Onion can be a fighter

Eat for the health of it.

I may have told this before but one thing my mother used for colds was an onion. She would cut the onion (chopped fine) into a glass then add some sugar, then she would place a small plate over the glass and flip it over so the juice would run out onto the plate, and then she would take a spoon and get some of this juice and we would all have to take it so we were cured or safe if we didn't have a cold.

Also by placing a cut onion, if someone has the flu in the house, the bacteria germs will go to the cut onion and I am sure years ago when most of your medicine came from knowledge that you learned as a child. We didn't run to the doctor for every little sniffle or sneezes.(When you are finished with the onion you have to throw it away, do not eat it, remember it has just collected all those germs.) It can make you sick. Another remedy is shredding an onion and placing it in a stainless steel or glass cooking pot and add three cups of goats milk to the pot. Simmer on low for 20 minutes uncovered. Set aside to cool. Strain, then drink or sip 1 cup of this onion, milk mixture. Drink another cup every 3 to 4 hours. Once you get used to it you will be able to chew the onions and swallow it. I can try anything if it will keep me from catching a cold.

Always seems like the simpler life- not going to the doctor for every little thing.

Laughter is healthy:
A young blonde sat next to a lawyer on a long plane flight. The lawyer asked if she wanted to play a fun game to pass the time. The blonde answers, "No." She ignores him and tries to sleep. The lawyer doesn't leave her alone and explains, "It's easy and it's fun. All I do is ask you a question and you answer me or if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5, vise-versa"
She again refuses and rolls her head over to the window and tries to sleep.
The lawyer finally says,"Okay, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5, if I don't know the answer then I will pay you $500.
This catches her attention and she agrees to play along with him.
The lawyers first question is, "What's the distance between earth to the moon?"
The blonde reaches into her purse and hands him the $5. Now it's the blondes turn to ask the question. She askes the lawyer, "What goes up the hill with three legs and comes down with four?"
The lawyer looks at her a little puzzled.He gets his computer out and looks it up and finds nothing. He emails his co-workers and after an hour he gives up and hands her the $500. The blonde takes the money and went back to sleep.
A little miffed, the lawyer wakes her again and asks, "What is the answer?"
Without a word the blonde reaches into her purse and hands him $5 and goes back to sleep.
