Little bit sick today...finally got the flu that I thought I had so sneakily managed to avoid. Massively dosing myself with such wondrous herbs as Echinacea, Cat's Claw, Citrus Seed Extract and Garlic.In fact I think I'll share my recipe for my cure all tea...
Into a big pot of water squeeze the juice of 3 lemons, grate some ginger, add 4 cloves of garlic finely chopped, a chopped up chilli or two or add a teaspoon of dried chilli powder, big dash of Apple Cider Vinegar, dash of Cayenne Pepper and a spoon or two of honey (Manuka is best)...simmer gently for about 10 mins (and you can reheat it as much as you need to) and drink as much as you can every hour or two. Ok..you may lose friends due to reeking of Garlic but it tends to warm your bones, fix a sore throat and kill off infection. I can handle that. (And I think it might make a nice Pasta sauce..hmmm)
On a more collegey note. Delighted with how the newsletter is turning out. We've all put in a good effort and it's actually quite interesting. When we met to delegate different parts to each member of the group I think we made good choices, due to Peter's addiction to reading National Geographic anyway and Tom's love for looking up not so useless information and the like.
Also I am looking forward to meeting with the new mentors from second year that our class rep Amy has organised a meeting with. It'll be nice to see how they found first year and get some tips.
See..when I started writing this I was grumpy and sick, I had some of my cure tea and I've gotten all upbeat all of a sudden...yay! haha.
PS: if anyone wants some Echinacea seeds then I have some to pass on
