Home Made Baby Wipes

I have this recipe for home made wipes because I know you are all about the saving of the money!

1 1/2 cups water
2 tbs baby shampoo
1 tbs baby oil
no name paper towel (cheap generic kind)

Take the roll of paper towel and cut in half.
Put half of the paper towel in a deep container with a lid. (We use old tobacco containers that have been donated)

mix the water, baby oil and baby shampoo together and pour over the paper towel. If the paper towel still seems dry in a few minutes feel free to add water until it takes on a wipe consistency.

there you have the wipes! nice and cheap! (Walmart has paper towel that is 95cents for 2 rolls :D)

Sausages

Enough for 2 - 3 sausages each.

Two ways to make large amounts.

1- Grease foil and grease again 2 lg pans.

2 - Throw all sausages into a foil -lined roaster.
Cover and bake at 350 for 1.5 hours, stirring occassionaly. Take off lid for more browning.

Using left over ham, boil ham pieces, chopped onion, sliced carrotts and celery.
Bring to a boil and add dried yellow split peas. Simmer until tender.
Puree if wanted.

Oven Scrambled Eggs

6 Dozen Large eggs
7 Cups Hot milk
1 tsp Salt

Beat eggs. Add milk and salt. Pour into 2 lg greaserd baking pans.
Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes, scraping bottom and sides of pans frequently.
Optional : Add chopped ham/green onions/peppers etc before cooking.

Alternate method. Works great at home!
Mix together eggs and milk in a microwave safe container.
Microwave on high for 5 minutes. At 2.5 minutes open microwave and fluff eggs with a fork.
If not cooked totally can return to microwave for a minute at a time. DO NOT over cook as will go watery again.
