Lately I’ve been dreaming of french food…it must have something to do with the cold winter days.  So I’ve spent most of today downloading french recipes.  In the end I caved in and went out to buy some utensils which will hopefully assist me in creating these delicious gems.  When I have suceeded with each recipe, I will post them on Digital Coffee Lounge but my failures will be in my blog

I also have one fault and that is the urge to improvise and alter the recipes slightly…hopefully I will not destroy the french cuisine as a result.

Au revoir for now.

Hi there
This is my first post in my blog.

I have not done much this week apart from staying at home trying to get better from the dreaded winter flu. I guess I can say that I have done my bit this winter .

Got sick last Thursday afternoon at work, started with the chills, then the aches. I decided to go home while I could still drive myself home, and tucked myself into bed.  I was ordered by the doctor to stay home all week.

The cough and headaches were the worst. I would be woken up between 4 and 5 in the morning with coughing fits and then fall asleep soundly for a couple of hours but would wake with splitting headaches.   Between the coughing and headaches, I found it hard to rest and it was exhausting doing just simple tasks.  I cannot believe how long it has taken me to get over this! The doctor said just to stay home and rest, so that was what I did.

A few simple old fashion remedies - hot green tea with honey and lemon, salt water to gargle for the sore throat, stay warm, fruits and veggies and lots of sleep.

I’ll write again later
