A Dollop Of Honey



Gretchen is just at the tail end of the cold she's been battling since the weekend, so of course now I have it. Sniffles, stuffy head, all around foggy feeling. 

I try to stay away from taking too many meds when I'm sick, but I will say that a swig of Buckley's sure clears the sinuses when need be. Actually, when my throat is tickling, I'm all about tea, honey, Echinacea, extra doses of vitamin C and lots of veggies. Lots of rest is also high priority, but it doesn't always get treated that way. Busy as a bee.

Thankfully, I've got a steady stream of mint tea happening right now, so that helps. And I believe soup will be my lunchtime fare. 

Hope you're all well, mes amis! These summertime colds are the pits!
