Hey Y'all,

Remember when I told you how much it irritates me when I'm trying to read a blog post, but the ads popping up keep getting in the way? Well....I think I found a kinda-sorta of a solution.

A few bloggers I admire shared with me, that they lump all the things that they recommend (and are able to share an affiliate link to earn a small commission) into a page on their websites. So, I'm giving it a try!

If you click on the heading of My Favorite Things in the menu it will show you several categories that I chose to share with y'all. If you purchase something that's awesome! Thank you very much and if not, no worries it's no biggie.

Go check out a few of My Favorite Things,

Carpal Tunnel Relief

Hey Y’all,

Are you suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome? If you said yes you might want to give this oil try. I have found relief by using it consistently. When I don’t remember to use it, because I’m not in pain, I’ve noticed the pain will start screaming at me again. I apply the oil several times a day.

Since this oil is put into a 10ml rollerball bottle it’s easy to carry with you. I make up several and keep one by the computer, one in my purse, one by the kitchen sink and one on bedside table. It helps me remember to use it by seeing the bottles around everywhere.

Here’s the recipe, I hope it helps you too.

Carpal Tunnel Relief Oil

Recipe is from Heidi Villegas

You’ll need

10ml Rollerball bottle

15ml Empty EO bottle

Black Pepper EO

Copaiba EO

Peppermint EO

Ginger EO

Clove EO

German Chamomile EO

Melissa EO

St Johns Wort Infused Oil

First make up a stock blend bottle for the essential oils. Using a clean empty 15ml essential oil bottle. Add to bottle

10 drops Black Pepper EO

10 drops Copaiba EO

10 drops Peppermint EO

15 drops Ginger EO

5 drops Clove EO

10 drops German Chamomile EO

5 drops Melissa EO

Shake this blend very well, take a full minute to let it all blend.

In your 10ml rollerball bottle add 20 drops of the stock blend. Top off the bottle with your St Johns Wort Infused Oil, it is acting as your carrier oil in this recipe.

Purposely Old-Fashioned,

Deb

Hey Y’all,

Full Disclosure here-I don’t want you to feel like I’m trying to shove stuff down your throat. If I share a deal I find and you want or need it that’s great AND if you’re not interested that’s fine too, it’s no big deal. This is just a way for me to make a few pennies here and there without having to put ads up everywhere. I don’t know about you, but it irritates me to no end when I can barely read a blog post for all the ads.

I’m now a approved Amazon affiliate. As I find super deals on My Favorite things, I’ll be able to share them with you. The FCC demands that as a Amazon affiliate, I must disclose to you that if you choose to use my link to purchase something I am recommending, Amazon may pay me a small commission. This does not change the cost you pay at all.

Last night I shared my link for that great deal on canning salt. I hope you got in on it-36 pounds of salt for $15 and change 🤯

I’m off to find more amazing deals for you. What are you needing? Feel free to comment below, I’m off to check out containers and bottles for my medicinals now. Oh and canning jars and lids!!

Talk to ya later,

Deb

Facebook warning and why I do what I do

So I shared a post on Facebook that listed food distribution centers and processing centers that have had some type of shut down happen to them. Whelp that got me a warning from the “fact checkers” that I’ll be put in Facebook jail if I keep it up. What?!?

My greatest desire is to help you become a Happy & Healthy Home-Maker!

Hey Y'all,

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here, I'm Deb, Debbie or Deborah Raylene (if I'm in trouble LOL). This is where I'll be sharing with you, all my doings here at

Deb's Sweet Country Home

No matter what the season is, there is always something going on here at home. I come from a ranching family and always loved the homesteading lifestyle. Maybe I'm just channeling my inner Grandma Walton or Ma Ingalls.

"Use it up ~ Wear it out ~ Make it do ~ or Do Without"

is one of my mantras. It's a lifestyle that I love. Now that I live in town, I'm still doing my best to live up to the principles of homemaking that the strong women of my family taught me. I feel it's important to share with you, how things were done in the old days, before there is no one left that remembers.

I'll be sharing about gardening, canning and food preservation. Stocking up the food pantry for winter or heaven forbid, in case of emergency whether it's a natural disaster or some man made one, like my hubby and I recently went through. Foraging (my hubby calls it pulling weeds LOL) for the plants to make all of my natural herbal body care products and medicinal remedies. And all the benefits of using them.

I'm afraid that we will soon lose the valuable knowledge our pioneer ancestors passed down to us in the form of folk remedy recipes. It is a important part of our heritage! Being a Home-Maker is something to be proud of, it's a whole skillset like no other. If you are looking for a place to learn how to be more self sufficient and self sustaining, you found it. I hope that I'm helpful to you, just like all my Grandmas, my Mom, Sisters & Aunts have been for me.

Make yourself at home and have a look around, but most of all, Thank You for stopping by and come back soon.
