Concoction

The illness is still with me, but it was a bit easier to get through the day, and I logged off with an empty inbox and an ability to breathe. My coworker sent me a recipe for a concoction that's good for what ails one, and I loved the ingredients: onion, garlic, ginger, lemon, cinnamon sticks, cover with water and boil it up and-- well, that's when things went wrong. I hadn't figured out a vessel into which to strain the concoction, so Robin (who has officially picked up the lurgy from me) spilled most of it and even burned himself a little. So when I shop tomorrow I'll have to pick up a suitable vessel and try, try again. Because what little I got out of it was pretty tasty, and I do like all the ingredients. I just hope I'm well enough to shop tomorrow!
