haaaaCHOO!!!!

It's cold season...I cannot breathe. My nose is stuffed up yet it is dripping too. Lovely. My eyes are red. My throat scratches. Fun, fun, fun. I swear I never used to get sick. I blame the munchkin. He had the major snots last week and then I thought he was getting better. Now that is gone and he has a little touch of a cough. I guess it is Matt's turn to get it next? Any suggestions to make us all feel better? ;-)

  1. GARLIC SOUP! Andy made it for me before he went out of town, and I had it for lunch three days in a row last week. My cold was gone super quick, it was quite amazing. (If you need a recipe, let me know, I will try to translate Andy's handwriting). :)

    Also, lots of vitamin C and Cold-Eez.

  2. C - I need the recipe!

    L - Chuck and I take lots of Emergen-C, but pretty much you just have to get used to being sick. Just be thankful it isn't a stomach bug. I hate catching those from the kids. hang in there.

  4. Sorry it took so long for me to reply. Hopefully you don't need it anymore, but I'll post the recipe. In return, I am tagging you Lisa. See my blog for the rules!

    GARLIC SOUP

    8-10 cloves of garlic, peeled & chopped
    2 tbsp olive oil
    1 large and 1 small can of Swanson chicken broth
    2 eggs
    1-2 tbsp white vinegar

    Saute garlic in oil in soup pot, just to soften them. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, separate egg whites from yolks, save both. Whisk vinegar into bowl of yolks. Once it boils, add egg yolk / vinegar mixture to the pot. Then add egg whites and whisk.

    If there are lots of floaters in the soup, you did it right! :)
