Sadly, this is the time of year that takes a toll on our little old lady bodies.
Okay...I won't group us all together using that phrase...old lady.
The Farmer's Almanac is so much fun to read, and there is a wealth of info in them that I find fascinating. The website, too, is full of good, old-fashioned, grandma wisdom. Love it, love it, love it~
Here's an article that is worth sharing:
Take steps to prevent winter illness! Here are three commonsense reminders:
1. Wash your hands! The #1 defense requires 20 seconds of rigorous rubbing.
2. Humidify inside and out. Keep your body well hydrated and your indoor air humidified. Add moisture to the air of your wood-heated home by hanging laundry indoors, keeping a lot of houseplants, and setting steamers on the stoves that release moisture gradually into the surrounding air.
3. Eat your vegetables. Increase your daily intake of green, red, yellow, and white vegetables.

I washed my hands so much I made them raw - but it is the right thing to do. sandie
I discovered that I've been negligent in color-coding my veggies. Who knew?
Good info! I got hooked on the "bee" stuff that starts on page 72.
I never thought about them having a web page! I'll have to go and check it out.
