Few people realise that a mixture of minced tripe and chopped onions makes a wonderfully soothing face mask. Simply boil the tripe for the usual four to five hours, place into a frying pan with a handful of finely chopped onions, fry in lard for two hours, and then place in the refrigerator until chilled. Apply using a standard kitchen spatula, or a trowel, much the same as one applies one's make-up. Et voilà, a face mask that tastes and smells as good as it feels!
Would you believe that the very same mixture is a cure for haemorrhoids? Simply apply sixteen times each day for a month and the subsequent shrinkage is nothing short of a miracle!
And ladies, do you suffer from tired eyes, especially after studying correspondence from the Queen, or some other friend who is really more like a twin sister? There's nothing so soothing to a pair of beautiful baby blues than a couple of boiled turnip slices. Simply place over the lenses of your glasses and hey presto... instant relief!
