"Mr. Farmer, those are the prettiest tomatoes I ever saw. Could I buy a box. This is my last ten dollars."
Hot Toddy for the Body
Today I am serving myself a hot toddy. I am under the weather, sick as a dog. I have found an interesting recipe to share. The secret lies in the heating of ingredients.
Take 2 lemons and squeeze in saucepan. Add 4 - 8 tablespoons of honey. Take squeezed lemon rinds and cut up 1 lemon in slivers and add to the pot along with 1 cup of water. Bring all to a rolling boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes on low. Heat mug and add a generous shot of brandy (rum or whiskey may be used also). Bring saucepan back to rolling boil briefly and pour into mug. Enjoy this home remedy, the heat on your throat will keep the cold virus from spreading, the honey and brandy will soothe the throat. The vitamin C will help your immune system. Heating on the stove instead of the microwave will insure that ingredients come to a boil, which changes the chemistry and hence the medicinal properties are extracted. The lemon rind with pith (white stuff) is very beneficial. It is rich in vitamin C and calcium. The pith also has a healing calming metallic element.
