    Thanks Shirley! I was on my way to try and find a yogurt recipe and got side tracked by this. Very interesting, you deserve a 5 just for typing all that, not to mention the usefulness of the information.

    Love these home remedies and they probably work better that things you can buy. You can also use meat tenderizer mixed with just enough water to make a paste and apply to bee stings and will take away the pain and swelling. My Dad also used to put tobacco juice on me when I got into bull nettles. Gross, but it worked. Thanks for the great post. Cathy
