For the challenge today breakfast was burritos from the freezer. I made a simple burger helper type one pot meal for supper. Used stuff we had on hand. I keep cooked ground beef with onions in the freezer so it goes together pretty quickly. My youngest grandson suffers from eczema and it’s flared up pretty bad inside his elbows and behind his knees. Tonight I mixed up a simple salve with beeswax, shea butter and coconut oil. Did some research and then added lemongrass and tea tree oils to give him some relief. So far I’m enjoying the challenge but it’s tough convincing some members of the family to work with me on this. We’ve got three generations living together and I can only do so much on my own. Spouse is with me on this which helps. We both opted out when daughter decided this was a good night to order Chinese. I’m hoping that if I can keep track of the money we didn’t spend on things this month it will make a difference.
