Sniffling, Sneezing, Coughing, Aching, Stuffy Head ...
I've been suffering this entire week with a cold that, at this point, seems anything but common. I've been popping the Quils (both Day- and Ny-), drinking so much fluid that my bladder is threatening me with a cease-and-desist order, filling my desk-side trash bin with used Kleenex, and keeping my poor husband up nights with my incessant tossing and turning. Desperate, I turned to Google. Tea connoisseur (read: addict) that I am, I searched on tea for colds recipe. Here's a sampling of what I found:
- The Spanish solution: garlic, honey, and lemon tea
- The Chinese solution: Ginger-Scallion Tea
- "Tasty" Vinegar and Honey Beverage
- Onion Syrup
- Beef Tea
Oh, fuhgeddaboutit. I think I'll just have a hot toddy. Is it 5 o'clock yet??

I hope you get to feeling better *hugs*
Poor thing! My sister-in-law made me a fresh squeezed lemon/hot water/honey creation and oh my, did it help my throat when I was sick. Try it!
