Do you ever wonder what to do with garlic peels after using the cloves in your meals? Well, our wise grandmothers knew just what to do! They had a clever trick up their sleeves that not only saved money but also offered a sustainable way to protect plants from diseases.
Garlic and onions are not only flavorful in our meals, but they also have natural properties that can work wonders in the garden. By repurposing garlic peels, you can create a powerful homemade infusion that acts as a shield against harmful fungi and parasites.
Making this infusion is incredibly easy. Here’s how you can do it:
- Fill a pot with 1 liter of water.
- Add the peels of 4 cloves of garlic to the pot.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for around thirty minutes.
- Once cooled, strain the liquid and pour it into a spray bottle.
- Spray the infused liquid onto the leaves and base of your plants to protect them from diseases.
By using this simple and homemade remedy, you not only reduce waste but also provide a natural and sustainable solution for your garden. Embracing the wisdom of our grandmothers, you can care for your garden in an eco-friendly way.
So, the next time you enjoy a meal with garlic, remember to preserve the peels and transform them into a potent gardening secret. Your plants will thank you, and you’ll continue the tradition of resourcefulness passed down by our wise grandmothers. It’s a wonderful way to connect with nature and nurture your garden with a touch of Grandma’s magic.
19-year-old Christian Burrows brings judges to tears with song about late brother
A 19 year old named Cristian walked in front of the judges and said he saw Ed Sheeran playing a show and wanted to be like him. Simon Cowell replied, “but you know with him it’s all about the songs?” Cristian replied, “I write songs myself” prompting Simon to ask, “Can we hear one of your songs?”. Slightly hesitantly, Cristian replies, “you can, yeah” and slowly added, “I’ve got a song that I wrote for my brother who passed away when I was only young”. Simon asked if he was sure he wanted to perform it and Cristian said, “I think I’m ready to.” He then showcased some of the most beautifully written lyrics heard in an audition leaving all the judges with a lump in their throat. Cristian’s heartfelt audition went on to receive over 14 million views as his authentic songwriting captured the hearts of millions. Watch video in comments below.
Talent shows are full of surprises and that is one of the reasons we get so addicted to them. We never know if that shy girl who’s trembling on the stage would be the next star, or if the boy who can’t wait to let his voice loose would get a pass for the next round. What we do know, however, is that some of the performances are so powerful they stay with us long after we see them.
When Christian Burrows took the stage of one of the most popular music talent shows, The X Factor, not many believed he would make many cry.
When Simon asked him what he prepared for them, Christian said he’d penned a song about the loss of his baby brother Nathan who passed away at just three months old.
“I’ve got a song that I wrote for my brother who passed away when I was only young,” he told Simon, who asked him if he was certain he wanted to perform such a personal and emotional song. Christian said he believed he was ready, but no one was prepared for what followed.
The lyrics of Thunder Buddy, which Christian performed in front of the entire nation, touched everyone’s heart.
Before his son saw the light of the day, Christian only performed it twice in his life; once for his mom and once for his dad.
He left the stage with four yeses and proud of his performance that left some of the judges in tears.
Following his appearance on the show, Christian spoke to Metro Online and shared the heartbreak his family suffered when his brother passed away. At the time, Christian was 2 and a half years old and although he doesn’t remember anything specifically, he said he couldn’t help but wonder what kind of relationship he and his late brother would have now.
