woke up with a damn sore throat.
i hate that.
i am hoping that if i cram myself full of vitamins it will go away.

i got up early yesterday and took ross to the airport.i console myself that we will only have to endure this for three more months and that i will see him next week.
it was so great to have him here, especially the last few days when we weren't running around like crazy people trying to make wedding plans.
we went out to chiaroscuro and hung out with janet and sarah and john and larry and lou and mike gil. we had a nice evening with john and sarah on sunday and spent a lot of time watching movies and climbing around great falls.

for v-day we went out to the iron gate in DC. it is the only restaurant i have ever been to that served brussel sprouts as a main vegetable. good thing i don't mind them.

Hope you feel better, sweetie! [hugs]

I've a tea mix that I use for mornings like that (although it does nicely for many things) - that can be really helpful. Both for nascent possible colds and just helping you to feel better once the thing is full blown. If you'd like, I could send you the "recipe."

that would be awesome. i have some of that gypsy cold care stuff, but that is mainly for sinuses (and doesn't seem to work on mine) and some throat coat...but i have discovered that i don't like the taste of licorice in my tea...i like anise fine after indian food. i've you've got something better i'm eager to try it.
i grow herbs, but i haven't gotten in to making tea with them much (probably in part because i just started peppermint this year - in a pot so it won't get invasive) and a lot of the things i plant die over the winter when i really want other teas.
