Good morning Sunshine,

It is really good to see the sun shining today. After a much needed rest, I feel I can take on the world or at least Taylor's Corner. I am working on creating a new slogan for my business, any suggestions? Also, a new Spring campaign as well. Busy, busy, busy. I have a Twitter page, so please check in with me there at www.twitter.com/taylorscorner or become my friend on Facebook under the screen name "taylor's corner". Bye for now.

How to Stop the Spread of Germs!

(HealthDay News)

-- Hands pick up all kinds of germs, keeping them clean can help reduce risk of illness for you and yours. The Cleveland Clinic offers these 4 suggestions to effectively wash the hands:

*Rinse hands under running water, and apply soap evenly over both of your hands. The whole process should take at least one minute.

*Rub hands together for 10 to 15 seconds to allow the soap to work.

*Be sure to rub soap on all areas of the hands, including over the backs and between the fingers.*Rinse hands thoroughly and dry them. Avoid touching other surfaces that may be laden with germs.Always wash hands with soap after using the toilet.

According to TV reports, numerous persons have been observed placing their fingers under running water after using the toilet and others don't even do this, they just walk out of the stall back to where they came from. Water without soap accomplishes nothing!Always wash hands after changing a baby's diaper whether it was #1 or #2.

Cover your mouth when sneezing and wash hands immediately if the sneeze ended up in your hands or use a hand sanitizer.Stress a good hand-washing routine to all family members as a sure way to stay healthy and stop the possibility of spreading illnesses. Now that children are once again returning to school is a good time to remind them of the proper way of washing hands and when to wash them.Here are some interesting facts about a sneeze:

*One sneeze propels up to 100,000 bacteria into the air at @200mph(320km/h).

*Sneezing while driving a car means you are driving blind for 100 to 300 feet.*After only 30 seconds' use, a handkerchief contains >15,000 germs.

Gardener’s Hand Cream

The sesame oil in this rich cream acts as a mild sunscreen, and the scent of lavender is a natural insect repellant.

1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 teaspoon honey
2 tablespoons spring water
2 to 3 drops lavender essential oil
1/8 teaspoon baking soda

Combine all ingredients in a heat-resistant container or double boiler. Heat the mixture in the microwave or over medium heat until all the wax and oils are melted (do not boil), stirring well. Pour the melted mixture into a container or jar and allow to cool completely. Stir again when the mixture has cooled. Massage into clean hands.

Yield: 4 ounces

Lavender foliage cleaning recipe

A truly wonderful general household cleaner can be made by filling jars toabout one-quarter full of lavender foliage (fresh or dried), then topping upwith warmed white vinegar. Place lids on jars and leave in a warm spot onthe windowsill for about two weeks (or longer if time allows), shakingdaily, then decant into spray containers, by which time you have a lovelyperfumed and effective product.

Use to clean kitchen benches (repels andalso kills ants), windows etc. It is also good to spray into the air aroundBBQs to repel flies and mozzies, but take notice of which way the wind isblowing as it will sting your eyes for an instant.
