Cures What Ails You

So many people at work are sick with colds or allergies today. I left with a lump in my throat, convinced that I, too, was working on a cold.

Coffee? Tea? I thought, on the way home, convinced the hot liquid would help.

My husband's feeling the pain, too.

"If it weren't so darned warm, I'd eat chicken soup," he said. Ditto for the coffee and tea - it just has no appeal when the weather approaches 80, and we haven't fired up the A/C yet.

Guess I'll just have to dig into the freezer and come up with a grocery-store remedy: Cookies 'N Cream ice cream. Yum.
