It looks like we are finally in for some cooler weather, and possibly definitely rain, this week. The plan is to get some of the storage unit cleaned out before temperatures go back up. We have so much that others could put to good use, and we’d like to rid ourselves of the added expense. Ideally, I’d like to get the furniture and box of clothes out since they are the stored items most affected by the weather. Productivity-wise, I made cookie dough to freeze until just before Christmas. I also got the other treats made and handed out for the most part. Every year we give out baked goods to friends and family. All I need are either tins or plates since I used the last of what we had last year.

Turmeric & Coconut Oil for Teeth?
So I have been reading a lot about the possible benefits of turmeric and coconut oil on teeth. I wish there were more studies on the effects of the two on whitening, cavities, and tooth decay, but currently there are very few. I love the both of them because turmeric is good for digestion (and I’ve been having some GI issues lately) plus fresh turmeric is amazing in everything, and coconut oil is incredibly versatile. I made a pasty mixture of coconut oil and turmeric to see what the results will be on my teeth. Instead of replacing real toothpaste for the mix during morning and night brushings I will use the paste at night only, and then follow it with my normal mouthwash (ACT).

I am going to try this for 30 days starting tonight, and will post the results at the end of my trial. What are your thoughts on the use of this for teeth? Do you have any DIY concoctions?
Stay beautiful!
