G is for Garlic




Known as the stinking rose, this superfood has been known to repel vampires, beat inflammation,  prevent food poisoning, cure athletes foot, keep mosquitos away, banish cold sores and help clear skin.  AND it adds a TON of flavour to food.


 Garlic is used in an old folk remedy for splinters that involves placing a slice of garlic over the splinter, then securing it to your skin with tape or a bandage. Try it and let me know if it works!

  5. My hands stink of garlic as I type this because I've got a lamb casserole in the oven. It's true about the vampires. There's not a single one here!
