Home away from Home Vacation in Texas

Home Away From Home

It is time to start planning a vacation

http://vacationinaustin.blogspot.com

If you're planning a vacation in the Austin Texas area

I highly  recommend  the Southern Plantation Home

Lakeway Vacation Rental estate.

I had the privilege of staying at the plantation home for a couple of nights

and believe me it was hard for me to leave this wonderful place.

I took a peaceful walk around the estate and 

enjoyed the breeze while sitting up in the balcony with a

great view. There is a swimming pool, BBQ pit, pool house

and more

I had a wounderful weekend with my family and would 

love to this again.

This is a great family vacation getaway.

A group of girls nightout.

If you are attending a conference with a group this is

a great way to split the cost.

HOME AWAY FROM HOME

Tell them I recommend this wonderful home

thanks

Irma

Apple Cider vinager

BENEFITS of Apple Cider Vinager

A list of these follows: allergies, arthritis, asthma, coughs, diarrhea, dizziness, fatigue, food poisoning, gas, gout, hair loss, headaches, heartburn, hiccups, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, insomnia, menstruation, nail problems, nervousness, nose bleeds, obesity, shingles, and sore throats just to name a few. 

One of the main benefits of apple cider vinegar is the fact that it is very effective in detoxicating both the blood stream and various organs in the body. Aspects of apple cider vinegar act, therefore, as a purifier where this drink has the ability to break down fatty mucous and phlegm deposits in the body.

...One key ingredient of apple cider vinegar is potassium. READ MORE

I am a true believer of ACV

I had warts on a couple of my fingers and they spread to all but two

I tried over the counter medicine, but it didn't work

This summer while on vacation my conclusion was that I would see a dermatolist.

But instead I continue to pray and believing  that the Lord could help me with this.

Because it was effecting ME in church and in small gatherings 

I was ashamed to lift my hands or shake hands.

I knew that the Lord didn't want me to live that way.

I did some more searches on the computer

Which Ihad done many times throught that year searching for remedies for warts.

Never until that day I found this site

http://www.apple-cider-vinegar-benefits.com/removal-of-warts-using-apple-cider-vinegar.html  

I used HEB apple cider Vinager.

The warts were gone after two weeks of treatment in Aug.2008

---

Now I am drinking Organic ACV in my water off and on .

I just need to be more consistant because I believe it will be a help to my health

STEEL CUT OATS

I came across this recipe a while back but had not tried it, until last night.

Steel cut oatmeal

Very easy recipe

cook it overnight in the crock pot

Wake up and Breakfast is ready

that is my kind of meal and wait

It is better for you than regular oatmeal

Whole grain oats contain seven B vitamins, vitamin E, and nine minerals, including iron and calcium.
