Amazing Growth during the Recession

I just heard on the news that the recession is getting worse in Ireland .... I was really surprised because I never thought it was getting any better .... with all taxes and charges which have been imposed on the people how can anyone have any money to spend on anything else besides paying bills, arrears and more bills ..... so how can any money circulate in the economy for the economy to grow, eh? ...


Anyway there are a few tricks some things are still growing and will continue to grow .... yay!!
Being positive brings positivity back to you ...so true.



So don't throw out your celery scraps .... even if you do not have a garden you can grow your veggies on your window sill, or make a wall garden from pallets ... oh that is another story ...



I had great success with my celery scraps ...great growth!



I put them in water and they sprouted roots within a day or two ... and started to push up shoots from the middle with lovely lush leaves ....



I potted them the other day and they are growing very happily on my door step ....



Here is a picture of my organic celery pot garden :) ~~~

The ramblings of a Face Cream ...

Since I joined Pinterest I have really enjoyed learning how to make "home made stuff".
It is such a buzz to be able to make something that works and to also know what exactly is going into the product ... so much healthier.
This is my second attempt to making this face cream ... lol


So what did I do ...


Well I have been keeping all the peanut Butter jars, they are so handy for this very purpose, a good way to recycle don't ya think :)


This is my own take on the recipe ~


Ingredients :

Coconut Oil

almond Oil

Bees wax

Lavender and Tee Tree essential Oil

Olive Oil

Vitamin E



Boil water in a saucepan , place a bowl over the simmering water on the saucepan....just like melting chocolate :)

Put in a big cup of Coconut oil, pour in a quarter of the bottle of Almond Oil, one bar of Beeswax, pour a wee bit of Olive Oil, break open two capsules of Vitamin E and 30 drops of Lavender and Tee Tree essential Oil .... cover and let it all melt gently together ... smells beautiful.




When melted nicely together pour into your nice clean jars and let cool at room temperature ...
This cream has really helped my Son's eczema clear up without chemicals or steroids ... so I am going to continue to make it for that very reason ...




At the moment I am infusing Comfery Leaves in Olive Oil so hopefully in 4 to 6 weeks it will be nicely infused and I hope to make a lovely healing salve with that one ... so I will keep you updated on that one when it's done :)




Here is a picture of the Home Made Lavender and Tee Tree Face Cream before it set ~





Next time I will take more pics of the steps ... just to remind myself Lol :))


Oh by the way it's not just a Face Cream ... it is also a lovely body cream for after a shower or anytime :)



If you have any home made recipes you would like to share please do in the comment wall ... I would love to read them.
Have a lovely day ..:)
