Good thing I am not a vampire.

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.

We have a place a few hours away called Cafe Risque. Signs on the interstate say "we bare all" all over the place, for miles and miles before you actually get there.

That's the kind of advert that sells.
