A Singer's Remedy

So we moved. More on that later.

Last night Sooj and K showed up on the doorstep. That's always a really nice find, even when expected. We hung out here for a while and got them settled in, then had Shivian over to hang out for a bit. There was I-HOP involved, and then more house time.

Sadly Sooj is feeling under the weather, and has had some throat problems the last few days. As she has a concert tomorrow she's needed a bit of a vocal pick-me-up. Here's an easy, classic remedy for a sore throat and cough. I like this recipe because it promotes healing of the throat as well as easing the cough and the discomfort.

Ingredients
1 Tb Yarrow Flower
2 t Licorice Root (chopped)
Juice of One (1) Lemon, fresh
1 Tb Honey, more to taste

All ingredients preferably sourced organically/locally. Steep Yarrow and Licorice in approx 4 fl oz water (about 2/3 capacity of average mug) for 5 minutes. Remove herbs and add remaining ingredients. Stir well, drink as needed.
