Fara's new favorite
Faragon’s new favorite anti-cold/flue treat…
(My Scottish side) One borrows, one lemon, two coffee spoons of honey, one cup and some boiling water.
Basically, an idea brought to you by Tips for sinus relief… “…Try some honey (a natural antiseptic) and lemon (a natural source of Vitamin C) dissolved in hot water…”
Maybe next time I’ll try with half a lemon it’s a bit sour right now, although this is hot, it tastes really fresh, the amount of honey is good.
Besides that, chicken soup, dropjes and eating a banana (lovely fruit, thanks A. for bringing that to my attention).

Heheh… You’re leaving half of the drink out. What this needs is a good shot of brandy… My dad used to make the exact same stuff when I had the flu, but with the added alcohol to knock me out -> more sleep :)
Also… The word you’re looking for is “licorice”.

Yeah, yeah yeah, I know :-)
But dropjes is more fun :-)
Anyway, I’m not in favor of drinking alcohol when I’m sick. Mostly, not on week nights anyway ;-)

Ah, but since you’re not going to the office anyway … …
:p
Nah, I understand :)
