Gimme some SUN

Let’s talk about the real reason for cold and flu season: excessive sugar consumption during the holidays & low Vitamin D levels can weaken your immune system, leaving you more vulnerable to colds and the flu?

Here’s why….

Sugar overload 🍪🍬🍰🍭🧁

Too much sugar suppresses your white blood cells, which are your immune system’s frontline defense. It can take hours for your immunity to recover after a sugar-heavy treat.

Low Vitamin D ☀️

Shorter days and less sunlight often mean a drop in Vitamin D levels, which are critical for immune health. Without enough, your body struggles to fight off infections effectively.

Stay healthy this season!

✔️ Balance those holiday sweets with nutrient-dense meals. Eat your veggies first!

✔️ Get outside during the day for sunlight, even if it’s chilly. Bundle up in a warm blanket and bring your tea.

✔️ Consider a Vitamin D supplement to keep levels optimal throughout the winter.

✔️ Prioritize rest, hydration, and stress management.

Take care of your immune system, so it can take care of you!

Even Rompers Needed French Cachet: McCalls Kiddy Patterns in 1928

Although rompers had been worn by American children before 1928, these were supposed to follow French fashion, as the words “L’Echo de Paris” indicated in the pages of McCalls Magazine. While Paris fashion houses were seen as the source of all new trends for women’s clothing, here they were supposedly also the source for children’s clothing.

The first rompers in America had straps at the shoulders and were touted as a way to let children get their vitamin D through exposure to the sun as a time when vitamins were the big news in popular science. These sewing patterns, sold by McCalls, instead took the idea of the blouse and attached it to the puffy short pants that made up rompers. Notice the details as a result: buttons, collars an cuffs in contrasting fabrics, and the pink one has a yoke from which gathers fall while the floral one has little shoulder pleats. The pink one looks like it has piping at the collar and cuffs while the floral one’s collar is shaped and top-stitched. A lot of detail for something for a small person. Of course, they expected them to be made in cottons, an easy to wash fabric, very practical for little people who roll around on lawns. 

The pink one has snaps at the crotch to make it easy for a little person to use the bathroom, while the floral one has a buttoned drop seat. Tots’ jumpsuits were thus more practical than those often sold to women these days. Not that I am suggested we improve on women’s rompers. It is ok by me if we grownups have shirttails to tuck in.

Photos of friends and neighbors getting some vitamin D3 the natural way - from the sun

I have a few thousand photos of friends and neighbors using my secluded property to catch some rats and get their vitamin D3. I have permission to use all photographs appearing in this section and all subsequent posts.

I’ll be posting a few photos here and there until the better part of the collection is online.
