today’s diet

I suppose it was only a matter of time.

Half of Chad’s family was sick when we were visiting. devcubber has been sick… My dad’s been sick…

It started here with Chad and now it’s on me. This season’s critter has latched on and is nagging.

It’s not a full-on “I want to die” sick… it’s more like a roaming congestion, moving from either side of your head, then to the throat, then into your chest, then back again.

We learned a homeopathic treatment for head congestion when we stopped at a tiny mountain hippy healthfood store in PA: Boil a cup of vinegar on the stove and inhale the fumes, (through your nose).

It sounds crazy – and it’s definitely not pleasant…. but it works…

We went over to Elise’s last night for hot chocolate, iced coffee and cookies and we all did a round of hits off the apple cider vinegar on the burner.

Worked like a charm – my head cleared for the rest of the night….

I shouldn’t bitch… I seem to only come down with something once-a-year…. And, so far, this is better than last year’s bout.

I shouldn’t blog either.
