Have you got the bottle! ok bottling time! i used the old fashioned siphoning technique of put the bucket high with a tube in. suck the tube till the liquids nearly out then put the end into the bottle. this may seem slightly counterproductive after all the sterilising you did but on the plus side u may be lucky and get a lil taste he he. now me and my bro could only find ten 500ml bottles untill we cleaned out the store.... massive preserving jar to the rescue! box em up and put them back in the cool dry place. like i said i have heard stories of bottles exploding so best to put em in a box somewhere where out of the way that you wont mind cleaning up. Not by your bed, not by your pets bed , not on top of the ã5000 LCD TV etc. right now leave em for another 8 days in the bottles (and jars) for the rest of the sweet sugars to be turned into alcohol and the gasses to buil up some pressure. ive heard this brew, if done correctly, can last up to 2 years but im not gonna wait that long.
Child Training Bible paula white « I'm Speaking Truth… Every year between January and Easter, pulpit pimps begin to lick their chops as they look forward to flogging the sheep into giving to their absolute favorite pyramid scheme of the year – the “First Fruit offering.” Unlike the tithe scam (where the pimp puts a gun to the back of your head every Sunday and Wednesday by threatening holy wrath upon you and your descendants for “robbing God”), the “First Fruit” scam is a 1 day cash windfall for the pimps. Before I go any further, I invite you to watch two brief videos (courtesy of spirituallysound) featuring “Pretty” Paula White – the original Florida Gator – pimping with wreckless abandon. Paula White’s “First Fruit” Scam! (breathe in…breathe out…breathe in the good…breathe out the bad) The Proverbs (in particular) are not “legal guarantees” from God (e.g “honor the Lord with the first fruit…so shall your barns be filled…) - they are written in hyperbolic language, based on the whole truth of the Old Testament.

How I Healed My Child’s Cavity If you ask most people whether or not a cavity can heal, the answer you would get 99% of the time is that it is impossible. Even conventional dentists would agree with this assessment. Ask a typical dentist at a routine cleaning whether you can heal a cavity on your own and he/she is likely to look at you like you’re crazy (I know this from experience). In stark contrast to this current conventional “wisdom”, Dr. Weston A. If you think about this in an open-minded manner leaving all preconceived ideas about cavities behind, doesn’t this make sense? Having read Dr. some years ago, I’ve been of the school of thought that cavities can indeed be healed with proper nutrition for some time.

I called the dentist right away and made an appointment. Not anymore. Probably. I didn’t change anything else. I was very very proud of him.
