Since it's summer and time for sunburns...especially in the 100+ weather here in San Antonio...a remedy for the burn is always a good idea. Fill a one quart jar with equal parts milk and ice and two tablespoons of salt. Soak a washcloth in the mix and apply to sunburned areas leave for 20 minutes...reapply as needed. The milk will absorb the heat from the sun...a good little recipe for relief from sunburn.
Also a nice idea for an Adult ice cream float....scoop some butter pecan in to tumblers and top with a dark beer with a little freshly grated nutmeg on top. ;)
When the kids are feeling lazy and there is nothing to watch. Nothing saves the day like Netflix...if you have younger kids, Fraggle Rock episodes are available for online streaming...songs, connectedness, environmentalism, and cute muppets...who could ask for more..lol
For those more spiritually- minded tonight is the full moon...the full moon for June is called the Strong Sun Moon...June is named for the Roman Goddess Juno...Goddess of Marriage and well-being of women. So a romantic dinner is a necessity...lol. Also this is the time of year to honor the fairies...leave offerings of ale,milk,fruit,or bread. Might just help your garden grow. *Don't spill the milk though, they might not ever leave your house and cause all kinds of mischief*
All right that is enough from me...Be Blessed*

I haven't tried milk on sunburns before (being the Pasty Person I am, I burn several times a year through SPF 90 sunscreen). I usually rub down with vinegar and then shower (mostly because I can't stand the smell of myself). It takes away the sting, but the smell will curl your eyelashes, I'll try your recipe next time.
