I remember those pumps, mum had a gold one, it stunk, because we lived near the creek we had heaps of mozzies and mum used to go mad with that stuff. I am surprised we are still alive.

Oh I loved the smell of that stuff, and also the mosquito coils. No wonder I have bad asthma today.

yeah, come to think about what we ingest without really knowing what damage we*re doing. The other day I bought a packet of breadcrumbs from Aldi, and oh boy! you should see the ingredients, there*s about forty different ingredients. I always thought breadcrumbs were dry bread crumbed. But now when you read any ingredient on any package or can the list keeps on and on...and on...and on..... Sad Sad Sad Sad Sad see for yourselves. Sad Sad Sad Sad Sad

It seems nothing is natural anymore, except that which we make ourselves.

Anyone who has sampled my cooking would say there is nothing natural about it.
