Did you know ....

To prevent motion sickness - from cars, boats or airplanes - don't reach for a pill or a patch! Put one "Band-Aid" over your naval! Many have tried this technique with great success - but don't think that if one is good, two must be better because for some reason, two won't work! With the holiday season upon us, this tip is sure to come in handy - and it's safe for children, too! Special thanks to Watkins Customer, Sylvia Willan for this unique idea

to ease the sting and itch of chafing, try Watkins Aloe Burn Cream! It not only soothes the immediate problem, but also forms a protective barrier to continue to protect the skin! Special thanks to Watkins Associate, Linda Nuhn for this great tip

The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be around the 1500's:

Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and still smelled pretty good by June. However, they were starting to smell, so brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor. Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when getting married.

Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean water, then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the children - last of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it. Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water."

Guide for Storing & Using Watkins Extracts & Spices

Storage: Keep spices and herbs away from heat, moisture and direct sunlight. Avoid storing spices and herbs over the stove, or near a window. Members of the red pepper family, including paprika and chili powder, will retain their color and remain fresher when stored in the refrigerator.

Usage: Try not to sprinkle spices and herbs directly from the bottle into a steaming pot. Repeated exposure to heat and moisture will hasten flavor loss and could result in caking. Instead, use a measuring cup or spoon, then add your spices and herbs from there. Be sure to use a completely dry measuring spoon when dipping it into a spice or herb. Replace bottle lids tightly immediately after use.

Shelf Life: If you follow these simple storage and usage guidelines, your spices and herbs should retain their freshness for the following lengths of time:

Ground spices – 2-3 years

Whole spices – 3-4 years

Herbs – 1-3 years

Seasoning blends – 1-2 years

Extracts – 4 years
