Ruggles the tiny Shih-Tzu puppy was rescued from a puppy mill and then introduced to a new friend to signal a brand new beginning. His unlikely pal, Chompers the kitten, was found alone under a porch when she was only two days old. Watch as they meet each other for the first time in the video below.
Despite their rough starts to life, both Ruggles and Chompers are happy and healthy and were adopted into loving forever homes. Ruggles went on to become an official ambassador for the shelter that rescued him, the Cherokee County Animal Shelter. He visits schools to help educate kids on shelter dogs and puppy mills. How sweet!
A note from YouTube on their adoptions: “For those wondering why they were not adopted together… that was the shelter’s original plan, but Chompers (true to her name!) became too rough with little Ruggles, and due to his health problems, it was determined that it was in both of the animals’ best interest to be adopted separately. They are both happy and very much loved!”
Grandma’s Magic: Transforming Garlic Peels into a Gardening Secret
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.
