Good Evening All! I am late posting today as it was a very busy day for me. I hope that your day was good and tomorrow is even better for you!
I have a little tip-recipe for you, today.
A quart jar of Thomas Orange Blossom Honey! I do believe that it was processed off of 441 North, from Lake City Florida, and heading North on 441 to Georgia. As I have passed that place of business many times throughout the years.
Now, I do not know where He put out all those Bee boxes, in which-ever orange grove. When I was a child, down in Ocala Florida on Highway 301, there used to be a lot of beautiful Groves of oranges-tangerines and grapefruit but that has been many years ago.
If you have followed along on this blog, then you know that I am always into one thing or another. I have always had a quest for learning and doubt that I will ever stop searching for things I feel that I just have to know.
I do make some of my own meds and that is how I came across the reason to use this tip, for myself. As I am allergic to all antibiotics except for one, I have to treat myself, when the Dr. says I can not help you! I do not have the plague and am not sick. I was just trying to keep my immune system built up very strong.as I have COPD and can not even be around anyone that is sick.
As a child, I was healthy as a horse. I am not going to tell you the remedy that I tried out as I made a mistake and it was a painful one.
Needless to say, I took a half dose of my item and it blistered the inside of my mouth and the inside of my lips. Agony! I researched and remembered that honey is great on burns, more on that later.
Also, honey is great for mouth cankers and fever blisters which I have never had. So I took a big spoon of honey and held it in my mouth as long as I could keep it there, which was not long. I did this twice a day for 2 days and I was back to healthy, no more blistered mouth and lips.
Yesterday as I was canning milk, yes milk. Only Rebel canners do this and this is not by the blue book, so no haters, please. As I was taking the jars out of the pressure canner and placing them on the counter on a towel next to the stove. One jar slipped and fell on its side.
If, you are a canner, then you know that the jar lid seals with a pop as it sits there and cools. That means that when it fell over, the boiling hot milk in the jar, shot out in a stream of pain for me as I did not just get out of the way and let that milk go all over my kitchen.
Of course, dummy me stood right in the way and set the jar back up with a thick potholder and it stopped squirting out of the jar. But the damage was done to my upper chest, tender parts.
So, again honey to the rescue for last night and more for today. That was a bad burn but you can not even see the burn today. So honey is great food and it is a healing medicine for burns. So please remember this!
Thanks for stopping by! Connie B.
