Mom’s Famous No Mess Pot Roast Recipe

Most people owe any skills they’ve acquired in the kitchen to their mothers. That is a fact. The mothers were the ones who first taught their young charges how pour milk over cereal, then put bread in the toaster, then make scrambled eggs, before graduating to that childhood staple: a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Renaissance Fair in Texas

2010-06-30T14:10:00.000-04:00

Have you ever thought of what women wear underneath their clothes for fashion and/or function? I am amazed at what women wear these days to uplift their bosoms, down play their extra cushioning in other areas and so on. However, that is nothing compared to what women before modern times had to wear.

I was recently at a gathering in Texas at which I met a woman who is actively involved in Renaissance or Medieval Festivals and Fairs. We were discussing the garments women during that period wore and which women in Medieval costumes wear at these events. This woman told me first a lady would wear something of an under dress, made of a material similar to a course linen.

Ouch, what no 100% soft cotton next to my privies? Then there would be a corset or girdle around the waist, which would be pulled tight as to make the waist look very small and the bosom big. Do you remember Pirates of the Caribbean when Kiera Knightley’s character fainted because she couldn’t breathe due to her tight corset. This thin waist was the popular look of the period. Yikes! (I would not be popular if that was the case.)

Over the corset would be another garment which was basically another full dress acting as what we would now use as a slip over our bra and panties. However, it was not made of light weight cool material. Then there would be the outer garment, in some cases a surcoat which would be the ornamental portion of the dress made of finely decorated material. Beyond that would be veils, gloves, decorative collars, and wraps, which were necessary to keep up appearances and ladylike demureness. (Demure, what’s that?)

And with all their clothing they sweated a lot. When I told my new friend about BraMates she had to have a pair, and she left the gathering with a bunch of my business cards telling me that her renaissance fair friends would be buying some soon.

After hearing of what these women would wear I laugh at myself and women today. We have nothing on these historical women. I thank God I live in a country and time where women are free to work, vote, think for themselves, and to choose to wear comfortable clothes or uncomfortable clothes for fashion or function. God bless America.

I’ve included a video of a renaissance fair so that you can see what those women had to do in the old days to look good!

Intertrigo

2010-06-28T08:17:00.000-04:00

Intertrigo

Intertrigo is an inflammation (rash) of the body folds (adjacent areas of skin).
Intertrigo sometimes refers to a bacterial, fungal, or viral infection that has developed at the site of broken skin due to such inflammation.

Intertrigo usually develops from the chafing of warm, moist skin in the areas of the inner thighs and genitalia, the armpits, under the breasts, the underside of the belly, behind the ears, and the spaces between the toes and fingers. An intertrigo usually appears red and raw-looking, and may also itch, ooze, and be sore. Intertrigo occurs more often among overweight individuals, those with diabetes, those restricted to bed rest or diaper use, and those who use medical devices, like artificial limbs, that trap moisture against the skin. Also, there are several skin diseases that can cause an intertrigo to develop, such as dermatitis or inverse psoriasis.

BraMates bra liners can help prevent the start of intertrigo by removing a key ingredient: moisture.

Treatments
In general, treatment for all skin rashes, less is more, and consult a dermatologist if it persists for more than a week. Infections can be treated with a topical and/or oral medication(s). The most common treatment being a baby diaper rash ointment such as a topical zinc oxide cream. Some commonly available over the counter brand names: Sudocrem, Desitin, and Balmex. There are also many other generic diaper rash creams that may work. Also for a persistent intertrigo infection it is common for an anti-fungal cream, most commonly clotrimazole 1%, to be used in conjunction with a diaper rash ointment.
It is suggested to use a paper towel to apply the zinc oxide cream and/or anti-fungal ointment(s) to avoid excessive hand washing, as it is very difficult to wash zinc oxide ointment from the hands because it resists water. Other ingredients in baby rash ointments that are beneficial to relief of intertrigo is cod liver oil and shark liver oil. These oils are also available in pill forms that may also help the infection (see links).
Hydrocortisone available at drug stores and over the counter in low dosages is beneficial in relieving the pain and symptoms of the infection but is not curative.
Keeping the area of the intertrigo dry and exposed to the air can help prevent recurrences. If the individual is overweight, losing weight can help. Using antibacterial soap, surrounding the skin with absorbent cotton or a band of cotton fabric, and treating the skin with absorbent body powders and even antiperspirants (with caution: do not apply it directly on the intertrigo because it will hurt) will all help prevent future occurrences. Relapses of intertrigo are common, however, and require periodic care from a dermatologist.
Prescription Medicines
These prescriptions are very dangerous and are usually only prescribed by a doctor for extreme cases.
