Elderberry Syrup. I've heard of its powerful properties for quite some time. While lying flat on back and fed up with this cold, I decided to finally check it out. Aw, YouTube. It looked easy enough and I had the ingredients on hand, but didn't get the gumption until about 10:30p.m. to finally mix up a batch.
The kids, recently sequestered to bed, began calling out, "What's that smell?!". I suppose it may have had a funny smell, but my smeller wasn't in working order. I finished steeping it, added the honey and took a dose, several throughout the night, actually. I think it is rather yummy. Never listen to a kid when it comes to something that will help them feel better. It's all bad to them.
Give it a try yourself! (click on the link above to watch the video) Take 1 tablespoon daily for good health or 1 tablespoon every hour while sick.
I hope you are feeling better! It's horrible when mommy is under the weather... things WAIT. Bummer. Hope you have some good helpers! :)
