I was just reading about the benefits of a spoonful of olive oil before bed. Anyone follow this regimen?
I remember my mom giving us Vicks vaporub in a spoon with sugar for coughs. Ugh! I don’t think it worked.
But! A spoonful of peanut butter can stave off blood sugar lows. Still, the sugar is what we leave behind.
I suppose in the day of Mary Poppins when everyone was supposed to take a spoonful of Castor Oil daily for the vitamin D benefits, would need something. That stuff tastes disgusting! There are some who still hold to this routine. Nowadays Castor Oil comes flavored.

Seriously did your mum give you a spoonful of Vick’s Vapour Rub? I looked it up because I was sure it’s not to be invested! This is what I found.
No, you should not drink Vicks VapoRub because it can be poisonous if swallowed. Vicks VapoRub is a topical medicine that contains camphor, eucalyptus oil, and menthol. These ingredients can be toxic if absorbed into the body or swallowed.
Even if followed by a spoonful of sugar I am not surprised it tasted awful!
Glad you are still here!! 💜💜💜
She sprinkled the sugar on top. It was one of those ideas going around. But we kids hated it and refused. So our rebellious nature saved us again.😁
THANK GOODNESS 💜💜🌞
