Old wives tales

When we look back we discover that many things passed on to us by our ancestors is more than just folklore and memories. Some of it science today is only just catching up on and discovering.

Take this article about Frankincense. Could it be that something so prized all those years ago was prized for more than we thought?

How many more rediscoveries are waiting to be made and old wives tales proved right. I wish I’d listened more to my Granny when she was giving out some of her sage advice. The only things I can remember is her homemade cooking. Interestingly enough another skill lost with this generation.

I think I go looking for some of the GrandMa’s recipe books, the ones where they make a meal for 6 with a dead squirrel and some grass. I think we will be needing it soon.
