on the mend

Ugh. Being sick with a headache and sore throat is no fun. So I'm looking after myself by drinking lots  of tea, with generous dollops of honey and huge slices of fresh lemon.

What's your sick day remedy?

    Hugs (even if I don't want them), hot sweet tea and hot toast.

    Feel better soon.

    Oh dear! So sorry to hear you've not been well Anna! It's been a bad season for coughs and colds though, hasn't it? Hope you're well on the way to recovery. Hmmm...I think nothing can beat bed rest for healing from an illness.

    Hope you feel better soon! My sick day remedy (for colds anyway) is honey and lemon tea and homemade vegetable soup.

    Oh hope you get better soon my dear!

    I have survived the whole winter with no cold or flu so I haven't needed any remedies this year which has been such a treat!

    Hope you feel better soon! I usually stick with hot soup in a mug not a bowl (I don't know why a mug is better it just seems to help if its in a mug!) Just now my asthma is quite bad and hot strong coffee and hot showers seem to be helping, oh and my duvet!
