zpacks don't work for me either. I have to have 2 and insurance only pays for 1. It's not worth the government's money or my time to just try 1. Been there, done that several times and it just doesn't work for me. Hope you feel better very soon.

Thank you Naomi for the suggestions.

Erika is still sick, but doing much better tonight.

She is much cheered by my having gotten her a kitten (3 mos. old) for her upcoming birthday.

When I was a kid, my Mom used to feed me one of those hot toddies, minus the whiskey. And as best I can remember it did help.

My Mom's cure for colds and sore throats was a hot toddy of whiskey, lemon, water and honey.

Hi Naomi....Loved your "pop in" last night....somehow, I knew you weren't feeling well...you usually stop in more often. Hope you're feeling much better soon! Interesting remedy....pure honey...! Will try that with the next sore throat... I'd known about hot water, honey, and lemon juice (and whiskey or rum if one wanted) but not pure honey in the mouth for a few minutes....

This will be an indoor day, I think....went to get some groceries yesterday because the forecast looked like we might be house bound for a few days. Hubby went to work again today....he's got lots to do at the office, but you know how men are....have to alway prove they can beat the weather, no matter how yucky it is outside...

Saw this a month or two ago and really liked it....Reflections of Life Can Be A Beautiful Thing....

Naomi, I woke up with a very sore throat this morning so I tried your honey remedy and my throat feels much better. Somewhere at some time I remember reading about the medicinal properties of honey, but forgot about it until your post. Thank you! And I do hope you feel better soon.
