Beautiful hair and soft skin.....
These have been passed down from my great-grandmother:

Hair:

1 cup of beer (any brand)
2 eggs

Pour beer into an open container, or just leave it opened until it's flat (about 24 hours). Beat eggs thoroughly and then add to beer, mix until incorporated (you can use a food processer or anything similar). Apply mixture to dry, unwashed hair. Let it set for 10 minutes then shampoo as usual.

Soft Skin:

1/2 banana (great use of overrippened ones)
2 tbls of honey (I perfer Toupelo honey)

Mash banana completely and add honey. Mix thoroughly, then rub into any dry spots, including your face! Wash off any excess. Yes, it's messy but you wouldn't believe what it will do to those problem areas. I have the softest feet in the world!

"One of the annoying things about believing in free will and individual responsibility is the difficulty of finding somebody to blame your problems on. And when you do find somebody, it's remarkable how often his picture turns up on your driver's license."
