We’re all human. We catch a cold, we get scrapes and minor burns, and upset stomachs. While you can’t always prevent common health ailments you can make sure you have a well-stocked medicine cabinet to keep the things on hand that will help make life more comfortable and avoid a trip to the doctor. To help you decide what’s really necessary, we’ve compiled a list of medicine cabinet must haves.
Worth Noting: Although most medicine cabinets are found in bathrooms where humidity 
and heat abound, it isn’t the ideal place to store prescription or over-the-counter medicines (vitamins, antihistamines, pain relievers like Tylenol and aspirin, Pepto-Bismol, etc). Instead, store those items in a cool, dark and dry place in another room, and out of reach of children.
Take stock: Pharmacists and doctors advise that you clean out your medicine cabinets once a year and replace any outdated medicines or other supplies that may be damaged or old. To avoid contaminating the environment, follow label instructions when disposing expired drugs. When in doubt, talk to your pharmacist. You can always bring outdated drugs to Lindo’s Pharmacy for safe disposal.
Always check with your doctor or pharmacist first before using any over-the-counter treatment or medicine.
Plain Hand Soap
Old fashioned soap and water is still the best way to clean cuts and scrapes.
Isopropyl alcohol
Also known as rubbing alcohol, isopropyl alcohol kills bacteria on contact. Use for cleaning personal items like tweezers and nail clippers. (more…)

Everyone knows kids love pizza so why not pack a healthier version in their lunch box. Filled with cheese, ham, sun-dried tomatoes, and zucchini (in disguise) these muffins are a savory kid-approved meal. These muffins freeze well so make a batch and freeze to keep on hand. Pack them in the lunch box in the morning and they will thaw before lunch break.
Makes approx. 16 muffins
Shhh! We won’t tell if you won’t tell. Grated zucchini – the secret ingredient kids won’t even know is there!
Ingredients
2 cups self-rising flour
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup zucchini, peeled and grated
1 cup cheese, grated
1 cup ham, diced
1/4 cup olives, sliced finely
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 tablespoon dried Italian herb seasoning
Directions
1. Place the flour, dried herbs, zucchini and cheese in a large bowl and mix well to coat the zucchini and cheese.
2. Add the ham, olives and sun-dried tomatoes and mix to combine.
3. Add the eggs and milk and mix just until all flour is combined. Don’t over mix. Over mixing will lead to tough muffins.
4. Spoon mixture into muffin trays and bake in a 350°F oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until muffins spring back when touched and have browned slightly.

When it comes to the school year, packing a healthy and nutritious lunch for your child can be challenging and time-consuming. Pasta to the rescue! Served hot or cold, most kids love pasta and it really is a healthy option for the lunchbox.
Pasta provides complex carbohydrates so your child gets steady energy without feeling hungry just a few hours after eating. Choose whole grain varieties for fiber and folic acid and add a variety of sauces, along with nutritious toppings, and you’ll please even the most finicky eaters.
Add vegetables for essential vitamins and minerals and lean protein for building muscles (beans, shrimp, tuna, grilled chicken). Seafood like shrimp, salmon and tuna also provide Omega-3, a fatty acid that helps keep your child’s brain, eyes, and heart healthy.
From cool salads to chill-chasing soups and casseroles, we’ve found a few kid-approved recipes that make smiles, tempt appetites, and help get them through the day.
