Really, does it kill the weeds? I ask because I have an iris bed which is half weed and half iris and don't want to hurt the flowers but would love to kill the weeds.

I love this post.
I have used and recommended this to many folks over the years - we have alway's say you need a "Momma's Bath" and it reallly works.
One part Apple Cider Vinegar to three parts Epsom Salts in as warm a bath water as you can handle. Immerse yourself up to your chin, soak a cloth in it and lay across your face, relax. Soaks away aches, pains, and if you are sick, sweats out the toxins in your system. Towel off, jump into bed, and you will sleep like a baby. Works great when you have the flu, a bad cold, have worked out really hard and your muscles ache, etc.

I don't know if anyone has said this use for vinegar but it's good for bee stings. Soak a paper towel in vinegar and slap it on the sting. Works every time!!!! Also, one time my husband was cleaning jalapeno peppers and forgot to wash his hands, touched other parts of his body and was doing a jig, cuz the peppers were stinging and burning----all I could think of, was to pour vinegar over the areas, it took the burning and stinging right away.
