Are There any Foods with Cynergy TK?

What is Cynergy TK?  It is the most recent and hottest anti-aging skin product on the market.  It contains an usual form of keratin.  If you take good care of your skin, you most likely have heard of keratin.  It is a natural protein substance that occurs in the skin, hair and nails of humans and in the wool and the hooves of animals.

The lack of keratin in our skin is why we wrinkle and sag, as we get older.  It is also the reason why we buy products with keratin in them, we want to re-grow those younger skin cells that keep us looking youthful, and keratin is what we need.  Cynergy TK is made from the wool of New Zealand sheep, and is a form of keratin that is a main ingredient in a few very expensive skin products.

The Lost Art of the Hometown Christmas Parade

Recently my husband was invited to drive his transformed golf cart, which we call “The Buggy”, in a Christmas parade.  The event was a four-hour drive from our home.  However, we do love to show off The Buggy, so off we went to Linden, Ala.

Linden is a small town rooted in gospel hymns, old money, and friendly faces.  Linden’s Main Street is the central location of the prospering mom and pop businesses, as well as where the churches and the small high school can be found.  It gave us a warm feeling as we witnessed this small step back into time.  It looked like a Norman Rockwell painting on the cover of “Life” magazine.

The Death of a Grandchild and What it Means to a Grandparent

For a grandparent, there is a unique kind of grief, associated with the death of a grandchild.  I have tried to come to terms with that fact, as I have experienced the death of a grandchild three times in my life as a grandparent.   My hope in writing this article is to help you, dear Grandparent, if you find yourself in this most horrifying of circumstances.

The last of our three babies who left before their lives had truly begun was in 2004.  Jace, our 6-month-old grandbaby, died in his sleep during the early hours of a cold February morning. The cause was SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).   On one day he was happy and healthy, just starting to turn over.   The next day he was gone.

I want you to know that I understand how you feel.  During my grief over the loss of Jace, my emotions rotated from anger to overwhelming sadness on any given day.  For a grandparent, the torture is doubled.  I watched my daughter, my child, as she grieved for the loss of her baby, and my heart broke.   I could not help with this one.  I could not make it better.   I could not stop her pain.  I also had my own grief to deal with while trying to help her through the nightmare from which she believed that she would never awake.

Mysterious Bone Finally Being Tested for Evidence of Amelia Earhart Remains

Amelia Earhart was a woman , a pilot and a pioneer.   In 1932, she became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.  A little known fact about her is that she was also the first woman to receive the Airforce Distinguished Flying Cross.

However, it is her attempt to fly around the world in 1937 for which she is most remembered.  It was a flight that placed her into history’s mysteries, because the plane vanished over the Pacific Ocean.  Both she and her co-pilot, Lieutenant Commander Fred J. Noonan, disappeared without a trace, a few weeks after Earhart and Noonan left Miami in her 10E Special Lockheed  “Electra” model airplane.  Despite long searches by both the United States and the Japanese military, the plane or its occupants were never found.  

July 2012 will mark the 75^th anniversary of the disappearance of famed female airplane pilot.   She disappeared on July 2, 1937, and her remains have never been found.

There is renewed hope, however, that she and her plane may at last be found and recovered.  The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (TIGHAR), has found what they believe to be the bone of a human finger on an unhabited island in the Pacific ocean, called Nikumaroro. Read More

Why Gifts-in-a-Jar Make the Best Christmas Gifts

In these hard economical times, more and more people are finding ways to give less expensive, yet still meaningful Christmas gifts.  It seems that home made or handmade gifts are rather special to people, but what about those who are no so crafty or handy when making gifts?  The solution is found in creating food items that are placed in a jar, along with instructions on how to prepare the gift.

These gifts are handmade, usable and non-forgettable. They make the best gifts for those who appreciate the personal touch and who love the idea that they were created especially for them.  There is no need to spend thousands of dollars, usually on credit cards in these hard times, to make the ones you love, know that they are special to you.  Simply put a little work into gifts in a jar and they will see you as super Santa.

The Fourth of July Holiday Travel Experience From Hell

I have vivid memories of a certain vacation from years ago, when my children were young teenagers, and my ex-husband and I were very, very poor.  Yet we still loved to travel, and to take vacations.  Finding creative ways to do this was a challenge, but I always managed to devise a plan that we could afford.

One year, the travel destination was to be Panama City, FLA.  We lived, at the time, about 10 hours away, so the gas cost alone was hard for us.  I came up with what I thought to be a clever plan.  We would camp out instead of renting a motel room for the week’s stay at the beach. Now, tell me, who stays in a hot tent on a Florida beach in the middle of July?  We did, but that was just the start of our woes.  Read More

Bugleweed Ground Cover

Bugleweed is not only an excellent groundcover, but is also medicinal.

Bugleweed, sometimes called “bugle”, is a plant that is commonly used for covering an area of ground that tends to erode, or to cover an area that is hard to mow, or to  prevent weeds from growing on a spot.  It gets its name from the shape of the leaves that resemble tiny bugles.  However, there is much more to the little bugleweed plant than meets the eye.

Bugleweed is a perennial, which means it grows and blooms every year without re-planting it.   If you live in an area with mild winters, bugleweed is also evergreen.  It will spread so quickly that some people may pull out some of it, if it gets out of control.  Read More

How to Parent Adult Children When Their Spouses Drive You Crazy

When your children grow up, many times they marry a person that you just do not like, or with whom you have some problems.  How do you, as a parent, handle that situation?  Do you openly voice it, and risk damaging your relationship with your child?  Do you keep it inside until it becomes a seething pot that boils over sooner or later?

First of all you need to ask yourself, “What exactly are my problems with my son-in-law or daughter-in-law”

Secondly, if your issues with the in-law are legitimate ones, and not just a reaction to your own idea of whom you really wanted your child to marry, as in "he is not good enough for my child” then there are ways to deal with the situation that may help to resolve it.  Read More

Solar Cooking and Solar Baking

Imagine a disaster that caused the loss of your ability to cook and prepare meals for your family.  For a time, any foods that would not need to be cooked could suffice, but in a long-term situation, sooner or later those foods would be gone. 

However, if you still had foods that you could cook but no way to cook them, it will present a challenge.  If you happen to have a wood barbecue grill and some wood, you could cook for a little while, at least until you have burned all of the wood that you had on hand.

Thankfully, nature has provided a way to sustain life by way of solar cooking. Yes, you can actually cook using only the sun, if you have the right "stove."

During the weeks following that event, many women came forward claiming to have had affairs with Tiger.  One by one, the world watched his supposed mistresses being interviewed on television about their affairs with the golfing professional.
