I'm barely functional, even with regular doses of vitamin ASA, and have gotten worse again since Thursday/Friday. So, I'm not going to be able to make it to any of the social outing I had planned.

con_girl -- I won't make it to your party tonigh. Sorry.

Everyone, no gaming tomorrow. Really sorry. I'm just not up to hosting it.

Bi-Poly supper -- nope, not that either.

I hope you feel better soon! I empathise with your cold! Really I do!

If you can get someone to do it (or get the stuff) for you I find a 'tea' made of sliced ginger and green onions is very soothing and helps speed the cold away.

Best of luck!

Another recipe for a ginger tea I saw recently was:

Corbet's Ginger Tea
(Because it's cold season :)

2 cups water
1 oz fresh ginger, sliced (yes, that's a good sized nub)
3+ cloves
2 cinnamon sticks, broken up
1 thick slice lemon
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 oz whiskey (optional!)
honey

Drop everything except the whiskey and honey into a pot, bring it to a boil, then simmer for 15 minutes. Strain, add booze and honey to taste.

Also good if you substitute apple cider for half the water, then top up with more cider to cool.

That looks good! But mine is easier- and when I am sick, I go for easy! :-D

Bug hugs love!

You do have a good point on easy. Your recipe if I make it myself; corbet's recipe if someone offers to make it for me? ;)

Thanks for the hugs.

I don't think I usually get this sick, either.
