Lid fell off salt shaker and the salt went into the gravy pan. I scooped out as much as I could, but it is still very salty. Can I salvage this? Please say yes!

I used gravy for cats...sm
My cat had to go on vet-prescribed cat food for recurrent urinary tract blockage. He refused to eat the stuff until I added some gravy bought at the pet store. It has vitamins and minerals for cats. It is pricey, though. I weaned the cat from it gradually and now only give it to him once in a while as a treat. Good luck!
Biscuits and gravy, of course. It's the law.

good gravy
last time i watched it was when the tornado hit. It was just getting a little too out there for me. thanks for the update though. bet this goes down as the season for DH that is equated to the dream season in Dallas. sorry if that doesn't make sense, I'm a little tired.
thanks again.
Remedy
When I bring the clothes in from the line, I tumble them in the dryer briefly, about 5-10 minutes. This helps with the stiffness. (It also prevents another episode where my husband put on a flannel shirt, buttoned it all the way up only to find out there was a wasp inside!)
Homemade gravy, almost every time.

Biscuits, pie crust, and gravy...
absolutely awful at these!
Nope..no gravy boat.
Mine did not come with one either. Below are a few on ebay that might work. I like the last one too because it is round and could be used with one of your larger saucers. Hmm. I did not have S&P shakers either. Believe it or not I use these as my every day dishes. They are very, very durable, but then again I do not have children either. My mother always said, what good is china if you can only use it once a year! They do look lovely at christmas time on a gold charger plate. I also used candles shaped like pine cones and/or pine cones in the center piece. I paint also so I will probably end up feeling sorry for you and paint you one!

rescue remedy
Yup, it's good for animals in distress too - my aunt carries it in her car in case she finds a critter that's been struck by a car or something! It calms them right down.
We have a remedy for misspeaks. (sm)
If we put on our coats, even if we say the word dog or park, we can settle them down by giving them a bone of some sort. They know that if we have coats on and they are getting a treat, then they aren't going. Lets them down gently.
My gravy is so good but you need a knife to spread it!
What I have never been able to master was meatloaf and I love it. Mine always with anyway I make it comes out tasting just like cooked hamburger, no difference, might as well fix me a burger!
Seeking home remedy
I have been having horrible Charlie Horse's at night. I have been reading online that there is really no relationship with low potassium, magnesium, or calcium like most people think. The only suggestions I see are stretching or a hot bath.
Anyone have any suggestions of things to try? TIA!
wrinkles - best home remedy? sm
Can't afford facials in today's economy. I am a sun worshiper and it's taking a toll on my face, especially this winter. I have been moisturizing with some samples of face cream, sculpting lotion, etc., but I can't afford a hundred dollars for a little jar of stuff that may not work. I have exfoliated with sugar and honey, etc., and also have a big jar of cold cream as my heels are like sandpaper. Help! I look older than my stated age and it's very depressing. I am in the north so I can't get outside either! Winter blahs have set in and I don't want to get depressed. Any suggestions?Dermabrasion is out of the question, plus I have many allergies, afraid of permanent damage to my skin.
My favorite "home" remedy is
Milk of Magnesia used as a mask. (you just pour an amount about the size of a quarter into your hand and dab it on and let it dry for about 20 minutes, until it turns white and your skin itches, and then rinse with cool water). I heard this tip years ago by the black supermodel, Beverly Johnson, and I have been using it since. It is cheap, and works wonders on those tiny fine lines. I am 50 and look about 35. Whether it is the MOM, I don't know. I just know it is the best thing I have found after trying all the expensive remedies for years before I found this. I try to use it at least once per week, and don't forget your neck!!
Anyone have a good home remedy for
environmental allergies?
My 8 y/o is getting his butt kicked between the grasses and trees. This just started a couple of years ago. Have given him children's Claritin D but not sure I can see a difference. Am also wondering if I should just take him to the doctor and see how severe it may be? He's at home today from school - no fever, awful cough, runny nose, allergic shiners.
I make egg gravy with biscuits, sausage, and bacon.
is white country gravy with diced up hard boiled eggs. We love it over freshly baked biscuits with sausage or bacon on the side. It's an every Christmas morning thing with us. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
What's your favorite chapped lips remedy? sm
Usually ChapStick works for me but I've got a bad case of chapped lips right now that nothing is helping. What do you use?
I am so glad my grandmother's remedy worked for you
I called her my little brown mole- she had a garden and in the summer had such a nice tan. She firmly believed in using the Camphopenique for most everything. I did not remember it being used for mouth sores but learned that within the past year from her daughter, my aunt, when I suffered the same. I glean so much information from my elders- you just cannot beat helpful hints from people who have lived longer than us and seem to know so much. I am glad it helped you!
Funny - my cat thinks hairball remedy is actually a
PS: Re: the puking - If your cat eats dry food, are you feeding a high-quality variety like Iams, Science Diet, or Royal Canin, and not the junk-food? (Meow-Mix, Deli-Cat, etc.) That stuff gave a former male cat ureteral calcium stones that ended up killing him. A couple weeks before he developed urinary blockage, he started barfing alot.
A trip to the vet for a blood test might be in order, too. But if it's hairballs, be sure to add lots and lots of combing-out (even for a short-hair, to get the undercoat) to the hairball remedy routine. :)
Breakfast - homemade biscuits, gravy, scrambled eggs,
bacon, fried bologna and potato pancakes. It was scrumptious!!!!
Get some B-stress vitamins, Bach Rescue Remedy spray (sm)
Valerian Root to help you sleep. If all else fails ask the doc for something temporary for stress. I have been so stressed out before I couldn't stand it. Best wishes to you! I hope things get better soon. Take a day off!! A mental health day! Be lazy, take a hot bath, take a long walk.
Mine love Hartz Hairball Remedy...salmon flavor
