Try this one:
Cold be gone Lemon-Aide
1 cup water
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
In a small saucepan, combine water and juice. Bring mixture to a simmer, stir in honey. Add more honey or lemon to your taste. If you're REALLY sick, through in some homopathic remedies or dissolve a Vitamin C pill. To do this, you may need a little more water.

NEW RECIPE!
Just in time for Halloween!
This one, I bring to you DIRECT from the food network.
Carmelized Pumpkin Seeds
1/2 cup butterscotch caramel sauce
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon extract
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 cups pumpkin seeds, roasted
1 cup almonds, crushed
Lightly coat baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large skillet, slowly melt the caramel sauce and sugar. When melted stir in cinnamon extract and cayenne. Continue cooking until mixture reaches a temperature of 310 degrees F. Stir in pumpkin seeds until completely coated. Spread caramelized seeds onto the baking sheet and sprinkle with crushed almonds. Separate seeds with wooden spoon until cooled.
You can purchase Pumpkin Seeds already roasted. If you are using seeds from a fresh pumpkin, clean and rinse them, then place them on a cooking sheet and spray with cooking spray. Roast for 1 hour at 250 degrees. Stir them every 15 minutes. The actual seed is inside the hull. The hull is edible.

S'been a while
Sorry that I haven't posted recently... Ooops.
Well. I am over it. Jeff and I are done. I broke up with him this afternoon.
I've realized that I was never really interested in him. I am almost embarrassed that I made such a big deal about it in the first place. But, I'm actually glad for it all. I've learned a lot about myself in the past few weeks.
I think that really, I was so happy to see that there was someone who liked me and wanted to be with me. I know it sounds desperate and lame, but that's the way it is.
It wasn't until a few days ago that I started to see things about his personality that really bug me. He's just a little too mean sometimes. He's a little snobby and he isn't very confident. A lot of times I feel that he talking so the people around him will think he's smart. I used to do it too. Sometimes I still do. April mentioned that maybe it's because I am trying to change myself that I am so hyper-sensitive to it. It doesn't matter.
It came down to the facts. Physically, he's okay; intellectually, yeah he's smart but he's also pretentious and snobby; emotionally, I am getting nothing and I have NO interest in sleeping with him. Now, that last thing, I wasn't even THINKING about doing anytime soon, but still. If there is nothing there, there's no point in pursuing it. At all.
Looking back on it, there is a common denominator for ALL the relationships from which I walked away. I have some thinking to do about what I want. I suppose that being this age, having these troubles, is fine.
And I'm fine. Really. Today at work was the first when I didn't have to think about it. Last night, before our date (WHICH WAS TERRIBLE!) I was dreading it. I so desperately wanted to call and cancel, but I knew he wanted to talk to me, so we went out. It was simply bad. Strained, mean and cold. And the food wasn't too good either. Oh well.
Now you know. Let's move on.
