Last winter I ran across a video on You Tube with a recipe for a homemade cold and cough remedy that looked really easy to make, so I decided to try it. It is simple to make and it also works, making you feel better and I believe get well faster. The best part is that it is made from all natural ingredients. Since the cold and flu season is coming, I thought this was a good time to share it.

April 30th is Walpurgis Night
What ? You Never Heard of It ? Then Read On....
Ancient legends say that Walpurgis night was the last wintery night for witches and their minions to make trouble and pull pranks, before the start of Spring. It is said that the evil creatures would gather on Brocken, the highest peak of the Harz Mountains in central Germany, to celebrate.
It is said that Walpurgis was the one night of the year when evil magic was strongest and the line between the real world and the underworld was at it's weakest. This allowed the witches and their minions to cast spells and play tricks on humans much more easily and that is why they are always out looking on Walpurgis night for humans gullible enough to fall for their tricks.
It is very easy to make a gift bag out of a t shirt. Why would you want to, you ask? Well, I can think of a few great reasons.
T Shirt gift bags can be made from any kind of t shirt from infants (very small bags) to Adult. (large or multiple bags) You can leave your bag plain or decorate it with buttons, sequins, fringe or other trim. You can also draw on it with magic marker or dye it a solid color. If you really want to get creative, you can use the tie dye method that was in a post I made back in January: How to Make a Tie Dye without Dye At Home or Trick or Treating, Make Sure Your Dog is Safe
Halloween can be a perilous time for dogs. Decorations, extension cords, candles and all that candy can be dangerous to any pet, Halloween night especially can be very stressful on your pets, especially dogs. Most dogs are protective of their home and their people, so rings at the door mean potential danger from strangers, to a dog. Repeated doorbell rings can create a state of agitation that can do everything from make your dog physically sick to make them unusually aggressive or prone to bite.
Keeping your dog (and your neighborhood kids) safe on Halloween is a fairly easy thing to do with a little bit of planning. |
