Provident Living (Wed, March 10-16th)

Money Saving Tip:
When your drain is clogged with grease...pour a cup of salt and a cup of baking soda into the drain followed by a pan or boiling water. The grease will usually dissolve immediately and open the drain. To freshen a garbage disposal, run orange or lemon rinds through it.

Money Saving Tip
Nasal congestion relief--try chewing on a couple of curiously strong Altoid peppermits. They'll clear up your stuffed nose.
Overnight cough relief--try Vicks vapor rub on your feet and wear a pair of socks. It's weird to wear socks to bed but a night without coughing so you can sleep is far more rewarding.

Reagan Leigh Swain

Congratulations to Jennie & Patrick Swain on the birth of their 3rd child - baby girl Reagan Leigh Swain.  She was born on Jan. 15th, 18.5" long and 7 lbs.  Jennie said: "It was my longest labor at 5 hours, with some minor complications, but nothing we obviously didn't survive!  :)  She is practically perfect with 10 fingers and 11 toes (Nope, I'm not kidding!), but hey better to have extra than not enough!  Right?! :)  She is a great baby! "

Money Saving Tip:
Laundry stain remover--1/2 cup ammonia, 1/2 cup white vinegar, 2 Tbsp liquid soap or soft soap, 2 quarts water. Mix ingredients and shake well. Pour a portion into a pump-type spray container and store the rest in a clean gallon size jug. Label and keep out of the reach of children.
