Review # 1 was written on 2015-10-17 00:00:00 Jonah Chavez This is really not much of a book, per se. It reminds me of one of those tiny little paper booklets that you could buy in stores for about $.25 back in the day. It is basically a list of old wives' remedies from Japan, and it probably took less than hour to read. Some of the remedies, like putting green onions in your nostrils are crazy sounding, and others are similar to ones I've learned from my parents and grandparents here in the U.S., but the author gives the science behind each remedy, and that is really interesting. I haven't tried any yet, but I think that I will. In any case, it is a book you likely won't forget.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-10-09 00:00:00 Logan Ross Did you know that cleaning your toilet bowl every day is lucky and brings good fortune? Clean it by splashing a little mouthwash in the bowl and then using the toilet brush. There are dozens of great tips in this book. It was a fun read. I love creative ideas. As a a Michigander I was excited to know I can stay warm this winter by doing deep bows. And I can keep my feet warm by putting chili peppers in my socks.
