9/8/2017

​This is a great oil to use on its own, with essential oils, or to add to ointments and salves. It is anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, astringent and expectorant.

Watermelon Ginger/Lime Juice

8/9/2017

0 Comments

 
This is a quick and simple recipe that you and your kids will enjoy, especially on a hot summer day. Adjust the ginger to your taste, I personally love ginger so I add a nice size piece of fresh ginger. Enjoy!

2 cups of chopped watermelon
Juice of 1 small lime
1 teaspoon fresh ginger root or one small piece of ginger.
Picture
A small pinch of Himalayan or sea salt, just enough to bring out the flavors.

Directions:
If needed, remove seeds. Blend all ingredients until smooth (makes one serving).​ You may add honey, agave or maple syrup to sweeten. However, I find it that the watermelon sweetness is enough to make this smoothie taste delicious and it keeps the drink low in calories.

This recipe is very simple and easy to make. Works well for treating coughs, colds, and chest conditions.
​

2 – 4 oz thyme leaf and flower
1 quart of water
1 cup of honey

Combine the thyme and water in a pan over very low heat. Simmer lightly, with the lid ajar to allow the steam to escape, until the liquid is reduced by half (makes about 2 cups of very strong thyme tea). Strain, add honey to warm the liquid and stir until the honey is melted and well-mixed with the tea. Store in glass jar in the refrigerator, it will keep for 3 to 4 weeks. Take ½ to 1 teaspoon every couple of hours until the cold or cough subsides.
