your bathwater. It grows everywhere here from June to September here. Be sure to research what it looks like exactly (leaves and flowers, habitat) before you use. A handful of the leaves and flowers stuffed in a mesh bag or pantyhose foot will act as the teabag for your infusion. I loved this remedy so much, I gave every woman I knew presents of yarrow I had gathered. Note to self: check for spiders before gifting.

Have fun with this, don’t hate me, I’m in a sugar coma because I made my English toffee.
And don’t forget to vote for me. Cause I’m shameless that way.
