TEA

Of the ginger, honey and lemon kind. I'm sick. I feel like I've had this cold for ages. It's the horrid kind where you really have to continually breathe through your mouth, eating is boring. I can't taste a thing, but yet craving sweet food and really salty and spicy food too, even though I'm not enjoying any of it. I know woe is me hey?! I'm so behind on everything, but mainly illustration work, and it's frustrating because I have some lovely things to be getting on with. Stanley has been really poorly too, all last week a hacking cough, a cold, high temperature and the pleasant stuff that is diarrhoea. We have enjoyed a lot of 'uddles' which are always nice even for all the wrong reasons. He's not wanted any food at all and only now eating a few bits so I'm worried that I'm now on set back having made some eating progress.

For now though I'm on a tea kick using the below ingredients. Ok so it's not rocket science but I thought I'd show you the cordial I love as it delivers a really good ginger hit but also a little sweetness too. I'm adding extra ginger beacause hey I love it and I reckon it can only do me good. If you're not into honey any sweetener would do, but I like honey and even better actually know the beekeeper!

I loathe all those medicine powdered lemon things, they taste gross to me and I feel they aren't doing me any good beacuse they don't taste real...anyway maybe that's just me but I prefer my homemade tea blend. Anyone else out there got any good fix up drinks, meals or tips?
