Dear Friends,
We are almost into the Holiday Season, but t'is also the season wherein many become sick due to the cold weather. Trust me, I know!
Two weeks ago, I was hit with a bad cold. I knew something was coming when the week prior, I had a mild sore throat. This is the usual indicator that I’m going to be suffering with a week of congestion, sneezing, coughing, and physical weakness. I thought I had it under control with extra Vitamin-C, periodically sitting in the steam room to sweat it out, and getting to bed as early as possible for a good night sleep; but alas, it was too late.
I was not feeling 100%, but with too much on my agenda to cancel; the following Monday, I bundled up and headed into the city. By that afternoon, I could barely talk and when I did, I thought I was going to choke!!! I was so absolutely congested, I could not breathe through my nose ...I had no choice but to breathe through my mouth; which as you can imagine, made communicating difficult. I ended up having to leave the city early with only one appointment left on my agenda ...an appointment with my bed and cough drops!
So on that note, I definitely believe prevention is better than cure. For solid guidance on how to prevent the flu and/or the best course of treatment should you be so unfortunate to get it; check out Stats & Facts for the "CDC's Take 3 Actions to Fight the Flu" and much more.
If you are one of the unfortunate ones; then perhaps someone near and dear to you will bake a few cookies for you to munch on while you recover. The "Halloween Thumbprint Cookies" in Let’s Dine! are quick and easy to bake, and will definitely put a smile on your face! Enjoy!
