True Love and Vampire-Proofing Your Home

My new Main Man is Jerry Baker, Master Gardener and PBS host. Totally unrequited. *sniff* He doesn't even know I exist even tho' he took my money...or more correctly, Amazon.com took my money. Two great books with home made potions in them. Smokin' Hot Daughter says the cops are gonna arrest me on account of the baggies of human hair. If it repels the deer, it'll be worth it.
Yesterday I made an anti-fungal potion that seems to work well...made with molasses. smells good, too.
Tonite was a different story. Man Child was weed-whacking the garden border while I was spraying the tobacco tea and he said it really, really stunk. I know most varieties of critters and bugs think so, too. Not the deer. Or the flea beetles.
Then he came inside, where I'm brewing up a potion called Fungus Fighter Soil Drench--that one you pour into the ground around the fungus prone plants. It involves 4 garlics per gallon/water. When I say garlic, I mean the entire bulb, not the clove. My God, but it took a long time to crush all those bulbs for a three gallon batch.
Man Child went out before it started to boil, he came in once the aroma filled the house.
I think my home is now vampire proof, maybe for eternity. I may be undateable for that long, depending on how much garlic oil soaked into my skin when I was crushing all those cloves.
*sniff*

BUT MY SINUSES ARE CLEAR NOW, BY GHOD
