First, when possums play dead, they emit a greenish fluid from their anus. (Or so says google.) This often leads well-meaning humans to "put them out of their misery". Bet it works great against predators, though.
Second, coconut yogurt? REALLY rich, REALLY yummy. The brand I got, though, has a lot of stabilizers and additives and whatnot. There's one I can definitely taste. Not sure what it is, precisely, but it makes it taste artificial. I'm wondering if I could make my own without the help.
Third, tea tree oil? WORKS WONDERS. Had a bit of an infected cut on my finger. Put a little tea tree oil on it (dipped a q-tip in the oil and dabbed), and within half an hour the redness and swelling was gone, it didn't look infected anymore. And it didn't hurt. Put a little on again this evening, and the cut is visibly getting better. That's why the stuff is $10 for a teeny little bottle!
Both my sister and my mom have weird rashes they want to try it on, so I'll buy another bottle tomorrow for them to share, if I can get it at the Genovese (now a Rite Aid, and in between an Eckerd's).
