…and use THAT for a post image.  But {cough, cough} somehow that never managed to happen.  

Years ago, an acquaintance gave me a gift book I wasn’t sure was real or gag, Joey Green’s Amazing Kitchen Cures: 1,150 Ways to Prevent and Cure Common Ailments with Brand-Name Products.  Just as the title suggests it has one suggestion after the other for everything from A-Z; well, A-Y anyway (Acne to Yeast infection).

One of my favorite “cures” is for insomnia:  Twinkies.  It’s rationale?  ”Having a small snack before bed, like a Twinkie, subdues hunger pangs that might otherwise keep you tossing and turning.”  Joey does have a point…!

There are antidotes for many health-related issues (headaches, kidney stones, nosebleeds) and injuries (bee stings, blisters, cuts and scrapes), and then there are beauty remedies.  Oh, my…following a few of these suggestions will save you hundreds of dollars at the department store….

*If* you’re brave enough to try them!
