Other uses for olive oil

And I think it was she who wrote that Italian women used to use it as skin nourishment. Has anyone here any experience of either? I rather like the idea of a much cheaper version of Clarins in my kitchen cupboard! When our daughter was tiny and nearly bald an Italian neighbour advised us to shave her head and rub olive oil into her scalp, and in no time at all she would have a lovely head of glossy black hair. Needless to say her hair remained wispy and blonde ;~) It had worked for all of the Sicilians on the nursery where I worked at the time - no idea why :~( Oh, except for the one with red hair. When I was young, my uncle used to tell me that if I ate up my bread crusts my hair would go curly. For me, this was just one more good reason not to eat crusts. -- Kay |
