Baby it's cold outside- Clean Wave Sanitizing Wand, Coconut Oil as a natural moisturizer, Fun Egg Breakfast for Kids



Here is an item my husband found that I love. It’s called the Clean Wave Sanitizing Wand by Verilux. It deodorizes and kills viruses including H1N1 bacteria, dust mites and flea eggs. I’ve already used it on our mattress and pillows, computer keyboards and kitchen counter. You’re using UV-C light which is odorless and chemical free. It even eliminates pet odor. It runs about $89 but if you have allergies or just want a little help staying well this flu season this is the product for you.



Instead of spending lots of money on skin softeners try this. Coconut Oil.


Yep, the same stuff you cook with can be used as a natural and effective lotion. I put some into a storage container and keep it in my bathroom. I know, it looks a little like lard but once it touches your warm hands it will melt into a liquid and that’s when you slather it on.



It feels so good and you end up smelling like a macaroon. By morning your skin is soft, the smell is gone and you’re good to go. I just love it. Great stuff for the kitchen as well as the bath. Warning, there is no SPF in this so I really recommend you apply at night.


It will make you feel more like a moist cookie and less like a crumbly crumb.







Here is a special treat that my Dad made for us every once in a while. You take a slice of bread and make a hole in the center with a small glass or shot glass.




You melt butter in a frying pan add the bread then break an egg into the center of it and cook. You can break the yolk but only after you turn it over. Make sure you serve this pretty side up.




He used to call these Hi-Ho Silvers. I always liked Hi-Ho Silvers on cold winter mornings and I’m sure you and your kids will too.
