I have been a loyal guest, staying at Bettina Network homes for a very long time.<\/p>\n
Last year, I went to the kitchen in one of my homes very early in the morning and found the host bent over the kitchen sink with her head in a pot of steaming water. \u00a0Needless to say I was amazed and waited in the doorway to see what this was about.<\/p>\n
She had a pot of boiling water, just off the stove, and was letting the steam from the water over her face. \u00a0When she finished, after about a minute, and poured the water into the sink, of course, we had to talk. \u00a0I made the coffee and she spilled the secret. \u00a0Every morning when she wakes she boils a pot of water –\u00a0“ed. note<\/strong> in a glass Corning pot” – puts her head over the water for a minute or two because this is the way she keeps her nose hydrated during the winter so it doesn’t get dry and give her a hard time with a little bleeding on those very dry days.<\/p>\n I tried it when I went home and found it works. \u00a0I have always had problems with dry nose during the winter. \u00a0When I blow my nose during the day it always comes with a little blood on the tissue. \u00a0That didn’t happen this year. \u00a0Thanks to my experience in the Bettina Network.<\/p>\n If you want a great place to stay in Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA. try this house and ask for the “doll room”. \u00a0I thought it was great and enjoyed my stay immensely. \u00a0My return visit this past weekend was a lovely surprise. \u00a0Some of the rooms inside the house have been redone and the doll room has some upgrades. \u00a0My daughter and I always stayed in that room. \u00a0Now she is too big to play with dolls, but she gave in and had a grand time playing with the dolls because the room now also contains a doll house to go with the dolls in the room.<\/p>\n I hope you write a blog on the room which has had its walls upholstered with the most beautiful fabric – and is well padded under the fabric. \u00a0I could make many comments about that, but I will refrain. \u00a0Just write about how you upholstered those walls. \u00a0It is so much nicer than wallpaper and so lush. \u00a0If I weren’t so committed to the doll room – where I play even when my daughter does not join me – I would ask for that room, but I just peeked in and loved what I saw.<\/p>\n ________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n
