She knew all kinds of old fashioned ways to heal them and for the most part, they worked. People are shocked when I tell them she gave me whiskey mixed with honey when I had "croup' but it cleared it up! Not that I would recommend it now days. :)<br /><br />We are at a near record high today and expected to be down in the 20s by Friday morning. Sounds like I'll need to get out the Execedrin.Brenda@CoffeeTeaBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02719695370857675146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-29578779211472203832006-11-29T09:09:00.000-05:002006-11-29T09:09:00.000-05:00Hi Brenda...I think I'm behind on several of your ...Hi Brenda...I think I'm behind on several of your posts (sick in bed for 3+ days, then up and preparing for Thanksgiving and guests)... so I'm finding out that you had a giveaway!!

Hope you get better soon. Ahhh, ...Hello, Brenda! Hope you get better soon. Ahhh, the wisdom of grandmothers. My little one fell ill over the weekend, and called my granny to get her up to speed. What was an obscure childhood illness to me was one that rolled right off her tongue. She immediately started asking specifically about this and that symptom. I was amazed! I had to go home and do some research before I was sure of what my little one had. I guess in the old days, women just had to have this knowledge, especially in the rural areas where no doctors or nurses were around.<br /><br />Speaking of my granny, I volunteered to wash her windows a few years back, but told her it would have to wait until the first bad frost. Why?? Spiders, of course!!!<br /><br />Take care, Brenda!Lady of the househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04470461258125426222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-48054439960867051872006-11-28T21:04:00.000-05:002006-11-28T21:04:00.000-05:00We are under winter storm watches also. 67 today, ...We are under winter storm watches also. 67 today, ice and snow tomorrow:)Laura Talberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02659335649142675534noreply@blogger.com
