I am sick, or getting there. My throat is slowly closing up and making it painful and hard to swallow. We all know the feeling; we all know what this is leading to. I noticed it last night as we were leaving a friends house. I took an antihistamine when I got home because it felt like a post nasal drip related thing, since my ears were a little sore too. This morning I was supposed to have brunch with my mom and my brother at Crack Whore Bare All, but I had to bail. Getting together would involve talking, and I just don't want to talk right now. I actually do work tomorrow, so I need to get as much resting as can be done to help my throat, as it will be very hard to do my job with my throat like this, and I can't call in right now.

On the stove right now, I have a small 1 qt pot, filled with about 2 cups of water, and 10 whole cloves of garlic simmering, or slowly roasting in the water. Once the garlic is soft enough, I will fish out the garlic and set on a plate, add some Better Than Boullion chicken stock paste, mash up the cloves, and add it back to the broth. I may have some of the beef jerky my co-worker gave me, because it is terribly spicy, and I need to jumpstart my sinuses and warm my blood to heal.

I hope the cloves soften up soon, so I can have my roasted garlic soup as it is yummy. And good for me.
