Here are a few health tips that I found while reading "Thrifty Household: Collected Wisdom from the Country Women's Association of Victoria":- 1. Put a couple of drops of Lavender oil on your fingers and massage into your temples for a headache (lavender oil is also good for restless legs); 2. Rub bee and wasp stings with a cut onion. The pain goes almost immediately and it works for other insect bites too. 3. For headaches, dampen a face cloth with white vinegar and lie down with it over your forehead or closed eyes.

Cindy, I am going to try the cut onion on mosquito bites. I get them so bad in the summer and have bad reactions. Hopefully an onion will help! Thanks for the tips. I also love your recipe for a happy home!
