My Dad used to call them Beasties lol. Annoying beastly little buggers that, they are.
Mosquitos are at their most active during early morning and early evening and enjoy gate crashing your barbies, buzzing maddingly around ears, leaving you and your friends slapping themselves silly trying to kill the little suckers.
First of all it would be […]
Things have changed considerably since the days when Romans boiled goat tallow with wood ashes to replicate the foamy suds that billowed up when the rain fell on the charred remains of sacrificed animals. Thankfully, having to butcher an animal is no longer a prerequisite.
Before I began making my own soap, I used to suffer […]
Aborted babies are being used in stem cell therapy to slow down the effects of aging. Stem cells are extracted from aborted or miscarried foetuses and injected into the bodies of our youth obsessed society. It is the latest weapon in the anti aging arsenal, closely followed by Botox (Botulinum Toxin Type A).
Stem cell therapy […]
Whilst this has been generating buzz in the blogosphere, I have been quietly sitting on the sidelines reading the arguments for and against the No Follow attribute which is standard nowadays with many platforms such as Wordpress, what I happen to be using.
Having had this blog up for err…hmm…over a year I think, too damn […]
Takes on a whole new meaning.
Facial threads or whatever you wish to call them are clear sutures created from polypropylene, a versatile polymer. It does double duty both as a plastic and as a fibre.
As plastic, it’s used to make things like dishwasher safe food containers because it doesn’t melt below 160° C or 320° […]
Oregano [Origanum Vulgare] is antiseptic, antiviral, antibacterial, in fact, anti alot of stuff that can drive us to despair.
Oregano is a warming and strengthening essential oil and can be used as a disinfectant, to aid in sinusitis, boils, cellulite and colds to mention a few.
My partner has suffered with Toe Nail Fungus for 4 - […]
Social sites are beginning to make me feel nauseous. Yes, I’m in a black mood today but it has nothing do with the unfortunate and undeniable facts, and these are that social media hubs whether they be for bloggers or establishing a network of friends have been reduced to nothing more than avenues for whoring […]
A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, “Harry, what’s your problem?”
Harry answered, “I’m too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I’m smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!”
Ms. Brooks had had enough. […]
‘Along both banks of the river,
fruit trees of all kind will grow…
their fruit shall serve for food, and the
leaves for medicine (Ezekiel 47:12)
It is a scientific fact that toxic material can penetrate your skin and enter your bloodstream but thankfully, the goodness of essential oils also has this ability.
Over the coming months I will be […]
The other day Miss 10 along with Heckyl and Jeckyl gave me the usual night before warning that they were supposed to go to school dressed up as pirates.
Yikes! Okay, no sweat. A little bit of imagination and lateral thinking was in need.
I take after my dearly departed Dad (Tata in Polish) who was affectionally […]
Disaster has struck!
I was under implicit instructions from Miss 10 to look after her newly acquired slugs…oops typo, I meant snails.
African snails to be exact. These suckers grow to the size of a saucer I’m told. Ewww. I have a compelling urge to slam the slimy things against the wall outside.
Dutifully, I’ve been misting their […]
Trying to establish a young company in a new country can be daunting. Of all the challenges I’m facing, getting up to speed with EU regulations in the UK governing beauty cosmetics is the most onerous.
Unfortunately, the internet is a sea of misinformation, with numerous soap making websites contradicting each other on what the EU […]
Back in 2002, the actor Jamie Lee Curtis showed great gumption and posed for More magazine a la naturel. It takes powerful self esteem to expose yourself to potentially millions of readers without the comforting appearance of a highly polished glamour look.
Jamie Lee bared her bod in tight spandex and showed the world the real […]
The perception of beauty is a lie.
Women continue to battle to achieve the “right look”; the perfect bust, youthful face and shapely legs…by whose standard anyway?
True beauty can be found in a person’s smile, ideas, charm, thoughts, humour, laughter, generosity, compassion, intellect, integrity and unselfishness, not by a person’s body image.
The billion dollar beauty industry […]
