Healing Treasure

Granted, it is winter.

And we do love the Bard...

But, we are rather contented (at least for the moment), especially because of a useful home remedy just come across (courtesy of Herbalist, Andrea Candee).

She writes, "Simply cut a piece of the ripened peel, tape it on, pulp side to the splinter, leaving it in place overnight. In the morning, the enzymes in the ripe banana will have pulled the splinter to the surface. Deeply embedded splinters may require another night or two of fresh peel."

Sounds like a remedy with appeal!
