ExiledInIllinois Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 The plant everlasting is "rabbit tobacco." Yet... In England they used that term (rabbit tobacco) for lavender... Like in the story Peter Rabbit (Beatrix Potter) What? I have children and a wife that's a librarian!

Tea Tree oil - http://tinyurl.com/nypduk8 should be on this list. Put a few drops in your shoes and it will kill the stank. Put some on your face for a chemical peel. Put some on wounds and it will kill help heal it while killing bacteria. Put it on about anything... Vanilla - Does your house stink? Do you want a fresh, and nice scent in your house? Fill a glass half full with a 1:1 water/vanilla mixture and heat on low in your oven. In about 10 minutes you will have a wonderful smelling kitchen.

Sheeeesh! I don't want to speak for anyone else, but, I personally prefer the French maid's outfit with a white apron tied at the waist.
