So funny to see this here! My son was at a friend's house this summer and he got stung on his ear by a bee. The friend's Mom, a doctor, told me she put baking soda and water on it! He was fine. He said it didn't hurt...!!!! I had never heard of this treatment before.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am married and I have a 3 1/2 year old daughter and my little guy was born in December. I'm an office manager for a construction company and my husband does floor installation and trim carpentry. The kitchen is where my inner "domestic diva" comes out. Too bad it doesn't also come out in organizing... I tend to be busy during the week with friends, church functions and family so I usually have quickie meals, but on weekends (especially Sundays) I make more time consuming meals. My hobbies are (of course) cooking, reading, more cooking, and playing with my kids. My husband and I love to get together with couples from our church (many of them he grew up with!) and we play games, eat and have great times!
