LOL, thanks. I’m not sure what the true medicinal value is, but it does help to clear up laryngitis quite handily. It’s a very soothing tonic, and easy to get more down the patitent

Darren41, I like your medicine. All I have to offer is some homemade Turkey noodle soup.

My favorite for sore or irritated throat is genmai cha. The toasted rice must provide some soothing gelatinous starches. Go to the doctor if it gets too bad, okay?

In my household, miso soup is the cure-all for colds. Something about that nice salty taste soothes the throat and the seaweed can’t help but up your mineral intake.

Still, Darren41’s brew certainly has its points of interest…

Mix that (the sailor Jerry’s rum) with some tea and lemon and you got a pretty potent drink.

1.) brew a cup of tea, about twice as strong as you normally like it.
2.) add in a capful of conecntrated lemon juice (or 1/2 fresh squeezed lemon.
3.) add 1-1/2 shot if rum of chioce. (I use Bacardi 151)
4.) add honey to sweeten to taste.

Very potent, after about 3 you don’t care how you feel. It’s helped me through several bouts of bronchitis, laryngitis, and head colds.

You are all loves. thanks so much for all the lovely good wishes and thoughts and recipes.

My ex-wife makes chicken soup in very much the way that Kamatu’s sister does. Makes me sorry I fucked that up now, eh? Ah, well.

Hopefully page 335 will update on Tuesday. Gonna go back tot he doc and complain that his stuff didn’t cure me, so hopefully I’ll get the magick pills and be on top again. In the mean time, there’s Sailor Jerry’s Rum.

Don’t worry about us, we’re not going anywhere. Just rest up and don’t relapse later.

My sister makes some truly rich chicken soup. She takes a whole chicken and boils it to get all the juice out of it. Then she fishes the carcass out and sets it aside. Then she puts the second whole chicken in to stew while pulling the meat of the first chicken’s bones. When the second one is done, she pulls it out to get the meat off its bones. Then she freezes one chicken worth of meat, dumps the other back in the stock and adds her veggies and spices. Double good rich chicken broth.

Oh yeah, fattening as heck too, but a lot of nutrition in a little bit of broth.

Just hope you will be well soon, but it’s best to be sure you are 100% ok before you do too much.
