It has been a long time since I have posted.  I guess I have ended up using facebook much more than my blog these days.  It is quicker for one thing.

I wanted to share a recipe that we love for dealing with colds, flu, etc.  Twice now I have drank this tea and within 24 hours averted a sore throat and all that comes with that.  This is ginger-honey-lemon tea.  Grate a piece of fresh ginger so you have several teaspoons.  Put this in the bottom of a 2 quart thermos.  Pour in 2-3 tbsp. of lemon juice and 2-3 tbsp. of honey.  Then fill the thermos with boiling water and put the lid on.  AFter 20 minutes you can start to drink the tea.  Keep it in the thermos and the tea will be good for 2-3 days if it lasts that  long.  Great stuff.  We got this from www.herbmentor.com.

about this recipe. I took their online classes a long time ago after you shared about them here and I even printed off all of the recipes they shared. I really loved all of the great info I learned, but I guess it doesn't do me any good if I don't put it to use. ) :

I feel a cold coming on right now too - I think I will make myself some of this tonight. I just happen to have all of the ingredients. ( :

I just recently joined facebook too - it has been so much fun catching up with old schoolmates!

Hope all is going great for you and your family.

Love,
Mandi
